“We’re very excited to partner with PBR on one of our first sports products,” says Frank Adler, chief revenue officer, Cubles. “PBR is a growing, family-oriented sport that’s a great match for our fun toys designed to bring a hands-on building experience to sports fans — including the young bull riding fans out there.”

Each bull and rider PBR Cubles is constructed with 30 pieces, is articulated to create a bucking action. A western arena-style diorama is included with each set and helps set the scene.
