Tinkle, a popular comic brand published by Amar Chitra Katha (ACK Media), has launched a new retail line of merchandise to mark its 37th anniversary. Founded in 1980, Tinkle has been one of the favourites of a couple of generations that grew up with the magazine.
Making the anniversary memorable for generations that have grown reading the comics and solving the puzzles, ACK Media has launched the merchandise in association with Planet Superheros and Eco Corner.
The merchandise features some of Tinkle’s iconic comic characters Suppandi, Shikari Shambu, Tantri the Mantri and others in fancy tote bags, colourful t-shirts, catchy mobile cases, cool sippers and more.
Speaking about the anniversary and expansion in Tinkle merchandise Shriya Ghate, Business Head, Tinkle, said, “We are extremely thankful to all our readers for supporting us for over three decades. Most importantly, we’d like to thank parents for inculcating a good habit of reading and making learning an enriching experience filled with fun. As a brand, Tinkle has been lucky to have a diverse audience of not only children but also the youth and those young at heart. Merchandise helps a brand get closer to its consumer and establish a stronger connect. The new Tinkle merchandise is sure to create a nostalgic moment for all our fans, with something in-store for everyone.”
