"We've seen tremendous success with the licensing of Nickelodeon properties but this range really speaks to the overall strength of the Nickelodeon brand as a whole," says Marianne James, vice president, consumer products, U.K. and Ireland, and European retail sales and marketing, NVCP. "Incorporating the fun, humor and hands-on ethos of Nickelodeon, these products are a brilliant way to encourage children to explore their world and be creative."

The line will launch at The Entertainer stores and online on Monday 5th October 2015, and will be supported by extensive PR and marketing activity to consumers across Q4 and the key Christmas buying season.
From mid-October, a marketing campaign will include product promotion across the Nickelodeon portfolio of networks.
PR activity will include product reviews, competitions and sampling to national consumer media, online portals and bloggers, plus key sell-in to gift guides across the Christmas season. The range will be featured in all Entertainer store windows across the October half term. In addition to an above-the-line marketing campaign, the partners are planning a number of shopping centre activations and demonstration zones within Entertainer stores across the country.
