The Misadventures of Match-Up

We took a break from the rigors of bobblehead producing and attended the annual Match-Up outing at Islands of Adventure. Words used to describe the day..."Excellent" (Heidi), "****** fantastic" (Nikole), "Great" (Jaklyn), "Complete and utter terror" (Adam). Check out all the photos on our MySpace page!

And if you don't care for the actual data- remember we have been endorsed by both Senator's McCain and Obama and Beldar (the President of the Planet Melmac- you know, where ALF was from).

Asked if she could think of any movie character that symbolizes the Match-Up culture...she stated "Maverick from Top Gun. Match-Up goes against the status quo regarding most promotional item provider's views of seeing short-term profit as the overriding goal." You betcha Sarah
