m4e On Board Super Wings

HÖHENKIRCHEN/MUNICH: m4e has signed on as the licensing agent representing the animated preschool series Super Wings within German-speaking territories in all categories, excluding TV and home entertainment.

The 52×11-minute series from FunnyFlux, EBS, CJ E&M, Little Airplane Productions, Qianqi Animation and co‐production partner KiKA follows the adventures of Jett, a confident jet plane who travels around the world delivering special packages to children. Super Wings is slated to air in Germany on KiKA in prime time in early 2017.

The Super Wings toy line, which is distributed worldwide by Alpha Toys, will launch in Germany, Austria and Switzerland midway through next year. The series has been sold into more than 40 territories since its launch on EBS in 2014.

“Super Wings has all the important ingredients to succeed and is a very promising property based on the high toy sales from markets such as France, Spain and Italy,” said Judith Boehnke, m4e’s licensing manager for G/A/S. “The prime-time broadcast slot on KiKA offers the ideal conditions for this action‐packed preschool brand to establish itself in the German‐speaking markets.”
