Super Wings flies onto Tiny Pop

Alpha Animation adds new free to air partner for fast growing preschool animation.

The burgeoning licensing programme for preschool animation Super Wings has been given a boost with the news that the show is to air on Tiny Pop.

Alpha Animation and Toys has secured a deal with Sony Pictures Television Networks for the free to air channel.

Debuting on the network on Monday November 20, season one of the action-packed series will be aimed at children aged three to six, showing twice daily on weekdays and weekends.

The brand – which launched in the UK in July – is expected to be one of the top ten new properties of 2017.

Rockpool Licensing is on board to help grow the consumer products programme.

“Tiny Pop is the perfect platform to elevate the Super Wings brand even further following its hugely successful launch this year,” commented Mark Hyndman, UK & Ireland general manager at Alpha Animation. “We are super excited to be partnering with Sony; their enthusiasm and excitement for Super Wings is fantastic.

“In adding Tiny Pop to our key activity already planned for 2018, we’re certain that fans of Super Wings will not be disappointed.”
