Sinking Ship Entertainment has secured a deal with the educational toy company Safari for a new plush toy based on the CG-rendered chimpanzee character Greybeard from the series Jane.

Produced in association with the Jane Goodall Institute, the live-action/CG-hybrid kids and family series follows 9-year-old Jane Garcia as she embarks on adventures with her friends to help save wild animals. Greybeard is both Jane’s stuffy toy and imaginary friend and chimpanzee. Safari will be developing a variety of sizes of plush based on the character, aiming to be on retail shelves in 2024.

“Safari is a trusted partner and industry leader whose values align with the mission of our series,” said Kate Sanagan, head of sales and distribution. “We are thrilled to bring Greybeard to life and bring the magic of Jane into the arms of our audience.”
