In a bear-y scary twist that bridges the world of Care-A-Lot with the chilling universe of Universal Monsters, Cloudco Entertainment and Universal Products & Experiences have joined forces for a collaboration that merges the Care Bears with iconic legends of horror.
The new Care Bears x Universal Monsters mash-up encompasses a wide range of categories including apparel, accessories, stationery, home décor, collectables, plush and health and beauty.
It features pairings such as Grumpy Bear as Frankenstein’s Monster and Cheer Bear as The Bride of Frankenstein, with the first drop launching at specialty retailer, Hot Topic. Select items are available now and additional product drops are planned throughout the summer and autumn.
Items range from apparel and plush, through to spooky health and beauty care and Loungefly bags and accessories including a Bedtime Bear Mummy Mini Backpack and Card Holder and Funko Pop figures.
“Partnering with Universal Products & Experiences to blend the endearing world of Care Bears with the legendary Universal Monsters is a delightful surprise for our fans,” commented Robert Prinzo, head of licensing at Cloud Entertainment. “We’re excited to unveil a distinctive collection that combines two worlds our fans never imagined would meet.”
