Bandai To Unveil "Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug & Cat Noir" Toy Line At US Toy Fair 2016
Bandai America is preparing to unveil its toy line for the brand-new animated series Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug & Cat Noir at the 2016 North American International Toy Fair!
As the master toy partner for Zag Heroez' CGI-animated TV series, Bandai will showcase the line at its booth at the show, being held at Javits Convention Center in New York City from Saturday 13th to Tuesday 16th February 2016.
The first season of Miraculous premiered on Nickelodeon USA in December 2015, quickly becoming a ratings hit, having already debuted in France and Korea where it also achieved high ratings.
Bandai will introduce an robust assortment of toys centered on aspirational action play, transformation and friendship, including action dolls for girls, transformational role play, plush pets and fashion dolls, guaranteed to bring the Miraculouys Ladybug brand to life. Targeted to girls ages 4-8, the Miraculous toy line is set to launch this Fall/Autumn at mass and specialty retailers across the world.
"Miraculous' stunning animation appeal immediately attracted us," said Liz Grampp, senior director of brand management, Bandai America.
"The brand's inspirational storyline, lead character and top-notch animation aligns perfectly with Bandai's core competency in content driven character merchandising across action and role play segments.
"We are excited to lead the development of the new action dolls market for girls."
Combining action-packed adventure with superhero elements, Miraculous Tales of Ladybug & Cat Noir is a 3D, CGI-animated sitcom that follows two junior high students, Marinette and Adrien, who have the ability to transform into superheroes Ladybug and Cat Noir, with the help of their Miraculous accessories & magical kwami, Tikki and Plagg! Together, they keep Paris safe from the evil Hawk Moth and his army of mind-controlling akuma. The storylines and adventures are rich with friends, family, fun, secret identity, transformation, villains, fashion, creativity and more, all within the spectacular backdrop of Paris.
Based on an original concept by Zag, the 26-episode series is a co-production between Zag, Method Animation, Toei Animation and SamG, with the participation of TF1, Disney Channel EMEA, SK Broadband and AB droits audiovisuels.
The popular Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug & Cat Noir animated television series will roll out globally over the next three months.

Nickelodeon USA To Premiere Of "School Of Rock" In March 2016
Nickelodeon USA has announced the very exciting news in a new trailer that Nick USA will start to premiere and show School of Rock in March 2016!
Inspired by the hit movie of the same name, School of Rock follows a unique group of prep school students who are in for the change of a lifetime when a down-on-his-luck musician poses as their substitute teacher. At first, the overachieving and rule-following kids are rather unimpressed, but their new teacher, Dewey, uses rock n' roll to ignite their inner expression.
School of Rock stars:
Tony Cavalero (Nickelodeon's Splitting Adam) as "Dewey," a down-on-his-luck musician posing as a substitute teacher, who ultimately becomes the most unique and well-liked teacher the kids have ever had. Although he has an alternative approach to teaching and could probably learn more from his students about history or math, Dewey uses the language of rock n' roll to elevate and inspire his class of kids to reach new heights as the band called "School of Rock."
Ricardo Hurtado as "Freddy," the new kid who brings a fresh rebellious perspective to William B. Travis Prep School. He is an effortlessly "cool" kid who recognizes the opportunity in building the band with Dewey, and challenges the class to take risks in the name of having fun. Freddy is a good role model for Lawrence and Zack, has the same interests as Tomika, and supports Summer when it counts.
Lance Lim (Growing Up Fisher) as "Zack," a reserved child of overbearing parents, who comes out of his shell as the band's electric guitarist. He walks the line between fearing the consequences of breaking the rules and embracing the independence that Dewey encourages. Zack is a good friend to all, and with the confidence he gains from the band he makes the choice to become his own man instead of a "Yale man."
Aidan Miner (Nickelodeon Creative Lab's Homeroom) as "Lawrence" the quirky, technologically-inclined, unabashedly confident keyboardist for the band. He may miss social cues and create messes for the band, but his heart is always in the right place as a team player who completely embraces rock n' roll.
Jade Pettyjohn (Nickelodeon's Henry Danger) as "Summer," the overachiever with perfect attendance and a blind ambition for academics. Not satisfied with playing tambourine in the band, she ultimately becomes the manager when she realizes she can use her organizational skills to the band's benefit. Summer learns to take risks and be a team player, especially when it means getting noticed by her crush, Freddy.
Breanna Yde (Nickelodeon's The Haunted Hathaways) as "Tomika," is the fun-loving bass player who is a bit of a tomboy. Although more comfortable with a skateboard than a microphone, Tomika's peers soon learn that she is a double threat – a gifted bass guitarist who also has some powerful pipes. Tomika is grounded and knows who she is, which is why she is such a great best friend to Summer – together these girls can accomplish anything.
