3. How it all started… Skelanimals are adorable little animals who have met an untimely end— mostly due to their own reckless and ill-advised behavior. The 20 characters--ranging from a bat, to a monkey, to a bulldog--are brought to life through funny poems describing their demise, giving the brand its signature, light-hearted feel.

4. Skelanimals hits fever pitch… Quirky, edgy, and fun, Skelanimals have struck a chord with teens and young adults all over the globe, driving triple-digit sales growth year over year. Over 60 new animals are slated to be released over the next few years, many in limited edition runs, fueling a surge in interest from collectors. The loveable Skelanimals and their clever personalities and hilarious back stories resonate with consumers of all stripes, from counterculture aficionados, to skate and surfer kids, fashion-savvy teens, toy collectors, and young people who just find the animals adorable.

20. Brand Positioning Skelanimals are: Light-hearted Lovable Edgy & Hip Irreverent Fashionable Skelanimals are not: Macabre Frightening Morbid Bratty Offensive A key factor in Skelanimals’ success is that many people can embrace it regardless of individual personalities or cultural ties. It taps into the counterculture market, the surf/skate community, and everything in between!

21. Brand Positioning Skelanimals is positioned as a specialty brand which offers hip, innovative, high- quality products with special features that give them a higher perceived value. Glow-in-the-dark accents, embroidery, charms, branded flag tags, hidden messages and special packaging – such as coffin-shaped hangtags and shoe boxes – are just some of the enhancements that set the Skelanimals collection apart from the competition.

46. Skelanimals Animated Shorts Skelanimals animated shorts are featured on our website, YouTube, and other video-sharing sites, with more in the works. Each vignette takes a light-hearted look at one of our dead animal friends...some of whom clearly still haven't learned from their past mishaps. In "Bear Hug," for example, ChungKee races to embrace you and is stopped 'dead' in his tracks by the computer screen...leaving the hapless bear sliding to the floor in a daze, his bones still stuck to the invisible partition. Never fear, he can quickly regain his composure (and his skeleton). Discussions about the development of a Skelanimals animated series are ongoing with major media producers.
