Help Build the Power Rangers Mega Mural at Montreal Comiccon for a Good Cause!

The Power Rangers Mega Mural is Coming to Montreal Comiccon!

If you’ve been to a Mega Bloks booth before, you’ve participated in our free building tables and walked away with a ton cool stuff!

This year we had the opportunity to head to SDDC (San Diego Comic-Con 2012). We created the ultimate building experience, transforming our entire booth into a community build wall – a POWER RANGERS MEGA MURAL! We designed our entire booth to house a giant 7′ x 5′ Mega Bloks community build wall that showcased a Red Ranger Super Samurai mask.

This was not any ordinary build -  we invited anyone attending SDCC to drop by our booth and add some blocks to the wall to help us complete it in 4 days – and thousands of fans did!

Last month we brought the Power Rangers Mega Mural to Fan Expo Toronto 2012 – 3 days of mural building by the fans and the mural was donated to the Holland Bloorview Kids Rehabilitation Hospital, a local Toronto charity that provides support to children with disabilities.

Now the mural is coming to Montreal! Come by our booth – 2000 – and take part in helping us build the Power Rangers Mega for a good cause! Once completed, the wall will be donated to Miriam Foundation, a local Montreal charity that provides support to children with autism.

As part of the festivities you could also enter for a chance to win a Mega Bloks Power Rangers Claw Armor Megazord – be the first to own this great build from our Fall 2012 collection!

How to enter – 2 ways to WIN!

  1. Add a block to the MEGA Mural at the Mega Bloks booth (#2000) at Montreal Comiccon 2012 being held at Palais des Congrès (1001 Place Jean-Paul-Riopelle Street, Montreal, Quebec, Canada) and take a picture of the MEGA Mural.
  2. Then, at any time during the Promotion Period, simply tweet this picture along with the hashtag #PowerRangersMegaMural; or

Fan Expo 2012 recap – Proudly Canadian!

This year we had the opportunity to make our first appearance at Fan Expo – and it was AWESOME!

This year marked our debut at Fan Expo Toronto with our own booth – and we could not be happier with the results. As a Canadian company we were super excited to be at Fan Expo to give our Canadian fans a chance to immerse themselves in some of our most popular brands and offer them exclusive giveaways and fun contests!

For the fist time in Canada fans were treated to an in depth look at the making of our Mega Bloks World of Warcraft toys, a sneak peak at our first Halo Signature series build – the Forward Unto Dawn, and a VIP screening of the Mega Bloks Halo 4 Toymation!

Building Tables and the #PowerRangersMegaMural

This year we put together a very special booth that was dedicated to the fans and building enthusiasts alike. We invited attendees to “come build with us!” – we had several building tables around the booth filled with blocks where fans let their imaginations run wild and the best part was – whatever they made they got to keep!

With the success of the #PowerRangersMegaMural at San Diego Comic Con we decided to bring the ultimate building experience to Fan Expo. Listed as an official attraction by Fan Expo Canada  we invited fans to come by the booth, add a block or two, and help us build the POWER RANGERS MEGA MURAL.

Not only was this wall a way for fans to engage, meet the Mega Bloks community team, and learn about our toys – it was built with a goal – to help raise awareness for Autism Speaks. This is a cause we have been very dedicated towards for a few years now, in fact this year at the Autism Speaks Walk in Montreal we helped raise $60,000.

After the wall was completed we donated it to the Holland Bloorview Kids Rehabilitation Hospital, a local Toronto charity that provides support to children with disabilities. To celebrate the the occasion we unveiled the mural at the hospital and brought some of the Power Rangers along to visit with the kids.
