Spider-Man, SpongeBob finally join forces

Spider-Man and SpongeBob SquarePants have joined the stable of kids' products from Overbreak LLC, Sun Valley, Calif., just in time for the back-to-school rush. The Rainbow Art Spider-Man Digi-Draw ($19.99) allows youngsters to trace anything on anything--uh-oh. The new Spider-Man design appears on the red and blue plastic case that looks just like a laptop computer.

Digi-Draw contains over 175 traceable Spider-Man images, four Spider-Man backgrounds, one Spider-Man animation kit, and six Spider-Man colored pencils as well as a pencil sharpener, two Magic Hold magnets, and a pair of Spider-Man Web Writers. The bonus Web Writers come in exclusive Spider-Man 3-D string ink colors. (Did we repeat "Spider-Man" enough times?)

Spider-Man (again?!) also joins SpongeBob as featured figures on Overbreak's original HoverDisc ($10), which has sold over 4,000,000 units, with no letup in sight. The HoverDisc inflates to more than three feet in diameter and flies like nothing else out there, allowing kids to create freestyle tricks and acrobatic stunts. It even can be filled with helium.

Joining the HoverDisc in the skyway is the recently released HoverCopter ($19.95), a wireless radio-controlled flying saucer. Its innovative propeller design allows the Hover to do just that. Kids will make up tricks, race, and see just how high the 'Copter will go. Moreover, it's rechargeable and glows in the dark.

Overbreak products can be found wherever popular games are sold.
