Alright, it’s time to ask some hard questions. “Will retail actually buy these products?” First, don’t get me wrong. I absolutely love that Pudgy managed to secure a collaboration with Bearbrick, especially given how well it fits their IP. However, part of me thinks the primary audience might be holders, degens, and collectors in the web3 space, rather than mainstream retail. Consider Pudgy’s impressive distribution model over the past few years: - Over 1 billion Giphy views - 1 million+ followers across social media - The largest holder database in NFTs But how do these numbers translate into revenue for the business and IP? Overall, I'm really bullish on this collaboration. Just curious about retail’s reaction.

nothing will beat nft marketing back in 2022. there was no better time than dope trailers and art teasers making the tl go absolutely ballistic. good times man, good times.

Name a more active founder than @Cabanimation. If you've missed the updates, here's what he's accomplished in the past few weeks. He has not only traveled from conferences like Italy View to the World Animation Summit, sharing the vision of @Claynosaurz, but he's also been connecting with major industry leaders in entertainment: > Spent the entire week in Los Angeles for the World Animation Summit as the official representative for Claynos and @HeebooOfficial. > Delivered the opening keynote and participated in multiple panels with executives from Netflix, Disney, DreamWorks, Sony, Nickelodeon, Warner Bros., and more. > Opened the keynote by asking, "Who in this room still works at a traditional studio?" → dead silence, followed by the thesis: creator-owned web3 IP is the future lifeline for the animation industry. > The community and holders were thrilled; Cab got visibly emotional on stage. Multiple clips show him choking up, reflecting on the 3-year journey finally paying off. > Engaged in non-stop meetings with studios, creators, and executives throughout the summit. > Spent significant 1-on-1 time with animation legend @sherrygunther (ex-Nickelodeon, Poppy Cat, multiple Emmys), describing it as “endgame enlightenment.” > Took photos and hung out with Simu Liu, Alex Woo, Jorge Gutierrez, the Critical Role cast, and many others. > His birthday was on Nov 19 during the summit — barely had time to acknowledge it due to back-to-back meetings, but the Claynosaurz shared a big birthday post, and the community flooded him with love. > Posted multiple "Trojan Horse" memes celebrating how a fully community-backed web3 project infiltrated the heart of Hollywood and took the stage. - - Personally love seeing founders go all out for their IP. It’s not easy traveling 24/7, speaking with industry leaders about your vision and, most importantly, onboarding a fresh amount of retail eyes onto crypto native IPs. Kudos to him and the team for constantly building.
