First Look at Peppa Pig World of Play Dallas/Fort Worth, Texas ---ScRaBBlE

Peppa Pig World of Play opens at Grapevine Mills Mall on Feb. 12, 2019. Take a quick look inside the 14,000 square-foot indoor attraction.


GRAPEVINE, TX - As the attraction manager for the Peppa Pig World of Play, Tyron Calton starts every day by splashing around in muddy puddles. He puts on music and enjoys the satisfying squishing sound as he jumps around in the mud.

Of course it’s not real mud — the floor is covered in carpet with painted brown splotches to represent the puddles. But the sound is real, and it comes from the speakers surrounding the muddy puddle area. And there’s a screen showing Peppa Pig and her family, splashing around in the puddles as well.

It’s Calton’s favorite part of the Peppa Pig World of Play at Grapevine Mills Mall, which opened today (Tuesday, February 12, 2019). The indoor attraction is 14,000 square feet dedicated to all things Peppa Pig. The themed area is part of Entertainment One's (eOne) partnership with Merlin Entertainments (Merlin).

Chances are if you have a kid younger than 10 years old, you already know who Peppa Pig is, but for those who don’t, Peppa Pig is the eponymous star of the British animated preschool television program Peppa Pig, which airs on Nickelodeon and Nick Jr. in the U.S. The show follows Peppa, her family and her friends (Suzy Sheep, Rebecca Rabbit and Candy Cat, among others). The episodes cover the typical tropes of children’s programming: playing games, riding bikes and learning how to whistle.

Though Peppa Pig is a British show, she has a huge following outside of the United Kingdom: In fact, the first World of Play opened in Shanghai last year. The World of Play at Grapevine Mills Mall is the first in the United States.

The World of Play has 14 different areas for children to interact and play in, including Peppa Pig's Treehouse, Rebecca Rabbit's Underground Adventure, George's Fort, Grandad Dog's garage, Miss Rabbit at the Supermarket, Madame Gazelle School Bus Trip and Grandpa Pig's Train. There’s even a theater that plays Peppa Pig episodes!


The attraction is marketed toward children younger than 8, and it will be available for birthdays. There’s also a gift shop with Peppa Pig-themed merchandise, and admission will be $20 for children and $10 for adults on weekends and during the summer. On weekdays and during the school year, admission for adults is $5.

The day before the official Peppa Pig World of Play opening, the attraction hosted a preview for families lucky enough to get an invitation. Dozens of children and their parents splashed in the muddy puddles, rode tricycles and slid around in George’s Fort.


Paul Hellman came with his wife, his mother-in-law and his daughter, who was celebrating her second birthday. Hellman said she had just been introduced to Peppa Pig, but loved the World of Play.

“She’s pretty overwhelmed by everything, but she likes it,” he told the Fort Worth Star-Telegram.

Her favorite spot was the toddler garden area, with soft dinosaurs and puzzles to put together and throw around. Though Hellman didn’t want her to play in the bigger kid areas because she was still too small, he plans on coming back with his family.

“We’re from Fort Worth, and we’ll definitely find a weekend to come out here and burn off some energy for a while,” he said.


Peppa Pig World of Play Dallas/Fort Worth at Grapevine Mills Mall is open now. Visit https://www.peppapigworldofplay.com/dallasfw/en/ for more information, and make sure to follow Peppa Pig World of Play on Facebook and Instagram for the latest news and updates!



Peppa Pig airs on Nick Jr. and Viacom’s Channel 5 Milkshake in the U.K., and on Nickelodeon and Nick Jr. channels globally.

Peppa Pig is created by Neville Astley and Mark Baker and produced by Astley Baker Davies Ltd and Entertainment One (eOne). The animated preschool show is one of eOne’s key properties. In 2017, it announced that 117 new episodes were entering production, which will start airing in 2019 and take the total episode count to 381. Peppa Pig will be celebrating her 15th anniversary throughout 2019 with a raft of activities for fans.

Genius Brands Completes Production of 'Rainbow Rangers' Season One; Merchandise to Launch July/August 2019 ---ScRaBBlE

Original Genius Brands International, Inc. Press Release via GlobeNewswire:

Genius Brands International, Inc. Issues Shareholder Letter

Genius Brands International's RAINBOW RANGERS, currently airing on Nick Jr. in the U.S.



Genius Brands International's (Nasdaq:GNUS) new preschool brand, Rainbow Rangers, airs in the U.S. on Nick Jr. with the retail launch of over 300 products coming to market beginning July/August 2019.

Genius Brands International, Inc.

BEVERLY HILLS, Calif., Feb. 19, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Genius Brands International, Inc. "Genius Brands" (NASDAQ: GNUS), the global brand management company that creates and licenses multimedia entertainment content for children released a letter to shareholders from Chairman & CEO Andy Heyward. The complete letter follows:

Dear Genius Brands Shareholders:

On Friday, we closed a small financing of $2 million.

