PLAYMONSTER GOES WILD OVER FIVE CROWNS’ 25th ANNIVERSARY

5 Crowns

Industry-Leading Toyco Celebrates Award-Winning Card Game with Limited Edition Release

BELOIT, Wisc. (June 2, 2021) — Five Crowns goes WILD this June, as the five-suited rummy-style card game celebrates a quarter-century of books and runs, and years of fun with PlayMonster’s limited Five Crowns 25th Anniversary edition release.

Throughout its 25-year production, Five Crowns has been a staple in exciting game nights and many social gatherings. The game has even earned itself a multitude of awards from toy industry experts, which includes the Parents’ Choice Award in 1996, Games Magazine’s ‘Games 100’ Award in 1997, and a spot on Toy Directory Monthly’s Top-10 Most Wanted Card Games in 2008. This year, Five Crowns has also received praise from Yahoo! News and The Daily Beast as a game that is “easy to pick up” and become “instantly hooked” on, for people seeking engaging play and relief during an ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

“I loved games that made me think, so it has always been my goal to create games that are fun but challenging for players of most ages.” says Marsha Jean Falco, inventor of Five Crowns. “With Five Crowns, I wanted it to be as accessible as it is challenging – and it’s won some awards. I think people like it.”

With summer on the way, PlayMonster is also collaborating with Pitch, an on-demand camping concierge service, to provide decks of the award-winning card game in the welcome coolers of campers across midwestern America. With this year’s camping season currently underway, now is as good a time as any to enjoy the outdoors and make some memories over the perfect game of Five Crowns.

“We’ve noticed that Five Crowns has become a must-have item on game night lists over the years,” says Lisa Wuennemann, Associate VP of Marketing at PlayMonster. “Since 1996, there has been so much love and appreciation for this game, and we’re very excited to celebrate its 25th year with the release of a limited, collector’s edition of Five Crowns.”

PlayMonster’s Five Crowns 25th Anniversary Edition will feature a specially designed collectors tin, 116 cards, a custom scorepad, and a rulebook for 1-7 players, ages 8 and up. The product will be available at Barnes and Noble for $14.99, this June.

PLAYMONSTER PARTNERS WITH DUDE PERFECT TO KICK OFF SUMMER KOOSH LAUNCH

Playmonster Partners With Dude Perfect To Kick Off Summer Koosh Launch

High-energy Fivesome to Create Epic Video Segment for Iconic Hasbro Brand

BELOIT, Wisc. (May 11, 2021) — To kick off its highly anticipated summer launch of Koosh™, PlayMonster has partnered with YouTube mega-stars Dude Perfect for an action-packed branded content campaign celebrating the brand’s retail launch in July.

Famous for their wildly popular stunts, trick shots and insane challenges, the Dude Perfect team of Tyler Toney, Cody Jones, Garrett Hilbert, and twins Coby and Cory Cotton will be bringing high energy Koosh action to fans across YouTube and other social channels and inviting viewers to show off their own Koosh skills in a national #KooshChallenge. With a devoted fan base of over 100 million followers, Dude Perfect’s audience will be treated to a video segment like no other in an episode of their popular Overtime show.

“The entire Dude Perfect team is so pumped to be working with PlayMonster on the launch of Koosh,” said Toney. “We came up with a brand-new Overtime segment specifically for this launch and we can’t wait to unveil it. It’s unlike anything our fans have ever seen before – get ready!”

“Dude Perfect is the ‘perfect’ fit to help us celebrate the relaunch of the Koosh brand – their blend of action-packed fun videos appeal to everyone,” said Scott Flynn, VP Sales & Marketing at PlayMonster. “Their video segment will highlight all the things we love about Koosh and will showcase the play and fun for all ages.”

First introduced in 1986 the “easy to catch, hard to put down” Koosh ball took the world by storm. With that same focus on great play, Koosh is once again lined up to be a must-have toy of the year.  In addition to the Koosh balls: Original, Mondo, Clip and the all-new Mini size, the line will also include indoor/outdoor play with the Flingshot, Double Paddle Playset, Hoops, Woosh and Koosh Sharp Shot – an all-new innovative electronic game with lights and sounds for solo or team play.

“Through our continued partnership with PlayMonster, we are thrilled to re-establish this nostalgic pop culture brand with the Dude Perfect team,” said Casey Collins, GM and SVP, Global Licensed Consumer Products at Hasbro. “Consumers have fond memories of Koosh and they’ll love the whole line of new products.”

Koosh launches at Target stores at the end of July, accompanied by its kickoff campaign with Dude Perfect airing on Monday, July 26, 2021.

