Under the Mattel brand, Fisher-Price will debut the first of its new toy collections for Kung Fu Panda 2 and The Penguins of Madagascar at Toy Fair 2011. The additional DreamWorks Animation theatrical releases featured under the licensing relationship include Puss In Boots, The Croods, Madagascar 3 and Legend of the Guardians and the television properties include Kung Fu Panda: Legends of Awesomeness.

"We believe that entrusting DreamWorks Animation's beloved characters to the world's number one toy manufacturer will ensure a fun, innovative and world-class brand presence in stores across the globe," commented Kerry Phelan, head of worldwide consumer products and licensing for DreamWorks Animation. "Together with Mattel and Fisher-Price, we have crafted a new 'pre-cool' strategy to deliver compelling toy lines and unique play experiences that are age-appropriate for 3 - 8 year old movie fans."

"We're excited and proud to be working with a true innovator in high-quality entertainment," said Diana Dunn-Graves, Fisher-Price vice president of marketing. "This alliance is a great fit for Fisher-Price because we put into children's hands the fun-loving characters that DreamWorks Animation brings to life on the big and small screens."

Po and The Furious Five return to the theatres on May 26, 2011 in DreamWorks Animation's Kung Fu Panda 2, a sequel to the blockbuster movie that generated over $631 million at the worldwide box office. The studio plans to launch the Kung Fu Panda: Legends of Awesomeness television series on Nickelodeon during the fall of 2011. An online virtual world featuring the characters from Kung Fu Panda is available on www.kungfupandaworld.com.

This spring, Fisher-Price introduces the Kung Fu Panda 2 toy collection, including action figures, mini collectible figures, role play, and plush. The hallmark item of the collection is the plush Kung Fu Po Wrestler, which will be made available beginning in May, in conjunction with the film's theatrical release. Kids can "jump into the ring" to bend, twist, flop, squeeze, and squash the soft, oversized 15-inch plush � perfect for wrestling. Po knows when he's been challenged to a kung fu wrestling match and responds to kids with quick-witted phrases and comical sound effects.

In 2010, The Penguins of Madagascar TV series was the second highest-rated animated program on all of TV with kids 2 - 11, and it continues to generate excellent ratings on Nickelodeon, remaining the number one program during its Saturday 10:30 AM time spot on broadcast and basic cable with both kids and total viewers. Additionally, the DreamWorks Animation series now airs every weekday afternoon on Nickelodeon. The well-loved Penguin characters will make an appearance in DreamWorks Animation's Madagascar 3, which is scheduled to be released theatrically on May 25, 2012.

This fall, Fisher-Price will introduce The Penguins of Madagascar toy collection, including figures, playsets, role play, and plush, highlighted by the new Regurgitating Rico Launcher. One of the most popular characters from The Penguins of Madagascar is ready to spew... popcorn balls that is! Inspired by the fan-favorite, Rico the penguin, kids can act out his trademark skills with the Regurgitating Rico Launcher. To start the action, kids simply feed up to three balls through Rico's mouth to get ready for the launch. With a swift pull on his legs, Rico lets out a squawk, and boom! Watch those popcorn balls fly! Rico's kooky sound effects are triggered by pulling his legs back and pushing his feet forward.
