DHX Brands has appointed Spin Master to distribute the upcoming range of "Teletubbies" toys in the U.S., Canada, France, Germany and Benelux.

The deal, which will see Spin Master distribute the plush, plastics and bath toys of "Teletubbies" master toy licensee Character Options, was negotiated on behalf of DHX Brands by CPLG.

“Significant momentum is building for the global launch of 'Teletubbies' and the addition of Spin Master adds a real catalyst to our partnerships on the brand,” says Peter Byrne, executive vice president, DHX Brands. “With their excellent retail relationships and expertise in understanding the marketing needs of high-profile toy brands, they are the ideal distributor in these core markets.”

The "Teletubbies" toy range is slated to hit shelves in 2016, following the launch of the show on U.K. commissioning channel CBeebies. DHX will be showcasing its new take on the classic brand this week at Licensing Expo. To find out more about DHX's plans for the property, check out the June feature "The Return of 'Teletubbies.'"
