Angry Birds is a worldwide phenomenon and by the end of the year the game will be downloaded 1 billion times on all the platforms on which it is available. At the moment, the game has recorded 700 million downloads and 300 million minutes are lost in it every day. Of course, the popularity of Angry Birds led the Rovio company to produce toys, clothes, accessories, etc., and up to now over 25 million plus Angry Birds toys they was sold in the whole world, but I think that the biggest sales were recorded in China.
They may be familiar, but the stats around Angry Birds remain startling, starting with the franchise's 700m downloads across all platforms – a figure likely to top 1bn sometime in 2012. More than 1m people have reviewed the Android version of Angry Birds on Google's Android Market , and Rovio has sold 25m plush toys so far. On the back of that, there are now more than 20,000 licensed Angry Birds products on sale, from board games and books through to t-shirts, shoes and sweets. A theme park is on the way in Finland, while Angry Birds shops will soon launch in China.
We add to the figures so far 20.000 licenses for Angry Birds themed products and on this blog we have published several articles about interesting accessories for iDevices. I noticed that all kinds of thematic toys and accessories of this popular game have started to appear in stores in Romania, and if you are interested, I think that in almost every mall in Bucharest you can find at least one store that has Angry Birds products for sale. What's next? opening Angry Birds Land in an amusement park in Finland.
