The Despicable Me 2 marketing campaign involved a blimp shaped like a Minion that toured the US for 6 months promoting the film. The blimp could be tracked online and fans could post photos. A Minion Rush mobile game was also released and downloaded over 100 million times in the first 3 months. Teaser posters for the film showed the mischievous Minions without revealing the villain, and merchandise included Minion toys, clothes, and accessories targeted towards children.
