THE COOL BLUE
He’s Cooler than the Other Side of Your Pillow

Also known as “Mr. Suave”, Blue has a James Dean personality that the ladies love. He is known to be the relaxed and easy going M&M’S character. Cool and talented, Blue enjoys playing his Saxophone during his leisure time.  You can expect a chillaxing day when hanging out with Blue. His ideas of fun are road-tripping and chilling on the hood of his car while listening to Herbie Hancock.


THE CHARMING YELLOW
He Gives the Warmest Hugs

Also known as “Mr. Nice Guy”, Yellow is the optimist of the gang. He’s known to be the clingy best friend of Red and he follows Red around.

Although naive at times, Yellow never fails to keep his smile and fun personality in any type of situation.

If you’re having a bad day, Yellow is the M&M’S to call. He’ll surely turn your frown upside down. He’ll make silly faces, tell funny stories, and do crazy stunts just to see you smile. He’ll do anything to cheer you up! Expect to feel positivity and laughter when Yellow is around.

THE SEXY GREEN

Also known as “The Diva”, Green always gets her way with anything by using her beauty and charm. She’s known to be the go-getter of the gang.

Sexy and self-confident, Green knows what she wants and she’s not afraid to do whatever it takes to get it.

You will enjoy a treat-your-self day with Green. She will take you out shopping, get your hair done and your nails painted too! Expect a total make-over when hanging out with Green because she believes that an M&M’S has to look good to feel good.

THE IRRESISTABLE ORANGE
He’s Worried

Also known as “Mr. Paranoid”, Orange is quite the worrisome ones. He’s always looking out to avoid anyone who tries to eat him.

Despite his paranoia, Orange carefully analyse situations before he jumps into doing something crazy with his friends.

Hang out indoors with Orange during a rainy day! You can enjoy playing board games, a competitive game of chest or even dominos but expect to take several hours to finish one game because he’ll second guess his every move, every time.
