Trollz Fashion Dolls: Fall 2005

PAWTUCKET, RI - April 2005 - It's a hair thing! Licensed worldwide by DIC Entertainment, a leading independent children's entertainment company, TROLLZ are the contemporary version of the classic colorful, spiky-haired Troll characters that became a global sensation in the Sixties. Centered on a group of five girl friends that live in the whimsical city of Trollopolis, the 21st century TROLLZ merges the teenage lifestyle with a touch of technology and a dusting of magic to create a unique property for tweens that is cool, empowering and aspirational. Hasbro, Inc. will bring the fabulous group of friends to life with a full line of super stylish dolls and playsets that gives girls all of their favorite doll play - hair, fashion and friendship.

"TROLLZ focuses on the things that are most important to young girls - fashion, friendship and, of course, hair," said Valerie Jurries, vice president of girls toys for Hasbro, Inc. "We are particularly excited that the essence of TROLLZ is their wild and extreme 'hair' which is such an important aspect of fashion doll play patterns. There is no other property out there that has this magnitude of hair and brand equity."

Nancy Fowler, President, Worldwide Consumer Products, DIC stated, "Hasbro has developed a creative and exciting new toy line that reflects the essence of TROLLZ and brings a unique playing experience of fun, fantasy, interaction and lots of wild hair. We are fortunate to have a toy partner that completely understood our vision for this brand from the beginning!"

Following are highlights of Hasbro's magical new TROLLZ line:
