This is a very special release for Youtooz. Working with a mainstream digital brand like Hot Ones, that was originally built off YouTube really emcompases [sic] everything we love about the internet. It was inspiring to watch this series take off and become the brand it is today, and we're incredibly proud to announce this collaboration.

NBCUniversal has a great roster of IPs across everything like classics from the 80s to highly popular animated properties, and it was fun to be able to infuse our Youtooz style into these popular characters. Our community loves memorable, iconic moments and what makes Youtooz special is that we capture these moments and turn them into figures -- like the first time Doc and Marty time travel.

We always listen to our community and build our brand based on what we hear from them, and early on there was a running joke about how our figures looked so good, our community wanted to eat them. It was only natural to extend our business into the food and beverage category, and we wanted our first product to really bring forward the feeling of joy and happiness that Youtooz is all about.
