The DeAPlaneta Entertainment team will be present at Spielwarenmesse, the leading trade fair for the toy industry, which will be held from January 27 to 31 in Nuremberg. At this key meeting point, which celebrates its 75th anniversary in 2026, the company will present its main new releases for this year, including the new production Karters and new content and the third season of the MILO franchise.
KARTERS
Every girl is an adventurer. This powerful concept inspires Karters, the animated series co-produced by DeAPlaneta Entertainment and Mediawan Kids & Family, which will premiere in fall 2026. Set in the kingdom of Unicornia, Karters introduces audiences to three girls and one boy who drive their incredible karts. They engage in thrilling battles and embark on incredible adventures that demonstrate the importance of friendship, girl power, and the value of never giving up. TOMY International has joined the project to develop its master toy line.
MILO
The first two seasons of MILO have made the series a benchmark in preschool animation. Together with his friends Lofty and Lark, Milo explores the wide variety of jobs that exist in the world, conveying to the series’ millions of fans the message that all jobs are AMAZING. After its premiere in the United Kingdom in 2021, MILO expanded worldwide, airing in more than 170 countries on four continents.
In the fall of 2024, it debuted in the United States on the public broadcaster PBS Kids, and its third season will premiere in 2027. Following DeAPlaneta Entertainment’s recent acquisition of full ownership of the brand, it has expanded with the launch of its first short-format series, MILO’s Creations, MILO’s Bookreads, and Milosodes, and a new version of the MILO’s World app.
UNDERDOG
DeAPlaneta Entertainment is once again teaming up with SUPERPROD GROUP to bring a new hero to the screen: Underdog, a fearless dog who, together with other dogs with superpowers, will protect the inhabitants of the metropolis Capitol City. Underdog is a reboot of one of the classics of American animation, created in the 1960s and distributed worldwide.
MAGIC LILLY
Co-produced by DeAPlaneta Entertainment, the highly anticipated animated series Magic Lilly is the sequel to the publishing phenomenon Magic Lilly, which has sold over 28 million copies worldwide. After years of magical training, Lilly embarks on a dangerous mission to recover the lost pages of the Book of Spells before they fall into the wrong hands, while trying to balance her life as a witch with that of a normal girl.
WONDERPALS
WonderPals is a new transmedia universe that takes viewers on a journey of discovery through emotions. Its characters are inspired by the idea that emotions never disappear, but rather travel and transform into little creatures on the imaginary planet Wabii-Sabii. Each Pal is unique and conveys an emotion to share. WonderPals is a narrative ecosystem that combines apps, digital content, and licensed products to create a “phygital” experience based on the universal values of emotion and empathy.
Antonella Ceraso, International Consumer Products Director of DeAPlaneta Entertainment, commented: “DeAPlaneta Entertainment’s presence at Spielwarenmesse highlights the evolution of our strategy: a 2026 portfolio built on our own co-productions and internationally-oriented brands, capable of connecting with different targets -from children to the Kidult segment- and generating solid opportunities for our partners in an increasingly cross-cutting market.”
In addition to its productions, DeAPlaneta Entertainment will also present to attendees at Spielwarenmesse the brands it represents as a licensing agent in territories such as Iberia, Italy, France, Germany and CEE, such as Unicorn Academy, Robocar Poli, Skibidi Toilet, Pocoyó, Care Bears, Smurfs, Sesame Street and The Jim Henson Company.
