Dicke Katze and Friends is the creation of German artist Olivia Vieweg, and the name “Dicke Katze” translates roughly from German into “Fat Cats.” Vieweg created the brand as a celebration of why people love cats, wrote books, and created the plush toys. 830 Studios licensed the brand and launched a dedicated website which has 200,000 followers around the world. The plushies (pictured here) are currently available with select retailers.
“We are excited about partnering with 830 Studios and reaching the growing fan-base of Dicke Katze and Friends,” says Dean Irwin, President of Enterplay, LLC. “This is a great brand that fits perfectly within our portfolio of entertainment properties.”
Enterplay manufactures a variety of collectible licensed merchandise, including trading cards, CCGs, dog tags, plushies and more. Their current hits include My Little Pony trading cards and the My Little Pony collectible card game (see “'MLP CCG' Expansion Set Info, Dates”).
