- press release -

Cartoon Network’s hottest new hero, Generator   Rex takes kids on a fun journey of discovery at the Nido Fortified Science Discovery Center at SM Mall of Asia! From March 13 to June 30, coinciding with the April International Math, Science and Technology Month, kids can enjoy fun, Generator-Rex themed learning activities and interactive displays.

Kids are also invited to channel Rex’s extraordinary abilities and participate in the Rex Run, for a chance to win an awesome Cartoon Network prize pack. To join, kids must follow the clues around the Center and complete the Rex Run activity sheet. Six of Rex’s Gear Ups from the animated television series, such as The Rex Ride, Punk Busters and the Boogie Pack, will be secretly placed in relevant displays within the Center, encouraging participants to use their skills to explore to the extreme.

The Rex Run partnership between Cartoon Network and the Nido Fortified Science Discovery Center is the first of its kind in the Philippines, and is designed to further highlight the fun that science and technology can bring to kids’ lives.

“We’re always looking for partnerships that are a great brand fit and give us an opportunity to bring the

Cartoon Network experience to our viewers and fans,” said Lucien Harrington, Vice-President, Branding & Communications, Turner Broadcasting System Asia Pacific, Inc. “This opportunity is particularly exciting as it delivers on our promise to animate kids’ lives in one of the most stimulating children’s environments in the Philippines. It’s a perfect fit for Cartoon Network and Rex!”

Generator Rex is an incredible story of good versus evil, reconciling teenage instincts with hero ambition and all set against a futuristic backdrop that is sure to appeal to tech-savvy kids today. While Rex’s adrenaline-fueled adventures steal the scenes, the series is ultimately science-focused, set in the aftermath of a global accident, where microscopic machines known as nanites have infested every living thing.

Scientific research, technology and Rex’s incredible powers continually combine to save the world from the mutant monsters that threaten its existence.

The series, which launched in January in the Philippines, is already proving to be a hit with Pinoy kids as the number one show among kids’ channels in its time band: all-new episodes airing every Sunday at 9:00am*.

Raymund Z. Maclang, Assistant Vice President for Operations - Family Entertainment Center Inc. added, “We’re very excited to have Cartoon Network’s Rex from Generator Rex here in the Center, as he will surely bring another fun and different experience to kids as they learn about science in a fun and engaging manner.”
