Aardman brings Tomy on board for Canimals
Aardman Rights has secured toy manufacturer, Tomy, as the European Master toy partner for Canimals - the 52 x 7 minute children’s series made in a combination of CGI animation and live action - on behalf of VOOZCLUB.
Tomy have come on board to produce and distribute a range of toy and gift lines including plush, toy figures, electronics, arts and crafts for UK, France, Benelux, Germany, Austria and Switzerland, and Capsule Toys for all of Europe.
Head of rights at Aardman, Sean Clarke, commented: “We are pleased to be able to announce Tomy as our master toy partner for Canimals, the series is a highly entertaining mix of CGI and real world scenes and we are sure that Tomy will interpret this unique franchise into a compelling range of toys.”
Paul Fogarty, European sales and marketing director at Tomy added: “We are excited to be working with Aardman and VOOZCLUB on Canimals. Canimals is a highly innovative and fun series that will really capture the imagination of girls and boys. With our proven track record in the girls and collectibles markets we are looking forward to emulating that innovation and fun within our product ranges.”
Canimals is a co-production from VOOZCLUB, BRB International and Aardman featuring a collection of super-cute, can-shaped animals that live unnoticed among us, hiding themselves in plain sight as boring old cans. Once the humans are gone these delightful urban pixies spring to life to cause all sorts of mischief.
