We mentioned the licensing show in a previous post. This is where people with great shows (like Wow! Wow! Wubbzy!) meet with different toy-making companies and different people who sell toys. This is a big deal in the industry (and for you) because it's at the Licensing show that we get an idea of what kind of "toy future" there is for a character like Wubbzy.
It also means that we make all kinds of little promotional things like info packs, postcards, and flip books. Pictured above is the flip book that we had made for June's Licensing Show. Believe it or not, while they aren't made as official toys, a lot of people get this stuff at shows and then sell it on websites like E-Bay. You'll find the flip books, and also some of Scholastic's offerings there. So do a little search-a-roo on E-bay and you, too, might be able to get a flip book! Just keep a wary eye out. If you haven't seen it on this blog, it isn't official merchandise. A lot of people steal artwork from this blog and other sources and make their own t-shirts and other merchandise. While you can certainly buy it, it isn't official.
