Sambro to launch range of slime-related products from April.
Nickelodeon International is teaming up with Sambro for the launch of a range of slime-related products.
Nickelodeon – which has been synonymous with slime since it introduced the green semi-viscous substance to kids in 1982 – has secured a licensing deal with Sambro for the new line.
The hero product in the Sambro range is the Nickelodeon Slime Blaster. The pump action style device is capable of projecting the infamous green liquid up to seven metres and comes with ten packs of instant slime in two colours.
Also available is the Hyper Blaster Accessory Pack, which contains a holster for ‘rapid sliming’ as well as ten packs of instant slime. There are also instant slime refills available in packs of ten.
In addition, Nickelodeon and Sambro will launch a ‘make your own’ range. Comprising slime powder and slime activator kids can mix, shake and make green, pink and blue slime. Glow in the dark, glitter and noisy tubs of slime will also be available.
Mark Kingston, svp, Nickelodeon and Viacom Consumer Products, Viacom International Media Networks, said: “Slime is iconic and synonymous with both Nickelodeon and free spirited fun.”
Nikki Samuels, licensing director at Sambro, added: “We love working with Nickelodeon and this partnership is one of the best yet. Slime is one of the most popular crazes among kids today. This line enables kids to both make slime and get creative in its applications.”
