Cyber Group Studios, a French independent producer and distributor of animated television series’ and movies for kids and families, has appointed Medialink Animation International Limited, a subsidiary of Medialink Group Limited, as licensing agency for preschool animation IP Gigantosaurus.

This deal will strengthen the exposure of the Gigantosaurus IP and create new licensing opportunities in Southeast Asia (Taiwan, Thailand, Vietnam, Singapore, Philippines, Malaysia and Indonesia). With this collaboration, Medialink aims to further grow the merchandise, tie-in promotions, and events business for the brand.

“Gigantosaurus” is a multi-award-winning adventure-comedy series based on Jonny Duddle’s book published by Templar. The 52x11’ CGI series features four fiercely-fun dinosaur friends – Rocky, Bill, Mazu and Tiny – who take pre-schoolers on exciting, comedy-filled adventures as they dare to be themselves and explore the world beyond their nests.

The pre-school animation currently airs on Disney around the globe and is set to hit UK screens on free-to-air channel Tiny POP next year. The show is also confirmed to broadcast on free-to-air channels in other territories, such as France Télévisions, Germany’s Super RTL plus Italy’s Rai Yoyo. Content is also available on Disney’s YouTube channel and will come to Netflix.

“Gigantosaurus is the perfect pre-school brand for licensing. Both boys and girls love it very much. We are excited to work together with Cyber Group Studios. As a licensing agent, Medialink has the expertise and experience in building strong pre-school brands in Southeast Asia. We have made successful launches and events for international pre-school brands that are well supported by consumers and retailers alike. With our strong network in the market, we have the leverage to further develop Gigantosaurus in toys, home products, apparel, characters' meet and greet, and mall events. We look forward to bringing new and successful elements to Gigantosaurus," Noletta Chiu, Executive Director of Medialink Group Limited, said.
