Roy Greenwood, director at Kidicraft, commented: “We are absolutely thrilled to have this worldwide licence agreement with Hornby for these iconic brands. The images from the Hornby product archives are amazing and we cannot wait to have the products available domestically in Q3 this year. A presentation will be available from Tuesday next week, for buyers to find out more about the collection. Kidicraft will continue to expand its ranges and designs in August; we already have more than 50 new product ideas planned.”

Kidicraft is looking forward to a bumper new year, with an expanding team and a raft of new product on the back of all the new licensing agreements.

New lines for 2022 include Star Wars, Marvel and Discovery (Space and Monuments).

“It’s a huge start to the year, and with the new Hornby agreement, it’s only going to get bigger,” said Roy. “It’s projected that our growth for 2022 is going to be 100% up on last year, which was up 51% on the 2020 figure.”

The company looks forward to sharing its new designs at Toy Fair (Stand B19) and Spring Fair (Hall 5, Stand G14-H15).
