Gru's loyal yellow, gibberish-speaking Minions love causing mischief and mayhem almost as much as they love bananas. They are easily distracted and can be unpredictable, curious and subversively sweet. They are extremely competitive with each other. This can lead to sudden slap fights, but if someone from the outside tries to harm them or Gru's family, they become fiercely protective. Now, someone or something has been making them vanish...
By searching for the Minions across the NBCUniversal family of websites—beginning today and lasting until June 30—fans may win any number of despicable prizes. Every day, a new missing Minion will be revealed at www.missingminions.com, along with the NBCUniversal partner website where he may be found. Audiences are asked to visit the specific partner site and search for the missing Minion. To rescue him and enter the drawing for the grand prize, all they must do is click!
For each Minion found, registered users will receive an entry into a grand-prize sweepstakes for a trip for four to Universal Orlando Resort. Daily instant-win prizes of Fandango Movie Cash—good for tickets to see Despicable Me 2 in theaters—are also available for lucky fans with keen eyes.
More than 21 NBCUniversal sites are participating in the three-week promotion. Visit www.missingminions.com to find out more and start the search for a missing Minion today.
