#Giveaway: Topps' Iconic Bazooka Joe Gets New Look

Over 100,000 votes were cast and now Bazooka Joe, the well-known face of Bazooka Bubble Gum, has a brand new look!  Bazooka Candy Brands, a division of Topps, tapped four top artists to help develop more than 100 potential new looks for Bazooka Joe and for 16 weeks fans were invited to be part of the excitement by voting for their favorites at BazookaJoe.com.  Voting closed on May 31^st and today, the winning Bazooka Joe, designed by illustrator Victor Intrasombat of Clockwork Animation, was revealed at BazookaJoe.com and in a broadcast spot, featuring him in a stylish, modern version of his well-known ensemble of jeans, t-shirt, and baseball cap. Now that Joe has a new look, he, along with his pal Mort will be spotlighted in comics, games and activities in Bazooka Bubble Gum packs starting later this year.

To assist with Bazooka Joe’s refresh, Bazooka Candy Brands and their agency, Flint & Steel, worked with a diverse group of impressive illustrators. In addition to Victor Instrasombat of Clockwork Animation, who created the winning illustration, other artists that contributed potential new looks include Benjamin Balistreri (How to Train Your Dragon), Robert Lilly (Nickelodeon Animation Studios), and Ben Reynolds (mobile games for Ghostbusters and Monster Pet Shop).  Each of the participating artists were selected for their talent and their Bazooka Joe fandom.

Asked for comment, Bazooka Joe bubbled with excitement, “Thanks to all of the fans who helped me talk Topps into finding me a new getup.  New hairstyle, new clothes – I’m ready to take on the world!”

To celebrate the new look of Bazooka Joe, The Topps Company will also issue a special edition digital trading card that showcases the updated spokes-character.  The digital trading card will be available in the Topps® BUNT® 2015 app beginning today.  The Topps® BUNT® 2015 app is available on the App Store and Google Play Store.

Valentine's Day Gift Guide - Bazooka Juicy Drop Gummies

 

The fan favorite Juicy Drop brand has just expanded to include Juicy Drop Gummies, a confectionery innovation that lets fans control their flavor experience.  The product combines delicious sour-sanded gummies with the signature Juicy Drop sour gel pen. Using a special “drop zone” on the gummy, consumers combine the two for an amazing taste experience.      

The new Juicy Drop Gummies will challenge taste buds with an exciting line-up of deliciously sour flavors including Knock-Out Punch, Blue Rebel, Apple Attack and Watermelon Blast.

 My Thoughts

Juicy Drops are a fun treat that kids will love to receive this Valentine's Day. They come in four sour flavors including Knock-Out Punch, Blue Rebel, Apple Attack and Watermelon Blast. Each one will have you twisting your face in delight. The package comes with a juicy drop pen that is loaded with extra sour gel. The gummies have a cavity that you can fill up with as little or as much gel as you like. The result is a combination of sweet and sour that kids of all ages will enjoy.

From three to thirteen, all my children loved the Juicy Drop Gummies. Our one quibble is that there aren't as many gummies in the package as we would've liked, and you wind up with a lot of left over gel. Of course, my children found a way to utilize the excess. Overall, we really enjoyed them and will definitely be looking for them in stores.

If you'd like to learn more about Juicy Drop Gummies and the full line of Bazooka Candy, be sure to visit their Candymania website. They have tons of ways to make your Valentine's Day sweet.