PLAYMONSTER EXPANDS GLOBAL FOOTPRINT AS SNAP SHIPS BLASTS INTO KOREAN MARKET

Snap Ships Endcap 02 E1620330619922

Build to Battle® Construction Line Rolls Out With a National Children’s Day Launch

 

BELOIT, Wis. (May 5, 2021) – PlayMonster LLC is pleased to announce that its popular Snap Ships® line is expanding into the Korean market.

In partnership with third-party distributor HEM, the construction line Snap Ships will be hitting store shelves in time for Children’s Day on May 5th — a much-loved national holiday that celebrates children of all ages. The line will see a full national rollout across specialty and mass-market retail with media support. Adding to the line’s exciting Build to Battle® play experience, the Snap Ships App and Season One of its digital animated series, Snap Ships: Dawn of Battle, are being translated into Korean, maximizing its immersive toy experience for consumers.

This market launch further expands PlayMonster’s global footprint with children already playing with Snap Ships in countries like Australia, the UK, and South Africa, with more to come.

“We are excited to bring the brand to a strong market like Korea with a full national rollout,” said Richard Gill, Vice President International, PlayMonster. “It demonstrates that Snap Ships’ dynamic new Build to Battle® play belies language and cultural barriers, appealing to kids and families everywhere.”

This year has already seen significant growth for PlayMonster, with the rebranding of Interplay to PlayMonster UK and the company’s recent acquisition of BriteBrush™. On the global stage, PlayMonster continues to see success with Snap Ships, 5 Second Rule®, and the must-have game Drone Home™, which will see further distribution in Fall 2021 in Russia, Hungary, Turkey, Finland, Sweden, and Israel.

“With a presence in 60 countries, our aim is to continue to expand our business internationally in tandem with our partners, like HEM, and further develop our business relations,” continued Gill. “Asia is becoming a growth market — Korea is spearheading that — with India, China, and Japan following suit.”

Designed for kids ages 8 and up, Snap Ships is a collectible, durable and versatile modular building system that stands up to action play. Snap Ships invites kids to build, battle, play and display an exciting array of cool spacecraft, merging two of the biggest play patterns for boys—action-play and construction. Each Snap Ships comes with a mysterious UJU tech piece that holds special value hidden inside the box.

More than just a toy line, Snap Ships creates a 360-degree play experience inviting kids into the Snap Ships universe through an immersive animated series from the acclaimed content studio, Wind Sun Sky Entertainment, and a free interactive AR app from highly successful video game developers and Snap Ships inventors, Scott Pease and Jeff Swenty (Tony Hawk, Guitar Hero, Call of Duty). The app is rated E for everyone and is available for free for iOS on the Apple App Store and Android via the Google Play Store.

HOLLIE HOLMES JOINS PLAYMONSTER AS GLOBAL HEAD OF LICENSING

Hollie Holmes Playmonster Scaled

Veteran Toy Industry Executive Brings Licensing Expertise to Growing Portfolio of Brands

Beloit, WI (May 3, 2020)PlayMonster LLC is pleased to announce the appointment of Hollie Holmes to the role of Global Head of Licensing, effective immediately.

In this newly created role, Holmes will oversee the company’s global licensing business with an emphasis on the development and expansion of new Intellectual Property across new and existing categories.  She will report to Scott Flynn, Vice President of Sales and Marketing at PlayMonster.

Holmes is an agile leader with over 20 years of consumer products experience in identifying, securing, and implementing partnerships with leading global entertainment, gaming, celebrity, influencers, toy, automotive, and pop-culture brands. She has a long history of developing and maintaining strong executive relationships and is a collaborative partner, negotiating global agreements to increase brand awareness, profitability, and sales.

“Hollie brings vast experience and demonstrated success in building strong licensing programs that impact business in a meaningful way,” said Flynn.  “It’s a whole new level of focus for us that we expect will not only amplify our existing portfolio but open more doors to exciting new opportunities.”

Most recently, Holmes served as Senior Director of Strategic Development: Global Licensing Acquisitions and Entertainment Partnerships at Mattel, where she was responsible for entertainment partnerships and license acquisitions across Mattel’s global portfolio, including those for its iconic brands – including Barbie, Hot Wheels, and Fisher-Price. She oversaw the acquisitions for hundreds of licenses each year, negotiating and executing agreements with partners, and evaluating and acquiring new content in various stages of development.

Tim Kilpin, President of PlayMonster, said, “Hollie is one of the most widely respected and visionary executives in the licensing industry today, and we couldn’t be happier that Hollie chose to continue her career with PlayMonster.”

