Children can take SpongeBob and his pal Patrick Hula Bobbles (sold separately) along for under-the-sea and on-land adventures. The 4" figurines are great for play and display, and are articulated at the waist for tons of silly hula bobble fun. They also feature a suction cup base for hula action on the go. Launch date: February 2007.
— "We really don't deal with licensed products. I suppose SpongeBob might be one for us," said Kim Duff, manager at
Giggles Toys & More in Bozeman, Mont.
— "We might sell about six a month,” Duff noted in spring 2007.
— "The Hula Bobble captures the essence and humor of SpongeBob. It's fun and comes to life anywhere, partly because it has a suction cup on the bottom for grip on various surfaces,” Tim Thompson, vice-president of marketing with Imperial Toy, told
TDmonthly.
