Jakks Pacific has entered into an agreement with Sony Pictures Consumer Products for its costume division, Disguise Inc, to produce costumes based on hit series, Cobra Kai.
Disguise will design, market, manufacture and distribute a full range of Cobra Kai costumes and accessories commencing in 2021. The highly acclaimed comedy series has 30 episodes available and an upcoming fourth season this December on Netflix.
The new costumes will be available in the US this year exclusively at Walmart, with an expansion of the line and retail partners planned for 2022.
Tara Hefter, president and gm of Disguise Inc, commented: “The rise of Cobra Kai has been so fun to watch, beginning with its Karate Kid roots, and Disguise is ecstatic to be working with Sony Pictures Consumer Products on a new global costume range to support the massively successful show.
“We anticipate that there will be many karate dojo couples and group costumes planned for Halloween 2021 and beyond, as the iconic Cobra Kai outfits are both fun and comfortable to wear, and will be sure to be a hit with fans of all ages.”
