In the 1990's and early 2000's social media wasn't much, so if you wanted a product to reach its intended audience, it took a little more doing than it does now. One approach was to have a massive convention and only invite advertisers or established people to it.

Since 1984, the franchise has expanded to five movies, two cartoons, and a handful of video games.
