Minnesota Museum Sells Dinosaur Hoodies Seen on Stranger Things

The Science Museum of Minnesota is hoping that something “strange” will bring them some change.

As fans of the hit Netflix series Stranger Things anxiously await the July 4 release of season three, the Science Museum of Minnesota is launching a new collection of dinosaur-inspired apparel to coincide with the return of the mega-popular show

After the Science Museum’s “Thunder Lizard” hoodie appeared in an episode of the show back in 2017, fans immediately flooded the museum’s twitter account with requests to bring the sweatshirt back.

The Science Museum happily obliged, and the original purple 1980’s Brontosaurus hoodie was successfully relaunched last year, selling 18, 000 units worldwide in the first two days alone.

Further capitalizing on the nostalgia, the new collection of hoodies and T-shirts are designed with a vintage look. They feature two new dinosaurs, the Tyrannosaurus Rex (“Tyrant Lizard King”) and Triceratops (“Three Horned Face”). Stranger Things fans can also purchase the original Thunder Lizard hoodie.

The museum isn’t riding the Stranger Things wave alone. Brands such as Nike and H&M  and Baskin Robbins have also launched collaborations with the hit show.
