Kid Robot should have an interesting 2008

UnBeige points to this WWD article about Kid Robot‘s collaboration with a firm called Schifter + Partners to bring “a handbag and small accessories collection” into some 200 department stores in the fall. (Previously: 1/20/08 Consumed about Yo Gabba Gabba notes Kid Robot’s involvement in that show and other projects of production company Wildbrain, which is a majority investor in Kid Robot. Also: Schifter + Partners produces Harajuku Lovers, covered in 6/19/05 Consumed.)
The WWD article suggets Kid Robot’s revenue for 2007 was around $24 million.
If I ran a magazine about the merger of creativity and entrepreneurism, I would put Kid Robot on the cover.
