Neopets, the original virtual pet site that galvanized a generation of online gamers, is celebrating 25 years of epic fandom at this year’s San Diego Comic-Con! Following two fan-fuelled years at the iconic convention, the brand will be back with even more merchandise and activations to connect with passionate event-goers.
Neopets will be setting up shop from Wednesday, July 24th to Sunday, July 28th at booth #3839 where fans can meet The Neopets Team (TNT) and access exclusive PhatMojo plush, Neohoods with exclusive codes, Con bag, contests, rare photo opportunities, new plot sneak peeks, and MORE! The brand’s appearance at SDCC will bring color to Neopets’ 25th Anniversary celebrations, and round-off an exciting year of new updates, which kicked off with a leadership change this time last year.
“We can’t wait to celebrate with our dedicated players and fans,” said Dominic Law, CEO, Neopets. “We are so indebted to our wonderful community who have supported Neopets through the years and to showcase all our latest projects, we’ve taken out our biggest booth to date!”
Full Booth #3839 Activities Include:
- EXCLUSIVE Phat Mojo SDCC plush: Collect the limited edition Aisha and Shoyru plushes from Phat Mojo, along with an exclusive in-game code! This very limited run of 500 Aisha plush can only be found at the Neopets booth, while the 500 Shoyru plush can be found at the UCC Distributing booth. Purchases at either of these booths will give you access to exclusive codes, which will NEVER be available again – a true SDCC exclusive!
