Posted on by

YWow Brands, a toy company specialising in novelty puzzles and games, has landed a new partnership with Hasbro to develop an assortment of five collectable Mini Puzzles based on its popular Hasbro Gaming titles.

Monopoly, Monopoly Junior, Cluedo, Operation, and Trivial Pursuit all feature in the new range of Mini Puzzles, each designed to resemble a miniature version of the iconic games, enabling gaming fans across the world to experience their favourite titles in a new way.

YWow Brands has quickly become a recognisable name in the Mini and Supersized licensed puzzles arena,  and today boasts a range of global licensing partners across its portfolio. YWow products are currently being shipped to more than 40 markets around the world and are sold in various toy and department stores.

“Some Mini Puzzles are highly sought after in the puzzle market and are catching the attention of internet users due to their massive viral potential. YWOW is revolutionizing the puzzle industry, opening doors to endless possibilities by combining popular brands with puzzles, ‘puzzlizing’ any brand or product loved by all ages,” read a statement from the company.

YWow’s collaboration with Hasbro aims to ‘bring home the fun for all families and all children, globally’.

The 24-piece puzzles will be available in most major markets as unique collectibles starting this year.

YWOW Games is continuing its mission to ‘revolutionise the games and puzzles industry’ through a new partnership with Swizzels for a range of Swizzels puzzles. It’s part of the company’s ongoing plans to bring household brands to the collectable jigsaw puzzles market.

In a deal brokered by Blonde Sheep Licensing, YWOW has struck up its partnership with the firm recognised as one of the longest established manufacturers of confectionery in the UK, to bring a puzzle assortment featuring a range of some of Swizzels’ most iconic brands.

Love Hearts and Drumstick Squashies will both feature in the collection.

YWOW kicked off the innovative brand ‘Mini Puzzles’ with Kellogg’s and Pringles earlier this year, with distribution channels reaching most major markets. According to the firm, the two licensed puzzle lines are selling out in major retailers in the UK and outperforming their competitors in specialty stores and hypermarkets.

‘It is evident from the brand’s success in these markets that the current circumstances make puzzles even more of an evergreen category,’ said the firm.

YWOW Games has indicated that it is ‘only just getting started’ with its licensing programme and has promised to bring the range to all markets.

“YWOW are already seeing success with other iconic brands across puzzles and I have no doubt this success will continue with the Swizzels brands,” said Natasha Dyson, managing director, Blonde Sheep Licensing. “It has been a pleasure working with such an enthusiastic team.”

YWOW Games, an up and coming games and puzzles company on a mission to ‘revolutionise the market’ by combining global household brands with collectable jigsaw puzzles, has expanded its best-selling range through a new partnership with the confectionery brand, Perfetti Van Melle.

The fast-growing company launched onto the scene with its brand Mini Puzzles earlier this year when it introduced its Kellogg’s and Pringles range via distribution channels reaching most major markets. According to the firm, the two licensed puzzles lines are already selling out in major retailers in the UK.

Now, building on the momentum of the launch, YWOW Games have finalised a global licensing deal with Perfetti Van Melle for its iconic Mentos brand. Not only will the license occupy a solid space within the Mini Puzzles brand, but will also be one of the first licenses that make up the new SuperSized puzzles line.

SuperSized puzzles are 500 to 1000-piece vintage puzzles packaged in extra-large packaging resembling the brand’s own packaging.

“It is evident from the brand’s success in these markets that the current circumstances make puzzles even more of an evergreen category,” said the firm.

“It is safe to say YWOW Games are only just getting started with their license deals, and they promise to bring to all markets their iconic puzzles based on the A-brands for all categories.”
