Hatfield, PA – March, 2015 – K'NEX, the only US construction toy company focused on
Building Worlds Kids Love®, is seeking 20 enthusiastic blaster fans to join its K-FORCE
Squad! The members of the squad will be the first to get their hands on the new K-
FORCE Build and Blast(TM) line; the only line of blasters that you build then blast!
The K-FORCE Build and Blast line invites kids ages 8+ to construct customized blasters,
big or small, single or multi-shot, with endless possibilities — the only limit is your imagination! The introductory line includes 8
different kinds of blasters,
buildable targets, and foam dart packs.
The nationwide search runs through March 22, 2015 and challenges blaster fans ages
13+ to submit a video, up to 60 seconds in length, explaining why they deserve to be
chosen as a member of the K-FORCE Squad. The first 1,000 video entries received will
be reviewed by a panel of K’NEX judges, and 20 K-FORCE Squad members will be
chosen from among those entries.
Upon confirmation of eligibility, the 20 K-FORCE Squad members will each receive
exclusive access to the K-FORCE Build and Blast product line before it hits store
shelves, and a chance to become the Grand Prize winner. All the Squad members have
to do is build one or more K-FORCE blasters using the K-FORCE products they receive
(and any other genuine K’NEX parts they may already have at home), and then create a
short video that shows the Squad member using the blaster(s) he or she created to
execute his or her best “trick shot”.
