\u201cGiven the success of Rainbow Rangers<\/em> and Llama Llama<\/em>, I am pleased to report we are now transitioning into the next phase of our growth, which includes product merchandising around these two hit series,\u201d said Andy Heyward, CEO of Genius Brands International. \u201cOur goal from the start, which I have communicated often over the past few years, has been to leverage our content strategy into product merchandising, and we are achieving that goal now, as planned, with nearly every conceivable consumer product category licensed for Rainbow Rangers<\/em> and Llama Llama<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n

He continued, \u201cMoreover, our partners are among the top manufacturers, from toys by Mattel, to vitamins by Integrity Vitamins, to bikes by Dynacraft and apparel by Bentex. In total, we have over 450 licensed SKUs for Rainbow Rangers<\/em> and Llama Llama<\/em> scheduled to come to market over the next twelve months, as well as a planned nationwide live tour for Rainbow Rangers<\/em> from Gershwin Entertainment that will debut in Bentonville, Arkansas. We look forward to providing further updates as future products hit the market.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