On Friday we also delivered the last episode of our 26 half hours (52x11 mins) of Rainbow Rangers to Nickelodeon, which will continue to be broadcast over the coming months, and hopefully much, much longer.

These seemingly disconnected events are, in fact, quite positively connected. The Rainbow Rangers series continues to perform successfully, and we anticipate moving forward and greenlighting a second season shortly. We want to make sure that we have adequate liquidity to undertake the production and move quickly. We have over 300 products contracted and coming into the marketplace this year and early next year. New episodes being broadcast will ensure a continuing presence for the Rainbow Rangers brand on TV for a long time. The presence on TV, of course, stimulates the appetite for the children’s consumer products when they arrive on shelf, and every Rainbow Rangers product sold generates immediate royalty income for Genius Brands.

Many of our investors have been patient with us since the beginning. As I have often said, it takes four years to go from the creation of a concept to see an animated series produced, distributed, licensed, and consumer products from it on the retail shelf.

The road to making hit shows is bumpy. Some shows succeed. Some don't. Building a catalog of quality entertainment is like building a portfolio of quality stocks. There are ups and downs, but one thing has been clearly demonstrated again and again and again. It only takes one hit to pay for the entire catalog investment.

Something else which is certain is that animated catalogs are an extremely valuable asset class. They endure. They are international. They spawn multiple income streams through the consumer products that come from the characters. They are impervious to technology, as we see good content will always find distribution regardless of whatever new platforms and technologies emerge. Tom and Jerry was made in 1939 as shorts to run in movie theaters. They eventually played on television, home video, and ultimately on every new digital format that was invented. Tom and Jerry is STILL successful and discovered by kids every day. One of the first shows I had the privilege to work on when I was a young writer, was The Flintstones. Today one can still buy Flintstones cereals in the supermarkets and buy Flintstones vitamins in the drug stores.

Rainbow Rangers today has over 300 consumer products coming to shelves and, in fact, one of them is a licensed vitamin. We also have toys and books and apparel, and bikes and costumes and bedding and footwear and even toothpaste.

We will always have a need for cash to fund new productions, as we continue to grow our catalog and build our asset base. The important point to note, however, is that the increased asset base is accretive, and we will never raise money unless we believe the value added is greater than the impact of dilution.

As the largest shareholder of Genius Brands, nobody is more focused on that reality than me. It was recently disclosed in an SEC Form 4 filing that I just bought a large block of stock. It could only be had by paying a premium of over $3/share, to the trading price, which was then a little over $2. I did so to acquire that large block, which I knew existed, and I did so because I believed it would ultimately be worth significantly more than what I was paying for it.

In the world of content creation, those who are patient, ultimately win. It is not insignificant to note that Marvel closed the year 2000 trading at $1.42/share. In that year, the assets of Marvel were Spider-Man, Iron Man, The Incredible Hulk, X-Men, Captain America, Thor, and The Avengers, among others. In 2009, that same Marvel with essentially the same character assets was sold to the Walt Disney Company for $4.2 billion.

Personally, in the past, I have sold my last company to Cap Cities/ABC and the Walt Disney Company. It too had animated characters, which we then established: Inspector Gadget, and Strawberry Shortcake, and Care Bears, and Dennis the Menace and The Archies and Sabrina the Teenage Witch. I am familiar with the appetite globally for animated content. It is growing, not receding, and I believe stronger than ever, those who show patience will ultimately win. Often, they win BIG.

The characters we are producing and developing at Genius Brands are tiffany brands. Llama Llama has sold over 20 million books and has become a staple of kid’s publishing. Our Baby Genius property is a classic in its own right with tremendous brand equity. Warren Buffett's Secret Millionaires Club is like no other, and the lessons will stand the test of time, as will also be the case with Thomas Edison’s Secret Lab. It will also be the case with several brands that we have through our joint venture with the great Stan Lee, Stan Lee Comics. Meanwhile, Rainbow Rangers is well along that same road.

I often like to quote Warren Buffett, because we have worked together for many years. He has been in many of our cartoons, and his lessons are well documented in our animated Secret Millionaires Club. However, Warren’s partner Charlie Munger, another super billionaire is equally wise, and I think that his lessons are no less valuable.

“The Big Money is not in the money and the selling, but in the waiting.”…Charlie Munger

“It’s waiting that helps you as an investor, and a lot of people just can’t stand to wait.”…Charlie Munger

“The stock market is a device for transferring money from the impatient to the patient.”…Warren Buffett

I want to thank all our shareholders who have shown patience as we have built our catalog and as we continue to build our business. As I have often said and continue to believe more than ever, patience will be rewarded.

