Peppa Pig stays with Character

Character Options will remain as Peppa Pig‘s master toy licensee in the U.K. until at least December 2017. The three-year renewal with Entertainment One Licensing comes after Character Options’ global manufacturing deal saw successful toy rollouts from distributors across Australia, Spain, Russia, Italy and Benelux.

Character Options, a subsidiary of U.K.-based Character Group, plans extensions of the Peppa Weebles and Theme Park range for fall/winter 2014, and will also introduce a “Holiday” theme into the U.K. market in spring 2015.

eOne also agreed to a three-year renewal with Jumbo Games, which will commemorate Peppa‘s 10th anniversary with Peppa Pig Muddy Piddle Floor Puzzle. The puzzle will pay tribute to Peppa‘s very first episode. Jumbo will also launch a Peppa Pig Hide and Seek Game ready for retail this fall/winter.
