“Fans always wonder which properties may come to life in Lego form, and this year we are thrilled to bring all of the mystery, humor and hijinks of the Scooby-Doo universe to life in Lego toys and animated content,” Lego Group vp licensing and entertainment Jill Wilfert said in a statement about the deal. “We constantly review properties to find those with global reach, great characters and stories and inherent building and role play opportunities. And we think that Scooby-Doo delivers on all of these while also driving strong appeal among collectors and today’s parents, who have strong nostalgia for the Lego brand from their own childhoods.”