“Working with Tim previously at Mattel was an incredible experience, and I’ve always known I wanted to work with him again,” said Holmes. “Scott, and the entire PlayMonster team are innovative, fun, known as a great partner, and incredibly agile, which I’ve learned brings the term “moving quickly” to a whole new level.  I’m thrilled at the opportunity to help expand our focus and accelerate growth for the PlayMonster team.”

PlayMonster is aggressively continuing to build its portfolio of brands and content-driven IP across categories, strengthening its activity not only in core categories but incrementally with the introduction of new business lines, including Koosh and BriteBrush, that significantly scale the company’s growth and leadership position.

Publicity: By participating in the Sweepstakes, Entrants automatically confer on Sponsor an irrevocable, non-exclusive, perpetual, royalty-free worldwide, fully paid-up, assignable license to use his or her name, photograph, likeness, statements, Instagram profile/handle, biographical information, city and state address for advertising, publicity and promotional purposes in all media, including, without limitation, in perpetuity, without further notice, approval, attribution, or any compensation (except to the extent prohibited by law) and agree to execute specific consent to such use upon request. Entrant further agrees, upon Sponsor’s request and without compensation, to use best efforts to assist Sponsor in obtaining a similar grant of rights from Friend.
  6. Terms & Conditions: Sponsor reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to cancel, terminate, modify, or suspend the Sweepstakes should virus, bug, non-authorized human intervention, fraud, or other cause beyond Sponsor control corrupt or affect the administration, security, fairness, or proper conduct of the Sweepstakes. In such case, Sponsor may select the potential winner from all eligible Entries received prior to and/or after (if appropriate) the action taken by Sponsor. Sponsor reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to disqualify any individual who tampers or attempts to tamper with the entry process or the operation of the Sweepstakes or violates these Official Rules. Any attempt by an entrant to deliberately damage any website or undermine the legitimate operation of the Sweepstakes may be a violation of criminal and civil laws.

  7. Limitation of Liability: By submitting an entry, You waive any privacy expectations that You might have with respect to the Entry or any personal information provided. By participating, participants agree (and agree to confirm in writing) to the extent permitted by law to release and hold harmless Sponsor, the Sweepstakes Entities, Instagram, and any and all Internet server(s) and access provider(s) and their subsidiaries, affiliates, advertising and promotion agencies, partners, representatives, agents, successors, assigns, employees, officers, and directors, (collectively the “Released Parties”) from any liability, illness, injury, death, loss, litigation, claim, or damage that may occur, directly or indirectly, whether caused by negligence or not, from: (i) such participation in the Sweepstakes and/or acceptance, possession, use, or misuse of any prize or any portion thereof; (ii) technical failures of any kind, including but not limited to the malfunction of any computer, cable, network, hardware, or software, or other mechanical equipment; (iii) the unavailability or inaccessibility of any transmissions, telephone, or Internet service; (iv) unauthorized human intervention in any part of the entry process or the Sweepstakes; (v) electronic or human error in the administration of the Sweepstakes or the processing of Entries.

Further, in any such dispute, under no circumstances shall You be permitted to obtain awards for, and You hereby waive all rights to, punitive, incidental, or consequential damages, including reasonable attorney’s fees, other than Your actual out-of-pocket expenses (i.e. costs associated with entering this Sweepstakes or being tagged in an Entry). You further waive all rights to injunctive relief and have damages multiplied or increased. Some jurisdictions do not allow the limitations or exclusion of liability, so the above may not apply to You.
  9. Miscellaneous: If any provision of the Official Rules or the application of any such provision to any person or circumstance shall be declared to be invalid, unenforceable or void by a court of competent jurisdiction, such decision shall not have the effect of invalidating or voiding the remainder of the Official Rules, it being the intent and agreement of the parties that the Official Rules shall be deemed amended by modifying such provision to the extent necessary to render it valid, legal and enforceable while preserving its intent or, if such modification is not possible, by substituting therefore another provision that is valid, legal and enforceable so as to give effect to Sponsor’s intent. Sponsor’s failure to enforce any term of these Official Rules will not constitute a waiver of that provision. Entrants agree to waive any rights to claim ambiguity of these Official Rules. In the event there is a discrepancy or inconsistency between disclosures or other statements contained in any Sweepstakes-related materials, privacy policy or terms of use, and/or the terms and conditions of the Official Rules, the Official Rules shall prevail, and the discrepancy will be resolved in Sponsor’s sole and absolute discretion.
