Shop.angrybirds.com

Shop.angrybirds.com (more commonly known as angrybirds.com/shop and currently angrybirds.com/merch) is a subpage on the Angry Birds website created in late 2010 to sell merchandise of the game's characters and intellectual property.

History
The website was created in late 2010 using the Shopify retail platform. Originally, the website only sold Plush Toys of the main 5 birds, but then later expanded their storefront in 2011 with the expansion of phone cases, lunch boxes, backpacks, footwear and more. In 2012, the website received a redesign for the release of Angry Birds Space and made new merchandise available, such as shirts with Sam Spratt's designs and clothing based on Angry Birds Heikki. In 2013, the website added a new way of redirecting users to their appropriate storefront based on their geolocation. The website also received another redesign with the products ranging from umbrellas to board games. In late 2013-early 2014, the website had another redesign with the logo being changed to a more Toons look and added a new "character lookup" section to the website to search for items of a specific bird or pig. In 2015, the website got redirected to "angrybirds.com/play", with the online store being moved to "showroom.angrybirds.com". It was like that until November of 2016 when the showroom website was moved to "angrybirds.com/shop", which mainly showed Amazon links to merchandise relating to the The Angry Birds Movie series. The website stayed up until April of 2022 when it was unknowingly shut down. The reasons for this are still unclear. It later reopened in June of 2022 as "angrybirds.com/merch/" where at launch, the Angry Birds x Billebeino merchandise was featured on the top and a link to the Amazon store was at the bottom.
