Funko Europe will once again take their place amongst the best Toy and Collectible creators with their attendance at both the London and Nuremberg Toy Fairs 2022. Funko is world-renowned for their ever-evolving products, chief among them the beloved Pop! collectibles, and this year their range continues to grow with impressive results across all ranges! Front and centre for 2022 is Funko’s unique collaboration with Netflix. If there’s anyone who can keep pace with the world’s most prolific streaming platform it’s Funko and 2022 sees the exciting arrival of product ranges aligned with mammoth
Korean hit TV show ‘Squid Game’ along with long-time favourite ‘Stranger Things’. Anime also remains a chief focus for Funko with new
lines landing for ‘Attack on Titan’, ‘Demon Slayer’ and ‘My Hero Academia’ among many more! Another exciting addition sees a selection of premium new Vinyl figures. The first wave of the latest range, ‘Gold’ will feature both 5” and 12” figures of some of the world’s most beloved Music, NBA and NFL icons with many more to follow across the entertainment, music and sporting landscape! Funko Games deliver incredible products with top licences across a range of categories. Fan favourite card game ‘Something Wild’ plays their hand to the next level in 2022 with more
incredible cross-property opportunities than ever before! Strategy games also continue to impress with ‘Funkoverse’ adding more collections to its growing roster alongside other titles such as ‘The Goonies: Never Say Die’, ‘Fast and Furious: Highway Heist’ and ‘Disney Hidden Mickeys’.
Loungefly’s quality made bags and wallets continue their ascent with a larger than ever collection of products under their belt - expanding into the European marketplace continues to be hot news as more consumers discover these must-have bags and accessories.
Come and visit Funko Europe at Stand N3 at the London Toy Fair 2022 and at Hall 12 B-08 at the Nuremberg International Toy Fair 2022 and see the incredible variety of products on offer!

Simba Smoby Toys UK invites buyers and retailers to stop by the stand at London Toy Fair 2022 for a spectacular showcase that includes a host of new lines from Smoby, Jada Toys and B-Kind! First, there’s an exciting line-up of dolls
to introduce; the B-Kind collection has been designed not only to be eco-conscious but also to promote positive messages of kindness, creativity, and compassion. Available from January, the dolls are produced to be eco-conscious, made from recycled materials and dressed in eco- fashions; the packaging is environmentally friendly, too. B-Kind dolls come boxed in reusable packaging; a ribbon that serves as a box handle can later be used as a bracelet, and families can use the packaging to construct their own Kindness Board - a space to

share kindness goals through drawings, photos, and more. The range launches with five characters: Brianna, Koral, Ivy, Nora, and Daisy (B.K.I.N.D.). The dolls encourage creativity through DIY play that reflect their passions for going green, saving the oceans, ending bullying, and more. Each B-Kind doll features a DIY craft activity, such as making an upcycled outfit for the doll and creating a set of BFF bracelets. The company’s trusted Smoby brand is a
one-stop shop for tots, with playhouses, ride- ons, outdoor toys, and more! New for 2022 is the Sweet Corner Playhouse, which looks like an ice cream parlour. Customers will be invited to place their orders at the window; then kids can pretend play while preparing and serving their treats. And there’s so much more to see, including the Garden Kitchen. Kids can host barbecue parties with this outdoor kitchen set-up. With a grill, fryer, and sink with a water pump, children will have all the tools and accessories required to pretend play at cooking up a treat.
Also going from strength to strength will be Jada Toys’ Hollywood Rides range, which celebrates the best in action film merchandising with scaled replicas of the most memorable wheels. With The Batman movie scheduled for release in March, fans can look forward to new 1:32 and 1:24 scale replicas for SS22. Plus, there is plenty of newness within the Fast & Furious collection! With a fleet of cars from the eight-film franchise already available to collect, fans will be keen to add 2022’s fresh additions to their collections, which include new RC 1:16 scale lines - Dom’s Dodge Charger and Brian’s Toyota – and the never-seen-before Light and Sound 1:18 scale die-cast cars with light-up headlights and engine sounds: Brian’s 1995 Toyota Sypra and Dom’s Lykan Hypersport. And the Jada Toys range will also see an all-new 1:24 scale DC Comics Bombshells collection, as well as more new additions from the world of Marvel, and more!
