Wild Republic, the nature toy brand of K&M International, Inc., launched its complete marketing program backing the launch of its Steve Irwin Wildlife Adventure Series of products. The Irwin line is the first mass market product line from Wild Republic and the marketing program primarily focuses on the interactive Wild Republic Talking Steve Irwin Action Figure.
Wild Republic has planned to offer the products internationally for nearly two years as part of the company's agreement with Australia Zoo. As part of the agreement, royalties received will go directly to endangered species
programs, including Wildlife Warriors, an organization founded by Steve
Irwin.
Kim Hammeren, Director of Marketing, Special Projects for K&M, said,
"Wild Republic is the suitable partner for Australia Zoo and the Steve Irwin
product line. The company is known as the top brand of action-driven,
nature-themed toys designed to educate children about the wonders of the
wild through creative play. Steve was able to bring so much excitement
to wildlife and environmental causes, the new products continue to educate
children with fun interactive play."
The Wild Republic Steve Irwin Wildlife Adventure Series will be supported at retail by point-of-purchase displays.
Pedigree Mobile Hand Cart Display Used By Large Pet Food Retailers
The Pedigree Mobile Hand Cart was created for Masterfoods USA to provide a mobile, highly visible dog food display in various locations among large pet food retailers.
To build brand awareness while providing strong graphic appeal, the
Pedigree Mobile Hand Cart was designed with bright yellow colored
graphics that reinforced the Pedigree brand. The signage was
eye-catching and highly recognizable through the retail environment.
Space was provided on the header for pricing during retail promotions.
To develop the strength and durability needed to accommodate the large
weight and size of dog food packaging, the display was constructed with
steel tubing, heavy gauge wire, sheet meal and heavy-duty casters. It
was designed to assemble quickly and easily.
The Pedigree Mobile Hand Cart display was designed and produced by Multi Dimensional Resources, a turnkey merchandising solutions provider located in Carlstadt, NJ. (Web site) www.mdr-pop.com

'Boutique' Movie Theater With Dining, Reserved Luxury Seating & Digital Screens To Open In Miami's Dolphin Mall
Taubman Centers' Dolphin Mall is partnering with Cobb Theatres to offer Miami- Dade County, Florida's first premium movie theater complete with dining, cocktails, reserved luxury seating and digital projection.
The 20,000-square-foot cinema will be just down the corridor from Cobb's highly successful Dolphin 19 theater complex, marking the Alabama-based theater chain's first foray into the "boutique" theater arena. It will have five digital screens, a restaurant, an outdoor dining patio and a bar located a few steps from Dolphin Mall's main valet parking area by Strike Miami. The new movie house is for guests 21 and older. It is expected to open in spring 2008.
"It's a whole new way to see a movie," said Pete Marrero, Dolphin Mall's general manager. "It combines the comfort of a living room with the cache of a private screening. It is a fantastic addition to our shopping center."
Each spacious theater has 75 to 125 seats rather than the typical 200 to 300 to provide more comfort and ambiance than the traditional theater. The high-end leather seats with handmade wood table armrests, that may be folded up to create a "sofa-like seat, are arranged stadium style, but feature almost six feet between rows rather than the traditional 48 inches for maximum comfort. When purchasing tickets, guests reserve their specific seats. Moviegoers may still get popcorn and soda, but they may also sample from the tapas-style menu highlighting international dishes and enjoy a glass of wine or a cocktail with their movie, all served before the film starts. Guests can choose to have dinner before or after a show at the in-house restaurant or on the 30-seat patio. The decor of the facility will reflect the sophisticated menu. Designed by Miami's Zyscovich, Inc., some of the interior's special touches include stainless steel railings wrapped in leather, a chandelier, fabric-clad walls behind the bar that have classic movie images projected on them and director's chair-like seating in the dining room.

'Club Patron' Provides Unique Mobile Venue To Celebrate Patron Tequila & Scott Sharp

The Club Patron hospitality area is for invited guests at each IndyCar race in the United States this year.
Unlike any other sponsor area at Indy Racing League events, Club Patron is a two-level, fully contained mobile event venue, all of which disassembles into pods and travels inside a specially designed semi trailer.

The world's highest-quality tequila deserves the best, most comfortable venue we could build," says Ed Brown, president and CEO of the Las Vegas-based Patron Spirits Company. "Of course, Club Patron is more than just a relaxing place to enjoy our products. We built this unique venue to help celebrate our sponsorship of Scott Sharp and the Rahal Letterman team, and the excitement of IndyCar racing."

Microsoft Announces Surface
Microsoft Corp. has unveiled Microsoft Surface(TM), the first in a new category of surface computing products that turns an ordinary tabletop into a vibrant, dynamic surface that provides effortless interaction with all forms of digital content through natural gestures, touch and physical objects. Beginning at the end of this year, consumers will be able to interact with Surface in hotels, retail establishments, restaurants and public entertainment venues. The intuitive user interface works without a traditional mouse or keyboard, allowing people to interact with content and information on their own or collaboratively with their friends and families, just like in the real world. Surface is a 30-inch display in a table-like form factor that small groups can use at the same time.
"With Surface, we are creating more intuitive ways for people to interact with technology," said Steve Ballmer, Microsoft CEO. "We see this as a multibillion dollar category, and we envision a time when surface computing technologies will be pervasive, from tabletops and counters to the hallway mirror." Surface also features the ability to recognize physical objects that have identification tags similar to bar codes. This means that when a customer simply sets a wine glass on the surface of a table, a restaurant could provide them with information about the wine they're ordering, pictures of the vineyard it came from and suggested food pairings tailored to that evening's menu. The experience could become completely immersive, letting users access information on the wine-growing region and even look at recommended hotels and plan a trip without leaving the table.
