STARBRIGHT Starbright Licensing launches Britto and My Hero Academia in Italy and celebrates DRAGON BALL’s 30th anniversary Among the new launches at BLTF2019, Starbright is presenting, for the European market, the licensing and merchandising rights for artworks created by the famous artist Romero Britto. Born in Brazil and raised in Miami, Britto is an international artist who uses colourful patterns to communicate his optimistic vision of the world. His works are exhibited in galleries in over 100 countries and, thanks to his versatility, he already has several international collaborations to his name, including, to name only a few, Absolut Vodka, Campari, Pepsi, IBM, Audi, Bentley, CocaCola, Evian, Disney, Mattel and Chiquita. Another new entry in Starbright’s portfolio this year is My Hero Academia, the animated Japanese series, based on a famous manga, made up of more than 63 episodes divided into three seasons. Already a phenomenon in Japan, this will soon be launched in Europe and the USA, where there are already many fan communities. The agency is also celebrating the 30th Anniversary of Dragon Ball, with an event dedicated to the brand in which new plans for 2020-21 will be presented alongside Toei Animation and the main partners.

DeA PLANETA BOOKS DeA Planeta Books presents the DummySaurus The DummySaurus is a funky community of (slightly dumb!) dinosaurs: Ditzy, Dinus, Diva, Cassandra, Codone and many other weird characters. All of them are vegetarians (but they can’t resist beetlechips…) and they only have one thing in mind: having loads of fun, possibly with a groovy soundtrack playing along! These funny DummySaurus are true stars of a great comedy series and also the main characters in a book series developed by DeA Planeta Publishing. DummySaurus is an original brand created by Dami Just For Kids.
