Fart Ninjas are having a blast this year with successful retail sell. Following an increase in retail partners, Funrise will be rolling out a new marketing plan to drive demand.

The ninjas retail for less than £10 and have a motion activated feature which makes fart noises as someone walks by. Fart Ninjas can be supplied in a 24-piece motion sensor FSDU that creates retail entertainment as customers walk past, creating humor and driving sales in store.

Series 6 is now available with eight characters to collect including Yu Squeaker, Yugatu Toot and Kung Foul. Series 7 will launch later this year in autumn/winter with eight new characters to collect including Stealthy Stencher, Sesei Sten Chi and Sour Silencer.

The StikBot Central YouTube channel has now been viewed over 487m times, with new content uploaded weekly to inspire and entertain fans of the action figure collectible launched in the UK in 2016.

The online content, coupled with the unique collectability of StikBot and its various incarnations, make this an action figure brand for a new generation. The new StikBot Monster additions will not disappoint as fans can use them to create unique new stop-frame animated movies. The new StikBot Monster Werewolf Pack includes a Werewolf, StikBot and a StikBot Monster, while the StikBot Monster Cyborg Pack features a Cyborg, a Mad Scientist and a Monster.

KlikBots are equally as popular. These figures allow children to create more intricate animations thanks to articulated limbs that click into place for more precise positioning. As well as adding more creative possibilities, KlikBots have also become a hugely popular fidget toy. A KlikBots Galaxy Pack featuring a KlikBots Hero, a KlikBots Villain and KlikBots Guardian is new for 2023. This great value set also includes over 25 accessories.

Zing, the creators of StikBot and KlikBots, has also developed a brand-new collectible; KliXX Creaturez. The initial range includes three different characters in two colourways: Spider, Cobra and Scorpion. Each has over 200 points of articulation, inviting children to ‘Click - Connect – Fidget – Animate!’ The characters can also be snapped and clicked together to make different Klixx Creaturez, meaning kids will want to collect them all.
