Hasbro to Create Toys, Games Based on Netflix Series ‘Super Monsters’

Hasbro will team with Netflix to create toys and games for kids under its Playskool brand, based on Netflix’s original preschool series, Super Monsters, Hasbro said in a Friday announcement. Super Monsters is an animated series about a group of preschool-aged kids who are descendants of the world’s most famous monsters. Hasbro’s Super Monsters product line will include collectible figures of the core cast, plus “role play products” and other gear, it said. The product line will debut in the fall in the U.S., with additional markets to follow in 2019, it said. Hasbro and Netflix partnered last year for a collection of games based on the Netflix show Stranger Things.
