I got plenty o' Muffin (MVK)     

stateside - 04 Sep 2005 11:57

The early bird caught this media posting fo the UK: Maverick Entertainment Group plc. (there is also a Maverick Inc in the States)

MVK looks like a halfpenny share across the pond.

Any ideas if the characters they have will create wealth?

Hot from ADVFN board today:

'Looks like Muffin is relaunched tomorrow on BBC2 CBeebies.

Also:
Future Kids launches Muffin the Mule Magazine on Thursday October 27th. Licensed from Peak Entertainment, the official magazine launches as the classic BBC children's character returns to TV screens, reborn in a new series of 26 episodes, each 10 minutes long, showing on both BBC One and the digital channel, CBeebies. As the BBC promotional machine gears up to boost Muffin's profile and celebrate his 60th anniversary in 2006, Muffin the Mule Magazine will be on sale every three weeks. The magazine takes a fun and educational approach to activities and puzzles that young children will enjoy with their parents, whilst continuing Muffin's adventures in a series of comic strips and stories. Aimed at 2-5 years olds, with a coverprice of 1.75, Muffin the Mule Magazine also marks Future's first entry into the pre-school market.

Editor Cavan Scott said:

"With Muffin the Mule once again set to be a TV favourite of a whole new generation of children we are delighted to be working with Peak Entertainment on this official title. Muffin was the first ever character created by the BBC and both the new TV show and magazine will follow in the BBC's tradition of quality, family entertainment. Through the adventures of Muffin children will be able to learn the importance of working together, a message that is as important today as it was 60 years ago.

"Alongside securing suitable licenses in Muffin and our existing Future Kids magazine, Jetix Magazine we have been investing in the creation of our own original characters and brands for younger people. ZAP! is the first example of Future letting these characters loose in an exciting magazine which enables us to capitalise on our longstanding relationships with the games industry. ZAP! is designed specifically for the growing numbers of pre-teen gamers and will only feature games suitable for this audience, making ZAP! an attractive purchase for parents and ideal for publishers launching games aimed at kids."

Stateside, with [MVK] being even cheaper...what good news can there be? This stock was quite valuable a few years ago(-just looked, it's falling down consistantly over 5 years from 3.5pence..is TV programming that difficult?)... then 2004, a cloud descended...but they still have some good titles, is this so...or are they running out of cash, hence sp.
-or- . . . . . . . Anyone else?
