Fans can look forward to a new branded Talking Tom interactive product, as well as a range of consumer products at retailers across the U.S. Epic and Outfit7 are also developing a new 3D CGI animated series for global distribution.

The “Talking Tom Heroes: Suddenly Super” series is a new iteration of Outfit7’s successful Talking Tom Heroes brand, which already has a massive and dedicated global fanbase. The series will see the popular characters transform into superheroes who must unlock their superpower potential to save the day – all while keeping their day jobs.

The series is just one of three deals set to deliver more Talking Tom & Friends to its fans worldwide. Epic Story Media and Outfit7 have partnered with Lukis Global Corp, a multi-industry conglomerate and private label manufacturer, to launch a range of new Talking Tom & Friends products at U.S. retailers in the food, apparel, jewelry and health & beauty categories. This fall will see the launch of the GameBud Talking Tom – a first-of-its-kind, game-connected, interactive product.
