Keeping up with the kidults FLAIR 0208 643 0320 | sales@flairplc.co.uk From Godzilla vs. Kong to Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (TMNT) vs. Cobra Kai, all the way through to Let’s Glow Studio, the Flair portfolio packs a whole lot of appeal for adult collectors and social media users. First up, and ideal for adult collectors, is the TMNT vs. Cobra Kai collection. The pairing brings together two of the hottest martial arts properties for the first time, seeing the worlds of the Turtles and Cobra Kai collide. The range launches with an assortment of four two-figure packs to collect. In each pack, there are two fully articulated figures: a Turtle with his signature weapon and a Cobra Kai Figure presented in a recognisable outfit. MonsterVerse is another popular collection for adult collectors. The range now includes a selection of movie figures, launched to support the box office release of Godzilla vs. Kong. The MonsterVerse Godzilla vs. Kong range includes 6in articulated movie figures, which each feature removable chunks of flesh! There are also larger articulated characters available: look out for the 11in Giant Godzilla and Kong assortment and the 13in Mega Godzilla and Mega Kong figures, which have lights and sounds features, and a unique mechanical battle action.
Finally, for adults who love spending time on social media, Let’s Glow Studio comes with the materials and tools needed to create retro-reflective accessories that will light-up in photos and videos, with no app required. Driven by social media trends, including glow stick challenges and the sharing of dancing/fashion content, the Let’s Glow Studio content-creation craft kit is billed as a market-first. The kit comes with retroreflective accessories for hair, shades, nails and more, as well as a LED Selfie Clip, called the StarLight Clip. By attaching the StarLight Clip to any phone, tablet or laptop, users can capture colour changing visuals when the light is shone at their retro-reflective accessories. The StarLight Clip has 16 colour options, as well as four lightchanging sequences, and speed control. Let’s Glow Studio topup packs are also available.
