Pop-culture products manufacturer, Heathside Trading, has signed an agreement with Skydance to launch a consumer products line based on the television series, “Foundation,” including die-cast ships, prop replicas, resin figures and busts. The agreement was facilitated by Skydance Animation’s global licensing representative, IMG, as well as KJG. The “Foundation”-licensed line will launch in fall 2024 through selected retail partners and direct-to-consumer through MasterReplicas.com.

“We are so thrilled to be working with Skydance and IMG on this series of prop replicas, ships and die-cast,” says Darren Epstein, executive vice president, global development, Heathside. “As big fans of the TV series, we are excited to offer new ranges of products under our Master Replicas and Khadou brands.”

“We are excited to partner with Heathside to extend our ‘Foundation’ stories through high-quality collectible figurines and vehicles,” says Luis Fernández, head, consumer products, Skydance.

Heathside Trading, through Master Replicas, will make a curated selection of vehicles, prop replicas and figures available over the course of the license. This will allow fans to add to their collections with selected resellers who will be making stock available on a limited basis online. From storyteller, David S. Goyer, and based on Isaac Asimov’s award-winning stories, “Foundation” premiered in 2021.
