Hippos make great trade characters!
Oxy, a maker of household products in Korea, has a
"Hippo" line of products to help you manage funky smells, humidity, and even moths in your household.
What a perfect decision to use happy hippos for this brand of products! The image of hippos as fat aquatic animals with endless appetites carries over well to this line of products. The above hippo image is used on the odor eating products. But, do you think this hippo seems to be sucking up odors or has ice breath?
The above product's name means "Odor Eating Hippo". The squishy
bubbly beads of this product pair up naturally with the hippo. Don't you find this product quite appealing?
The hippos can be easily changed to match the "flavor" of the odor eaters.
In this
Hamaroid product, the hippo is dressed as a scientific academic. Who better to guard your precious clothes from moths than a hippo who has done its research!
Here the hippo has put all pretense behind and is downright ready to fight off those pesky moths!
This is
The Thirsty Hippo product. It sucks water right out of your room! Look closely at how it sucks the water right into its own legs.
Cuteness also makes hippos great trade characters for products. These air fresheners use the hippo characters to brand themselves. Oxy's hippos really stand out and are a lot of fun.
Here's a comparison. These Air Wick products use a woman's face rather than cartoon hippos. Don't you think this brings a whole different meaning to the product?
