Mattel, the toy giant, has released a non-fungible token (NFT) marketplace where users can buy digital collectibles of the company’s most iconic brands. Coupled with the release is the launch of their new Hot Wheels NFT collection. Let’s dive into the details of the marketplace and their upcoming NFT launch.
Mattel Creations: The digital collectibles marketplace
On November 21, the California-based company announced the release of the NFT marketplace on Mattel Creations, built on the Flow blockchain. According to Mattel, the direct-to-consumer platform will not require users to use cryptocurrency to buy the NFTs. In addition, by 2023, Mattel will integrate a “peer-to-peer trading platform” to allow users to trade their digital collectibles freely.
“In launching our own marketplace, we’re able to translate iconic Mattel IP into digital art … This is the latest evolution of our digital endeavors, and we look forward to sharing more drops soon inspired by some of the world’s favorite Mattel brands,” said Ron Friedman, Vice President at Mattel Future Lab.
