SpongeBob Merchandise – Greetings from Bikini Bottom
Underwater cities show up in plenty of shows – but only one has the pineapple. Since 1999, SpongeBob SquarePants has lived at the bottom of the Pacific, frying Krabby Patties at the Krusty Krab and driving his neighbor Squidward Tentacles up the wall. He was created by marine biologist and animator Stephen Hillenburg, who turned his expertise about the ocean into one of the most successful animated series in television history. The humor works on two levels: kids love the slapstick, adults the absurdity – and in the end both are quoting the same scenes. At Elbenwald you'll find officially licensed SpongeBob merchandise in every flavor, from cuddly to wearable. Everyone here is ready, after all – always.
What makes SpongeBob stand out?
Its lead character's unshakeable optimism – and an ensemble where every side character has cult status. Patrick Star elevates cluelessness to an art form, pet snail Gary comments on events with a single "meow," Mr. Krabs hears money growing, and Plankton has spent decades gloriously failing at world domination, wife-computer included. On top of that comes a quotability that's second to none: entire meme generations feed on stills from the show, and it's produced its own set of classics that fans repeat endlessly. For the merchandise, that means motifs that get recognized instantly and almost always trigger a grin – in the kid's room just as much as the open-plan office.
