Talking Tom & Friends brand continues to grow

New animated series Talking Tom Heroes: Suddenly Super being planned, as well as raft of consumer products.

Outfit7 and its North American global licensing partner, Epic Story Media, has revealed a host of new deals for the Talking Tom & Friends brand, as well as a new 3D CGI animated series for global distribution.

Talking Tom Heroes: Suddenly Super will see the characters transform into superheroes who must unlock their superpower potential to save the day – all while keeping their day jobs.

“Talking Tom Heroes: Suddenly Super is an exciting new development for Outfit7’s groundbreaking entertainment brand, which already has 79 billion global views of its video content,” said Ken Faier, president and founder of Epic Story Media. “We’re thrilled to be able to work with Outfit7 and take a brand with such incredible global reach to new heights.”

In addition to this, Epic Story Media and Outfit7 have partnered with Lukis Global to launch a range of new Talking Tom & Friends products at US retailers in the food, apparel, jewellery and health and beauty categories.

This autumn will also see the launch of game-connected, interactive product, GameBud Talking Tom (pictured) from direct to fan premium play company, HUGE! Play.

Kevin Mowrer and Adrian Roche, co-ceos of HUGE! Play, said: “We’re incredibly excited to introduce the world to GameBud, an innovative 3D interactive character that will live-connect to your favorite Talking Tom games, while also acting as your very own in-home streamer. It’s an honour to partner with Outfit7 and Epic Story Media on this exciting new milestone and industry first.”
