Trolls Music Stars are interactive plush charms inspired by DreamWorks Animation's Trolls franchise and kid's tech startup Thinker-Tinker helps to bring them to life with a companion app. Through the mobile app, kids can create, remix and play music, including favorite songs from the Trolls franchise. The app also gives kids the chance to unlock different characters, engage in dance battle challenges, customize their avatar and collect special in-game items.
Kids can look forward to seeing the interactive plush charms on Kickstarter later this month, along with exclusive pre-order items and bundles.
Since launched by DreamWorks in 2016, Trolls has captured the hearts of many through films, TV series, the Trolls World Tour and even an Oscar nomination for Best Original Song.
