Moose Toys Announces New ‘Despicable Me’ Toy Line

Despicable Me Moose Toys

Moose Toys, a leading product and marketing innovator in the toy industry, in collaboration with Universal Products & Experiences, is bringing the biggest global animated franchise in history, Illumination’s Despicable Me, to shelves today. The extensive and innovation-infused line of action figures, playsets and collectibles — as well as co-branded toys, including Moose’s Heroes of Goo Jit Zu — will range in price from $2.99 to $29.99. The toy line is available ahead of the theatrical release of Illumination’s Despicable Me 4 on July 3, 2024.

 

It’s a “Blast”– Moose Toys, in collaboration with Universal Products & Experiences, has delivered the Ultimate Fart Blaster ahead of the release of Illumination’s Despicable Me 4 on July 3, 2024. The 14-inch-long fart-making weapon of “gas” destruction shoots floating, scented fart rings that travel up to six feet. Two “fart formulas” produce the rings with either the good smell of banana, or the bad smell of, well, farts. Each bottle of fart formula produces up to 5,000 fart rings and blasts.

To keep the fun going, each bottle of fart formula produces up to 5,000 fart rings and blasts. MSRP: $29.99

 

Despicable Me 4 Mini Fart Blaster

Despicable Me 4 Transformation Chamber

In with a Minion; out with a Mega-Minion with the Transformation Chamber playset. For the first time ever, a Minion has been reimagined in a mega form, and in the playset, it’s fan favorite Jerry taking the honor. To get to the “Mega” reveal, first load a AVL agent version of Jerry and his accessory rock into the chamber’s hatch. Turn the levers just like Mr. Ramsbottom and hear Jerry being transformed within. The chamber doors open to reveal a five-and-a-half-inch mega Jerry figure with a rock textured body within the inner AVL playset. Level up the play by inserting discs in Jerry’s mouth that he’ll spit at a variety of targets located throughout the playset; hit the yellow target to release agent Jerry and his rock and head over to the playset’s slide to keep the fun going. Additional Mega Minion action figures can be purchased separately to continue the playset fun. MSRP: $29.99

Despicable Me 4 Mega Minions Action Figures

Minions go Mega with four-inch versions of fan favorites, Dave, Tim, Gus and Mel. The Mega Minions are ready for action as each includes an accessory that allows them to exercise their power, just like in the movie. Mega Dave comes with an attachable smoke cloud that propels him forward when released. Mega Mel comes armed with a projectile that is pushed into his one eye that he aims at a trash can; a direct hit reveals a badger hiding inside. Mega Tim has tornado arms to smash and break through the included barrier, or anything in his way, and Mega Gus launches from his display stand. These oversized Minions are sure to deliver mega fun and laughs. MSRP: $9.99

Despicable Me 4 Stretchy Figures

Despicable Me Minions Dave and Tim have joined the licensed line of Heroes of Goo Jit Zu figures, and they are ooey and goo-ier than ever. These two fan favorites ooze with bendy, squishy, fun, and while they’re already in their Mega Minion form, they go even more mega by stretching up to three times in size — always coming back to their original shape and size. Muscle bound Mega Dave is filled with squishy water beads. Appropriately, Mega Tim, with his capsule-shape elongated body, has a glucose gel. The duo are stand-out stars in the highly anticipated Despicable Me 4 movie in the popular franchise. Fans will be amazed by how these new Heroes of Goo Jit Zu Mega Minions “stretch” their star power into everyday play. MSRP: $13.99
