BURGER KING® Spider-Man 2 toys start Ebay bidding wars

Friday, July 30, 2004

BURGER KING®’s promotion of Spider-Man 2 has proved to be one of its most successful UK movie ties ever. Kids Meals featuring toys from the movie have been flying from restaurants across the UK and have even become collectables, with a complete set of six toys already selling for £10 on Ebay!

Spidey fanatics can still get their hands on one of six interactive premiums, exclusive to BURGER KING®, with the purchase of every Spider-Man 2 Kids Meal, available from £2.79. Not a bad investment considering that a complete set of the toys are already worth more than three times that on Ebay!

The collectable toys are:
Spidey Swings into Action
Tentacle Trap Doc Ock
Web Rescue
Scale Down Spidey
Disc Attack Doc Ock
Wrist Web Flinger

Alex Cacouris, BURGER KING® Kids Marketing Manager UK and Eire, said “The promotion has totally exceeded our expectations! It’s great that BK can lend it’s support to a promotion that appeals to Spidey fans of all ages and that our toys have become genuine Spider-Man 2 collectables. I’m tempted to log on to Ebay and and snap up a set myself ­ as there are no longer any left around the office!”
