A toy and entertainment franchise, MONSTER ZAPPERS launches with a national direct response television campaign marketing the MONSTER ZAPPERS Deluxe Starter Kit, a toy product that will contain everything a child needs to take care of any under-the-bed, unwelcome nighttime guests. This unique spray toy stops monsters in their tracks, and turns them into fun and friendly little creatures, called Zapsters -- allowing parents and kids around the world to sleep easier tonight!
"MONSTER ZAPPERS is a product designed with the emotional needs of children in mind. All children share fears that often present as nightmares or monsters. This product will help millions of children take control of their fears and find restful sleep. What a great way for a child to feel in control of their overwhelming feelings. So much of children's lives are out of their control. This imaginative product offers parents a way to hand children a healthy and effective means of taking control of their own fears. When children have big fears, parents can now hand them a big way to effectively fend them off," said Los Angeles-based child and family therapists Robert C. Schneider, MA, MFT and Melissa Brohner-Schneider, MA, MFT, ATR.
The MONSTER ZAPPERS Starter Kit includes a MONSTER ZAPPERS Collectible Spray Zapper, a set of 2 packets of MONSTER ZAPPERS secret formula which, when combined with water, will quickly and easily transform monsters into soft, cute, cuddly (and fang-free) characters called "Zapsters". Also featured in the Starter Kit is a set of six collectable character cards with information about the original Monster Zappers team, a door hanger telling monsters to Keep Out!, a miniature collectable flashlight featuring Zander, the MONSTER ZAPPERS Team Leader, and an application for the child to join the Monster Zappers club. All this is packed into a sturdy carrying case suitable for travel.
Among the MONSTER ZAPPERS cast of monsters and Zapster characters are THUNDER, a monster who creates massive storms through his eyes and SUN-MASTER, a Zapster who creates warmth through his stomach; DRULLER, the monster of drool and MEDI, the Zapster of healing; SLUDGE, the monster of odor and SLUDGY-UDGY, the Zapster whose powers eliminate all bad smells; STATIC, a monster who wreaks havoc with electromagnetic forces and FUZZ-BALL, a Zapster with the power of being irresistible to anybody; and DEHYDRO, the monster of fluid, and PLINKY, the Zapster of water whose special collar and funnel head allow him to stay under water for hours on end.
MONSTER ZAPPERS was created by kids-based entertainment and manufacturing executive, Jonathan F. Glick. The president of Glick Entertainment, David Kingsdale, will oversee the retail and consumer marketing of the MONSTER ZAPPERS brand, joined by Lynn Casey, the company's Senior Vice President of Marketing and Robert Nathan, Executive Vice President. MONSTER ZAPPERS follows on the heels of Jonathan Glick's toy market success with "Regener8rs" as well as licensed toys and accessories from Marvel, Fox, Jurassic Park, The Grinch and Josie & The Pussycats.
