Finding Dory & Moana to get Pillow Pets in 2016

Today, CJ Products revealed plans to release Finding Dory and Moana Pillow Pets in 2016. According to the press release, the products will coincide with the release of the movies. In June, Nemo and Dory will be released for Pixar’s Finding Dory and in November, Walt Disney Studios’ Moana will get a release of Pua, Princess Moana’s fun loving pig.

“Movie-going is such a popular childhood activity, we are happy to extend the joy movies provide into the realm of play,“ said Jennifer Telfer, CEO of Pillow Pets.  “Children are so excited after they see a movie that they cannot wait to engage with the characters in all areas of their lives. Pillow Pets products bring a touch of room décor along with the practicality of everyday use as both a toy for imaginative play and a pillow for television, bed or travel time.”

According to the press release, products for these lines will include the regular Pillow Pets Folding Plush, as well as Dream Lites. “Pillow Pet Dream Lites are the amazing night light that instantly turns your room into a starry sky with a press of a button.  Soothing lights create a magical and tranquil environment that helps kids ease into a restful sleep. A built in timer shuts the Dream Lite off after 20 minutes. All Dream Lites come with 4 light options, steady blue, amber, or green and all three colors that transition every 4 seconds in a continuous loop.  Pillow Pets Folding Plush is a dual-function plush toy by day and comfy pillow by night.”

Pillow Pets will be part of Toy Fair in a couple of weeks in NYC, and I will be there covering the exciting products for DisKingdom.com and PopVinyls.com. Be sure to stay tuned for more information as it becomes available.