Sincerely,

Andy Heyward
Chairman & CEO
Genius Brands International, Inc.

eOne and Hunter Original Gear Up for Peppa Pig Collection ---ScRaBBlE

Entertainment One (eOne) and the Edinburgh-based footwear company Hunter Original will celebrate the joy of jumping into muddy puddles this summer. The companies are collaborating on a limited-edition collection of footwear and accessories for children — the Hunter x Peppa Pig collection. The exciting partnership coincides with the launch of brand-new episodes including a two-part celebratory special, where Peppa and George have their first-ever festival experience. Summertime music and arts events are two things that are central to the DNA of the Hunter brand, which aims to outfit festivalgoers for every type of weather.


Set to launch in a year full of Peppa Pig celebrations around the globe, including the 15th anniversary of the television series in the UK & Australia, the playful new camo print designs feature the show’s much-loved characters, Peppa Pig and her brother, George. Rain boots, backpacks and umbrellas in three different styles will be available for kids ages 2 to 5 in the UK, North America, Canada, Japan, Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Scandinavia, France, and Italy this July. Within the collection are the new Kids Grab Handle Wellington boots, cleverly designed so that small hands can pull them on all by themselves.

“There’s a natural synergy between these two British brands that makes this partnership the perfect fit.” says Andrew Carley, executive vice president of global licensing at eOne Family & Brands. “The vibrant collection that Hunter has designed will create must-have items for Peppa’s many fans and we look forward to making a big splash at retail when the products launch in key markets this summer.”

“At the core of a great Hunter experience is fun, adventure and preferably a muddy puddle. I can think of no better partner to bring this spirit to life than Peppa Pig,” said Alasdhair Willis, creative director at Hunter.

The Hunter x Peppa Pig collection of accessories and rain boots includes the new Kids Grab Handle Wellington boots, designed so that small hands can pull them on all by themselves. Ranging from £30 to £45, it is aimed at ages 2-5 and will be available in UK, North America, Canada, Japan, Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Scandinavia, France and Italy in July 2019.

This year marks the 15th anniversary of the Peppa Pig television series in the UK and Australia.

The series follows Peppa, George, their parents, grandparents and little animal friends in their day-to-day lives, going to nursery school, buying spaghetti from the supermarket, flying kites or going to the beach.

The recent announcement adds to eOne’s anniversary efforts, which to date have included partnerships with the likes of Character Options (plush, figures), Penguin (books), Redan (magazine specials) and Enseco (figurines).

eOne has been promoting Peppa’s birthday with a number of new initiatives, including 10 new episodes of the series, and a different two-part special about the characters attending their first-ever music festival, in April. The episodes will be combined into one film and get a cinematic release in Australia and the UK.

This year also happens to be the Year of the Pig in China, and the brand has been growing in the region with the recent consumer products deal naming Alpha Group as master toy partner to create play sets, figurines and role-play items, which launched at the end of 2018. eOne is also capitalizing on the celebrations with a different two-part Chinese New Year special, sold to Nickelodeon and several free-to-air broadcasters around the world. eOne also signed a recent partnership with leading Chinese e-commerce platform Tmall to sell its products and help sell its products.

Peppa Pig is wildly popular. The children’s television series has been translated into more than 40 languages and is broadcast in 180-plus territories, including on many Nickelodeon channels around the world and on Viacom’s Channel 5 Milkshake in the U.K. The brand is a licensing powerhouse, with total retail sales in 2017 reaching US$1.2 billion for the little pig. Meanwhile, licensing and merchandising revenue reached US$59.3 million that same year, driven by growth in the US where L&M revenue increased by more than 170%. Last year, eOne’s Family & Brands business grew 29% to US$97.5 million in the first half of the year due to continued strength from Peppa, which was up 18%, and its CEO is hoping to reach $2 billion by 2020.

A brand-new Peppa Pig Live! stage show is also set to launch in the UK in October 2019, and will run throughout the whole of 2020, and a musical album is also set to be released this year. Peppa Pig season eight will also debut on Nick USA this year.

Peppa Pig is created by Neville Astley and Mark Baker and produced by Astley Baker Davies Ltd and Entertainment One (eOne). The animated preschool show is one of eOne’s key properties. In 2017, it announced that 117 new episodes were entering production, which will start airing in 2019 and take the total episode count to 381. Peppa Pig will be celebrating her 15th anniversary throughout 2019 with a raft of activities for fans.

Hunter is best known for its Original rubber boot and makes footwear and outerwear suited to a variety of weather conditions. Hunter has the Hunter Original brand, which is more urban and fashion-oriented, and Hunter Field, which is more about performance and countryside pursuits.

Hunter is built on its 160 year heritage of designing footwear and outerwear to protect from the weather and perform across all terrains. The British brand, founded in 1856 by American entrepreneur Henry Lee Norris holds two Royal Warrants of Appointment to HM The Queen and HRH The Duke of Edinburgh. Willis was appointed creative director in 2013 when two new brand categories, Hunter Original and Hunter Field, were introduced.
