Bring the Excitement of the New Star Wars Movie to Brushing Time With More Characters Kids Will Love and Enter the Sweepstakes for a Chance to Win Fun Prizes for the Family


BUENA PARK, CA--(Marketwired - Dec 1, 2015) - The new Star Wars movie will soon hit the big screen and just in time, Firefly® is introducing new Star Wars™ Lightsaber toothbrushes that will be a perfect stocking stuffer for longtime and new fans. Firefly, the leader in children's oral care solutions, expanded its popular line of Star Wars Lightsaber toothbrushes to include two new characters: Yoda, and the movie's new character Kylo Ren. Character voices, memorable movie quotes, flashing lights and lightsaber sound effects will appeal to kids and encourage them to conquer the battle against the dark side of cavities each morning and night.

Comprised of Obi-Wan Kenobi, Darth Vader, Yoda and Kylo Ren, the complete line of Firefly Star Wars Lightsaber toothbrushes gives parents, kids and all fans the opportunity to choose what side of The Force they support -- Light Side or Dark Side. Each toothbrush is equipped with a plastic protective cap, which helps keep the brush head clean and away from any bathroom germs. The protective cap is also the finishing touch on the toothbrush that gives it a true lightsaber look. In addition to these products, the Firefly Ready Go Toothbrush, the number one selling children's manual toothbrush line, is also available in a range of Star Wars characters, including Darth Vader and Yoda.

"With excitement for the new film growing, Firefly Star Wars Lightsaber Toothbrushes are the perfect addition to any holiday gift for young Star Wars fans -- and encourages the development of lifelong healthy habits," said Geoff Carroll, Chief Marketing Officer. "Firefly is committed to creating innovative and high quality dental care products at an affordable price point that help parents make the brushing routine fun for kids with less mess, and Star Wars is just one of the many fun lineups of characters we offer that appeal to kids."
