Razer is becoming the first company to turn its April Fools’ Joke into reality. The company known for gaming smartphones will lend some time to create a Toaster. At 2016 April Fools’ eve, Razer joked about Project Breadwinner aimed to bring “Razer Toaster” – a gaming grade kitchen appliance. The CEO reportedly challenged the users to get 1 million likes on the “Give us Razer Toaster” page, and then Razer would make the Toaster.
To successfully reach the goal, interested users started Facebook Group which further accelerated the Razer Toaster movement. Surprisingly, users did the best and finally reached 1 million likes on the given page. Now working on his words, Tan confirmed the development of the Razer Toaster in the next few years.
While addressing the fans via Facebook, Liang Tan said, “Alright – I didn’t think these guys were going to make it – but they did. It was to hit 1M likes and with each Razer Toaster tattoo being equivalent to 100K likes each….and they now have 12 Razer Toaster tattoos. Well….what can I say. I’ve just officially liked their page – and I’m going to put together my team of designers and engineers. It will take a few years – but I’ll be sure to share the progress – and make it a community affair”.

Tan misjudged the Razer fans’ potential, and now he has to fulfill his promise. It too early to get pricing, features and specification details of Razer Toaster. Users need to wait for some more time, before the actual product details surface.
