Ahead of New York Toy Fair, Disney Consumer Products unveiled the innovative toy line from TOMY inspired by Disney Junior’s intergalactic adventure series “Miles from Tomorrowland” which launched last Friday and reached 2.0 million unique Total Viewers and 697,000 Kids 2-5, and ranked as the week’s #3 cable TV series among Kids age 2-8. It’s also #1 on the WATCH Disney Junior app, amassing nearly 17 million video views since December.

“Since the debut of Disney Junior, we’ve continued to build a portfolio of unique and inspiring products that delight parents and their preschoolers,” said Josh Silverman, executive vice president of global licensing, Disney Consumer Products. “Space exploration is incredibly rich territory for innovation, and we’re excited to launch a product collection that will capture kids’ imaginations and help bring STEAM themes to life at home.”

“Miles from Tomorrowland” introduces young adventurer Miles Callisto and his family as they help connect the galaxy on behalf of the Tomorrowland Transit Authority. The “Miles from Tomorrowland”-inspired TOMY toy line launches at retail this summer and includes vehicles, figures, and playsets, as well as science facts for kids age 2-7 from NASA and NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), the Space Tourism Society and Google experts.

Disneystore.com began rolling out the “Miles from Tomorrowland” product collection on February 6, day-in-date with the animated series premiere, with product setting in Disney Store locations nationwide starting February 13. The robust line focuses on outer space exploration, curiosity and adventure and includes toys, books, role play, apparel home décor, accessories and more. Extending the story through a digital experience, the new “Miles from Tomorrowland: Missions” app from Disney Publishing Worldwide also celebrated its launch on premiere day.
