Slammer Whammers - Product

Product

The standard Slammer Whammers product was a blister pack containing 24 milkcaps and 2 slammers. Imperial Toy Corp. released various sets of milkcaps under the Slammer Whammers name, for example Biker Bugs, Wise Guys, Skull Squad and Wild Things.

There were 288 slammer whammers to collect. This 288 set comprised 12 individual sets of 24 caps to collect. There were also sets of 24 caps that were not part of the 288 big set. (for example Dino Dudes, Ink Drops, Pure Poison, Cyberdudes, Mini Monsters and Splatter Bugs.)

In 2006, Funrise Toy Corporation relaunched their brand of pogs, so Imperial Toy Corp. decided to revive "Slammer Whammers". The motive behind this move was if pogs become popular again like in 1994, Imperial Toy Corp. would be ready with their product in the marketplace.

Famous quotes containing the word product:

    Culture is a sham if it is only a sort of Gothic front put on an iron building—like Tower Bridge—or a classical front put on a steel frame—like the Daily Telegraph building in Fleet Street. Culture, if it is to be a real thing and a holy thing, must be the product of what we actually do for a living—not something added, like sugar on a pill.
    Eric Gill (1882–1940)

    The end product of child raising is not only the child but the parents, who get to go through each stage of human development from the other side, and get to relive the experiences that shaped them, and get to rethink everything their parents taught them. The get, in effect, to reraise themselves and become their own person.
    Frank Pittman (20th century)

    The product of the artist has become less important than the fact of the artist. We wish to absorb this person. We wish to devour someone who has experienced the tragic. In our society this person is much more important than anything he might create.
    David Mamet (b. 1947)
