Toon2Tango has signed an agreement to distribute the first 26 episodes of ThinkerBen & Motor globally, excluding Eastern Europe, Russia and CIS, and co-produce a second season.
The preschool series centers on ThinkerBen, a boy-genius engineer, as he teams up with his robot dog Motor and his talented friends to help the people in his town using gadgets, ingenuity and imagination.
ThinkerBen & Motor promotes teamwork and STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts and math) professions and encourages kids to take innovative approaches to everyday challenges. It also highlights how technology can empower them to make a positive impact on the world.
The show has already secured broadcaster support in the Balkan region, with backing from United Media Group and Central Media Entertainment.
ThinkerBen & Motor is produced by the independent studio Metaxilasis (OmNom Stories), based in Belgrade. Production is ongoing, and the final delivery of the first 26 episodes is expected in August 2025.
“The Toon2Tango team are incredible professionals, and we are very happy about this partnership,” said Dmitrii Gorbunov, founder of Metaxilasis. “We are confident that with this collaboration, our project will bring joy to children around the world.”
“We have a reputation for successfully bringing diverse, innovative and incredibly entertaining shows to market as both co-producer and distributor, and there’s no doubt that ThinkerBen & Motor fits that description perfectly,” noted Ulli Stoef, co-founder of Toon2Tango. “We are looking forward enormously to working with the talented team at Metaxilasis to bring this awesome and inventive new show to many broadcast and licensing markets around the world, where I am sure it will enjoy a very positive reception.”
