“The Pinataverse and the breadth of Smashlings and Bashlings bring endless opportunities to create diverse and unique products, as we bring the rich story-verse and fun-filled elements to life for fans and consumers. We look forward to working with retailers in the coming months, with a SS24 launch as our shared focus.”
Will Ochoa, chief commercial officer at Toikido, continued: “In developing the Pinata Smashlings IP, we had a very clear vision to enable children to immerse themselves in the ‘Piñataverse’ both on and off screen by connecting the digital with the physical.
“Partnering with Character World Brands and developing a suite of exciting Home Lifestyle products supports this objective and will enable children across the UK to enjoy Pinata Smashlings bedding, towels and much more. We now look forward to working closely with the Character World team and in seeing this new range hit retailers’ shelves from next spring.”
