NEW YORK COMIC CON!!!!!!!!

THE EMOTES DANCE THEIR WAY TO SUCCESS
AT NEW YORK COMIC CON 2009!

With a huge crowd gathered, three of your Emotes friends, Amore, Bubba and Jumpi hopped on to the stage and found their groove. Led by a professional dancer and actor, (none other than CHAD LINDSEY, the recent NY Subway hero!) the Emotes started the show with an awesome dance number. They jumped and jived, and made the crowd excited for more.

Following this rockin’ performance, Emotes author Matt Casper joined them. As a long line of kids waited patiently for their turn in the spotlight, Matt asked questions about emotions to each Emotes fan. Then, Bubba gave away awesome Emotes prizes. The crowd all did a “happy dance” together and showed off their very best “feeling faces” such as angry, sad, scared and glad.

As the grand finale, a dance contest was held, and the top five movers and shakers were given Emotes books and plushes. The stage was filled with excited dancers and the moves were totally awesome. Keep your eyes peeled to youtube to see video footage of this premiere performance!

Meanwhile, the Emotes booth was booming with excitement all weekend long. The very first batch of Emotes Comics called “How Do You Feel Inside?” : Emotes Comics Volume 1 sold out all of the copies! But don’t worry, we are rushing to make some more!

Also, the Emotes toys were hopping out of the booth and into the super cool Emotes bags of our excited fans. In fact, Amore, the latest Emote character to be introduced, sold out all of her plush toys and key chains! Her friends Bubba and Drain sold out of their plush toys as well!

It was hard for some kids to handle the feeling of sadness when they couldn’t take their favorite Emote home. We understand. Disappointment is a hard feeling to feel. But, guess what? New feelings and new Emotes are just around the corner!

Thanks to everyone who came by and hung out with us. It was so fun to meet tons of new friends. Keep checking out www.emotes.com and send us your fan photos and letters. We always love to hear from you.

Remember, it’s an exciting world…feel all your feelings and don’t forget to dance!
