Splash Into A World of New Collectibles
Australian toymaker TPF Toys is making a big splash for its U.S. debut with the introduction of SplashlingsTM, a new collectible mermaid-themed toy line, invented by the famed Pound Puppies® creator, Mike Bowling. Launching exclusively at Toys “R” Us® U.S stores, Splashlings is a beautiful line of mermaid characters and their friends that will be introduced coinciding with New York International Toy Fair and the world debut of Play Fair. An all-new animated Splashlings digital series from Shaftesbury, the creator and producer of hit kids’ series including Life with Derek, will debut simultaneously. Splashlings collectible cards are also planned with Upper Deck for later this year.
The Splashlings toy line features An Ocean Full of FriendsTM, including a special group of mermaids and shells, as well as more than 100 pets, underwater gems, and treasures for Kids to collect and play with! TPF Toys will preview Splashlings at Hong Kong Toy Fair in their new showroom, Unit 619A Tower B New Mandarin Plaza 14 Science Museum Road; followed by New York International Toy Fair in booth 2016, as well as Play Fair, a consumer toy event held on the first two days of New York Toy Fair, showcasing the coolest new toys for 2016 to kids and families.
