Nickelodeon's classic Rugrats and Hey Arnold! are returning as New Full Episodes (NFTs), bringing with them the wonderful fun period of the '90s and reawakening the inner children of a whole generation. With this in mind, Paramount Global and RECUR, a cutting-edge gateway platform for Web3 experiences, have collaborated to bring the concept to reality.
The first shipment of 10,000 Nickelodeon NFT packets, priced at $50 apiece, marks the beginning of the two companies' long-term cooperation. There will be one 1/1 PFP NFT of one of the 12 most popular Hey Arnold! or Rugrats characters or situations in each pack. Tommy, Chuckie, Angelica, Phil and Lil, and Susie are six of the fun characters from the initial Rugrats series. Arnold, Helga, Gerald, Harold, and Rhonda will join NFT regulars like you in the future Hey Arnold! packs. Dropping these classic episodes will bring back fond memories of Nick's cartoons for millions of fans all across the world. In addition, holders of classic Nickelodeon PFPs will have access to brand-new experiences because of the tokens' compatibility with a wide variety of Metaverse platforms.
The finest parts of my childhood, like hanging out with friends after school and watching Nickelodeon cartoons on the sofa, came flooding back as I worked on this thrilling, throwback Nickelodeon experience. RECUR CEO Zach Bruch, who spoke at the first NFT launch, said that the Nick Web3 experience will take fans back to those wonderful and sentimental times.
Doug Rosen, Senior Vice President, Games and Emerging Media, Paramount Global, echoed Bruch's sentiments, saying, we are pleased to present an updated version of fan favorites and provide for Nick fans around the world to own and enjoy 1/1 artifacts from their cherished childhood experiences. Nick fans who have followed these shows for years will be excited to learn about the new ways they can interact with their favorite characters thanks to our partnership with RECUR.
Even though the whitelist sale is scheduled for July 18, you can still get in on the Nickelodeon NFT drop right now.
