Barbie-verse: Mattel inks multi-year deal with Cryptoys NFT marketplace
Mattel, a prominent toy brand, partnered with NFT marketplace Cryptoys to feature its brands such as Barbie and Hot Wheels as playable NFTs within a metaverse. Richard Dickson, the toy company’s president, believes that there are opportunities for the brand within the metaverse space. The toys will be featured on a Cryptoys metaverse created by OnChain Studios as well as in other games developed by the company.
