Hasbro,sex during storm video famous owners of Nerf and Death Row Records have introduced a new mascot to market their popular foam dart-maker.
Made up of many, many Nerf darts and rocking an orange basketball jersey with matching orange shoes, Murph (who uses they/them pronouns), will be the toy brand's first-ever mascot. The marketing campaign titled 'Unleash the play in you' will have Murph appearing in everything from ads, stores, and across Nerf’s social media channels — so you can't avoid Murph even if you really wanted to.
According to AdWeek, the faceless anthropomorphic character is described as “a playful spirit and gifted athlete.” In a press release from Adam Kleinman, global VP of Nerf’s parent company Hasbro, he said that Murph "represents this ageless, unbridled fun that lives in all of us and creates a physical embodiment of that feeling you get when you play with Nerf."
