BMI Merchandise – New Product Launch

Always Trend-Forward! BMI Merchandise (Bonita Marie Intl.) Launches Robust Range of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Merchandise, In Advance of the TMNT Theatrical Blockbuster

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are headed to the big screen this summer, courtesy of mega-producer Michael Bay (of Transformers movies fame) – and BMI Merchandise is right in sync with a complete range of Turtles products, ideal for redemption and merchandiser games.

BMI’s Turtles items are priced right, in-stock and selected to hit key prize values, ranging from 200-1000 points. Items are great for merchandisers and cranes, along with the redemption counter. With Turtles merchandise presently hard to find, BMI’s range represents an opportunity for locations to trump retail as the go-to source for this resurgent mega-brand.

“Turtles were all the buzz following Toy Fair last week, with the new Paramount summer blockbuster eagerly anticipated,” said Dave Schwartz, BMI Merchandise’s V.P., Sales/Mktg. “BMI’s passion is major player-demand brands that drive arcade revenue, and we feel Turtles merchandise is ideal for multi-tainment venues seeking to enhance their location’s popularity with players,” he concluded.

For a look at BMI’s complete product line, please visit www.bmimerchandise.com. To view pricing, register on-site or call/e-mail [email protected], (800) 272-6375
