Disney to release new line of wearable electronic toys

By Leah Zanolla | Published June 4, 2015

Disney and Hasbro are working together on a new line of electronic wearable toys called Playmation. Due out in October, the first costumes pieces available will be Iron Man’s gloves and Hulk’s fists. Star Wars sets will be available in 2016 and Frozen sets are planned for 2017.

All of the toys will interact with the rest of the line and include the ability to download missions, or narrated stories. The goal of the toys are to get kids more active and off the couch.

A starter kit will cost $150; accessories will start at $15.

Leah grew up in a little farming town in Illinois, right on the Mississippi River. Her Chicago-born husband, David, left the city for her, and they're now raising their three children (Jacob, Jonah and Lydia) just 12 miles from her hometown. As the Senior Editor of the DIS (wdwinfo.com), Leah spends a lot of time writing about, reading about, and discussing Disney. So, it should come as no surprise that one of her family's favorite ways to spend time is going to Walt Disney World and traveling on Disney Cruise Line. She also enjoys shopping, watching movies with her husband and doing crafts with and for her kids.
