Hey it’s Friday, and usually Fridays are when people send out the “more fun” press releases. Like the one we just got from Commonwealth Toys about the preorder launch of Angry Birds plush toys at Shopangrybirds.com and Toywiz.com.
The release said that industrious fans of the world’s #1 selling mobile game might also be able to buy the stuffed birds in limited quantities at Suncoast and FYE retailers in “just a few days,” whatever that means.
Almost forgot the most important part! The email included the first photos of the Angry Birds pig characters. Behold the pigs, available in early 2011, below.
Want more bird action? Check out Gregory Cortez’s animated tribute to the game.
