Just Play is extending its relationship with Hasbro.

Following the recent news that Just Play cooked up a deal to take over production of the Easy-Bake brand, the company inked a licensing agreement with Hasbro to create and market toys for the FurReal brand.

Jess Richardson, the Vice President of Global Toys & Games, Licensed Consumer Products at Hasbro expressed enthusiasm about the agreement.

“We’re excited to work with Just Play on another one of our beloved brands because of the confidence we have in the imaginative toy lines and rich experiences they’ve been able to create in this industry,” Richardson says. “We know they’ll do the same for FurReal with products that inspire new experiences for kids and their plush pets.”

The brand has sold more than 100 million pets with authentic animatronic features in more than 75 countries.
