Gift Focus - Jan/Feb 2019 (Issue 111)

giftfocus 151 spring fair preview THE PUPPET COMPANY Stand: 5E80-F81 W: thepuppetcompany.com The Puppet company is excited to be showing two brand-new ranges at Spring Fair. Story Tellers has 13 distinct characters, with many more in the works. The range includes superheroes, a wizard, witch, king, queen, fairy and prince – perfect for allowing imaginations to run wild. The toys retail at £9.99, allowing them to occupy the crucial under-£10 price point that, at a high level of detail, makes the toys an easy purchase. Large Dino Heads, retailing at £19.99, have taken a long time to perfect, but the company has achieved an excellent blend of realism and fun with the range. With three designs of Jurassic favourites, the dinosaurs are a wonderful addition to the lineup. Alongside these new developments are additions to the ever- popular Long Sleeve, Finger Puppet, My First Puppet, Full-Bodied and Car Pet ranges. Each new addition is consistent in quality and attention to detail and fits each range superbly. The company’s new gift brand, Wilberry, is proving a huge success, with retailers commenting on the diversity of fabrics and designs, as well as the excellent margin on all items. The eagerly anticipated new Wilberry Dancer and Dolls will be on show, with new Linens, Knitted Snuggles and Woollies. The Wilberry Robots are also shaping up to be hot items for SS19. The recent Super Heroes launch proved a great success, and the company reports high hopes that the ranges will be well- received by retailers and consumers alike in 2019.
