LOS ANGELES, Oct. 23, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — MGA Entertainment, a global leader in children’s toys and entertainment, proudly announces the launch of a new line of plush toys inspired by Fraggle Rock: Back to the Rock under its beloved Little Tikes® brand. As the Master Toy Licensee for The Jim Henson Company’s modern reimagining of Fraggle Rock, MGA brings these iconic characters to life for a new generation of fans.
The new Fraggle Rock: Back to the Rock plush collection celebrates the magic that began with the original 1980s TV series and has been re-envisioned in the Emmy Award™-winning Apple TV+ reboot, combining nostalgia with the soft, colorful designs that have made the Fraggles an enduring favorite. These plush toys are a must-have for both longtime fans and children just discovering the enchanting world of Fraggle Rock.
This vibrant line features plush versions of the beloved Fraggle characters, including Gobo, Red, Wembley, and Mokey, each crafted from high-quality fabrics that replicate the look and feel of the original puppets. Perfect for imaginative play or as a nostalgic collectible, these huggable characters bring the whimsical world of Fraggle Rock to life.
Alongside the Fraggles, fans can also welcome Sprocket, the loyal and intelligent dog, to their homes in a large plush format. With his oversized, soft design, Sprocket is the perfect cuddle companion, making him an ideal gift for kids and collectors alike. His lovable, friendly appearance makes him a standout gift for any occasion.
“We’re excited to bring the magic of Fraggle Rock to life in a whole new way with our Little Tikes brand,” said Isaac Larian, Founder and CEO at MGA Entertainment. “These beloved characters have sparked joy and imagination for generations and partnering with The Jim Henson Company allows us to share their timeless charm with today’s families, inspiring a new wave of fans and making the parent/grandparent and child connection even stronger.”
