Sakar International announced at the 2010 Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas that the company will offer more products for Iron Man 2:
"Sakar International is getting ready for a complete line of branded "Iron Man 2" spy gear inspired by the famous Tony Stark, portrayed by no other than Robert Downey Jr. The products are being developed under a license agreement with Marvel Entertainment, following Sakar's earlier Marvel licenses for "Iron Man," "Hulk" and "The Amazing Spider Man."
"The line is expected to include over a dozen SKUs ranging from spy watches, walkie talkie/voice changers and digital and video cameras to nightvision goggles, blacklight decoders, micro-listening devices and video game accessories.
"The 'Iron Man' franchise lends itself to branded youth electronics because of the story line and gadgets like electromagnets and power suits that appear in the various Iron Man properties," said Paul Gitter, President of Consumer Products for North America, Marvel Entertainment. "Sakar's line of spy gear will fit right in and provide good play value for any child who is an Iron Man fan."
"'Iron Man 2' is among the most sought-after licenses in the market today, and it's rich in opportunities for product development," said Liza Abrams, Sakar Vice President of Licensing. "It's a tribute to Marvel Entertainment's care and feeding of the franchise, and it will result in one of our strongest lineups of branded merchandise to date."
Sakar's "Iron Man 2" license is the latest addition to a rapidly expanding licensing program. The company also holds licenses for well-known brands including Kodak, Made for iPod, Crayola, LeapFrog, Sanrio's Hello Kitty, The Weather Channel, and Nickelodeon properties such as iCarly and SpongeBob SquarePants.
