SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 8,
2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, Gymboree introduces its exclusive
Dinotrux collection, inspired by the launch of DreamWorks
Animation's Netflix original series. The all-new series follows the
epic adventures of half dinosaur and half construction vehicle
creatures including Ty Rux, a
massive Tyrannosaurus Trux, and his best friend Revvit, a tiny
razor-smart Reptool. Gymboree helps bring this story of prehistoric
proportion to life through quality, coordinated styles that
celebrate everyone's favorite Dinotrux characters. The limited
edition clothing and accessory collection is now available in
stores and online at gymboree.com/dinotrux.
"We are thrilled to be DreamWorks' exclusive apparel partner,
helping to launch a complete Dinotrux experience for families,"
said Betsy Schumacher, General
Manager of Gymboree. "At Gymboree, we love to tell stories through
our collections, so it was an exciting opportunity for us to take
inspiration from Ty and Revvit's adventures and create a line of
the quality, play-tested styles that we are known for."
Ann Buckingham, DreamWorks
Animation's Global Head of Product Development adds, "We couldn't
think of a better home for the first Dinotrux collection than
Gymboree. The line is a perfect match for this playful,
action-packed show, with Gymboree's styles sure to keep young fans
outfitted for their own daily adventures."
To celebrate the collection launch, Gymboree will be hosting
special shopping events at 25 select stores in the U.S. and
Canada. On September 12, 2015,
from 10 a.m. – 1 p.m., fans can shop the collection, watch
Dinotrux on Gymboree TVs, and be one of the first to play with
Power Revvit, one of the fun and lovable toys from Mattel's
Dinotrux line. Plus, kids can bring their favorite Dinotrux
characters to life in 3D, using the DreamWorks COLOR app and
Gymboree's custom coloring sheets. To learn more and RSVP, visit
gymboree.com/dinotrux.
The Dinotrux–inspired line, available at all Gymboree stores and
online in sizes 4–12, includes a range of coordinated looks
focusing on the key characters in the series: Ty and Revvit. The
styles are geared for play and include screen-printed tees,
embroidered jeans, embellished hats, sneakers and backpacks.
DreamWorks also created a Dinotrux coloring and activity set, plus
four pop-up books, available exclusively at Gymboree.
