Fans of Grimly Feendish-alike Gru will be pleased to hear that Thinkway will be releasing a line of toys to tie-in with the sequel to the 2010 smash-hit Despicable Me.
With a theatrical gross of over $500 million and selling over 13 million home video copies to date, Despicable Me is the 10th highest grossing animated movie in US history. It comes as no surprise then to learn that a sequel is in the works.
To coincide with the release - set for the Summer of 2013 - Thinkway Toys will be launching a line of action figures, plush toys and roleplay items based around Gru and his Minions.
''Our team is ecstatic to create an all new line of toys for Despicable Me 2,'' said Albert Chan, CEO of Thinkway Toys, ''The characters are endearing, filled with humor and adventure and we can't wait to include these elements into the toy line.''
