Description:
The McFunzee's are cartoon like characters designed to promote character development and help children do the right thing. Currently we have a working relationship with Chinese Manufacturers. The product consists of 4 plush talking toys along with a CD book which has animation, character voice, and narration. A commercial is in the process of being made which will help sell the product. There are currently 4 characters. They promote reading and learning the abc's, eating right and exercise, environmental cleanliness, and inspiration.
The main character which promotes reading has been introduced to local pre-schools with much success. Currently, there is not a group of characters such as these on the market. Our main goal is to make sure we can distribute to retailers on a large scale. We can start small and work up to larger retailers if neccessary. We've had many online retailers wanting to represent our products along with a TV sales company.
