TORONTO, Feb. 24, 2020 /PRNewswire/ - Spin Master Corp.
(TSX: TOY; www.spinmaster.com), a leading global children's
entertainment company, reveals H5 Domino Creations™, a new
line of dominoes designed for toppling, created in collaboration
with YouTube sensation Lily Hevesh.
The reveal was marked by a spectacular live domino topple at The
North American International Toy Fair in New York City.
The H5 Domino Creations line was designed and
precision-crafted by 21-year old Domino Artist Lily Hevesh, who
goes by Hevesh5 on YouTube where her channels have over 900 million
views and nearly 2.7 million subscribers. With meticulous attention
paid to weights, dimensions, edge precision, and accessories, H5
Domino Creations delivers the ultimate building and toppling
experience.
Showcasing Spin Master's unstoppable innovation and Lily's
exceptional talent, the occasion was marked with a jaw-dropping
50-foot-wide and 6-foot-deep domino topple. Designed by Lily, the
project used over 12,000 dominoes, and was built over the course of
two days by Lily and her team.
An iconic Bakugan™ ball, from Spin Master's
anime-adventure series and toy battling franchise, tipped off the
project triggering multiple tricks: a marble turned on a power
strip which activated a turntable showcasing the Spin Master and
Hevesh5 logos, 3D domino structures toppled 'H5 Domino Creations!'
and three signs flipped up revealing 'Design, Build, Topple!' to
celebrate the brand's name and tagline. The epic falldown also
included various Spin Master toys and New
York City iconography, marking the unveiling at the North
American International Toy Fair.
"New York Toy Fair was the perfect opportunity to showcase
Lily's incredible talent and celebrate the launch of H5 Domino
Creations," says Elizabeth
LoVecchio, VP of Spin Master Games. "Crafted by Lily, a true
talent and expert, we can't wait to get these into everyone's hands
this fall. They deliver the ultimate design, build, and toppling
experience for budding artists to explore their creativity, as well
as experienced builders to perfect their domino art."
"It is an absolute dream to develop H5 Domino Creations
in collaboration with Spin Master," says Lily Hevesh. "I have envisioned the 'ideal'
domino for quite a long time - it's a product that has the perfect
surface texture engineered specifically for toppling, with vivid
colors, 100% flat faces, proper weight and size, and the most
precise square edges for stacking tall. After years of testing
various dominoes, and seeing how each contain design or
manufacturing imperfections that affect toppling performance
and aesthetics, I am thrilled to bring H5 Domino Creations
to the market."
H5 Domino Creations will be available in fall 2020
at major retailers for a suggested retail price of $24.99. Each set comes with 100 dominoes in four
colors (red, blue, yellow, and white), three accessories, and
tutorials and guides provided by Lily to feed creativity.
