Playmates Toys
Established in 1966, Playmates Toys started by primarily supplying dolls to the US and European markets. By the 1970s we had established ourselves as a global toymaker. Then, in the 1980s, we decided to help fund episodes of the new cartoon series for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and released a best-selling toy line around that brand.
