Cartoon Network and Hasbro Celebrate the Holidays with A-Maze-Ing Toy Giveaway
Starting Today at CartoonNetwork.com/win, Free Online Sweepstakes Prizes Include 1,000 Hasbro Toys & Games!
This holiday season, Hasbro and Cartoon Network have come together to celebrate the season of giving with an A-Maze-Ing Toy Giveaway for Cartoon Network fans. Beginning today, fans between the ages of 6-17 can enter the online sweepstakes at CartoonNetwork.com/win for their chance to be one of 251 winners. The sweepstakes, which is free to enter, will run through December 8 and is open to residents of the 50 United States and D.C. Two hundred and fifty prize packs - each containing a NERF REBELLE HEARTBREAKER BOW, an ANGRY BIRDS GO! PIRATE PIG ATTACK GAME and a KRE-O CITYVILLE SKYSCRAPER MAYHEM set - will be given away to fans, and Cartoon Network will also choose one lucky grand prize winner at random to receive a massive delivery of 250 Hasbro toys and games this holiday season.
Some of the hottest toys of the season are featured in the grand prize including items from Hasbro's ANGRY BIRDS™ GO™! JENGA® gaming line with innovative, face-to-face gaming based on the mobile game. Kids can take on the evil pigs with exciting kart racing action, bird-launching fun, and iconic JENGA block toppling action with games like the ANGRY BIRDS GO! JENGA PIRATE PIG ATTACK™ GAME. For brick fans, the grand prize also includes new building sets from the KRE-O CITYVILLE INVASION line from Hasbro which changes the face of brick-based play with the introduction of innovative SONIC MOTION TECHNOLOGY. In each KRE-O building set equipped with SONIC MOTION TECHNOLOGY, sound waves trigger specific movements in special KRE-O bricks creating a live action scene like in the KRE-O CITYVILLE SKYSCRAPER MAYHEM set. But something is rotten in the KRE-O CITYVILLE metropolis - the evil DR. MAYHEM has created a supernatural squad to aid him in world domination. Also featured in the grand prize are new bow and crossbow blasters from the popular NERF REBELLE brand designed to empower players with confidence, high performance action, and a stylish edge including the NERF REBELLE HEARTBREAKER BOW.
To promote the A-Maze-Ing Toy Giveaway sweepstakes, Cartoon Network enlisted the help of members of its sketch comedy show Incredible Crew to create a series of custom spots that will air on Cartoon Network and invite fans to enter online for their chance to win online. Complete sweepstakes details, including official rules, are available at www.cartoonnetwork.com/win.
This year's A-Maze-Ing Toy Giveaway marks the 17th consecutive year Cartoon Network and Hasbro have worked together to provide Cartoon Network's fans with a unique holiday promotion.
