Grown Up Play-Doh from Hasbro

BY Todd Coopee     November 18, 2020 Filed to: Pop Culture Nod of the Week

Hasbro’s newest line of Play-Doh is marketed exclusively to kidults.

Play-Doh for Adults is a six-pack of 4-oz cans of the classic modeling compound, each a different colour and aroma designed to “evoke everyday things that bring adults joy.” Part of the fun are the tongue-in-cheek names name assigned to each scent.

Mom Jeans  smells like clean denim, Overpriced Latte smells like coffee, Grill King gives the aroma of grilled meat, Dad Sneakers have that new-rubber smell, Spa Day is floral, and Lord of the Lawn is like fresh-cut grass. Despite the newfangled names and fragrances, the set retains all the squishy playability of the original.

Play-Doh for adults is set to ship in December from Amazon and Walmart. The set of six is priced at $11.99 USD.

Company: Hasbro | Available: December 2020 | Price: $11.99 USD
