Lynx have collaborated with Marvel Comics to offer customers an awesome promotional figurine gift. We spotted this in a Zhuhai store and think this is a really good marketing method to boost sales. A gift with purchase is a great strategy; however, the success of this is based on the suitability of the gift for the intended audience.

The Avengers, is a 2012 American superhero film based on the Marvel Comics superhero team, produced by Marvel Studios and distributed by Walt Disney. Each of these figurines is one of the different superheros from the movie. The figure has a strong collectibility factor as they are limited edition artisan items that fans hold in high value. Limited Edition Collectibles, especially in the form of promotional figurines that are timeless, are therefore a great marketing strategy.

 

Each box has a different figurine – if someone is a collector they would multi-buy your product.

The Stages of Figurine Manufacturing in China:

Sampling and Moulding – The first sample has to be perfect before a factory will go ahead and make a mould for mass production. Worthy to note is the fact that  different parts of a figurine may  require separate moulds.

Plastic Injection Process – PVC material is injected at a high temperature into the mould. The mould then cools down and the basic figurine is ready. After polishing and assembly comes the painting

Painting Process – Figurines are hand painted using airbrushes and other intricate tools.

Stamping Process – Stamping machines are used to create the realistic aspects of the figurine such as eyes and lips.

Assembling Process – The most labour intensive aspect which includes hand gluing the parts to assemble the final figure.

 

We asked one of our clients to give us their impressions during a China factory visit during a buying mission recently.
