Licensing & Merchandising

Great brands deserve great products.

GREAT CHARACTERS. GREAT PRODUCTS.

AXL’S GAME LAB is being built as an original entertainment world with distinctive characters, stories, adventures and an expanding universe of possibilities.

We are open to working with exceptional licensing and merchandising partners who can help bring AGL into the real world through products and experiences audiences will genuinely want to own, use, collect and enjoy.

If the AXL’S GAME LAB name is on something, we want it to deserve to be there.

Quality Over Quantity We would rather create fewer exceptional products than a large catalogue of products that don’t meet our standards.
More Than a Logo A licence is a partnership, not a logo placement. Our products should feel as though they belong naturally within the AGL world.
Brand Integrity We protect our characters, stories and audience relationships. Quality control is part of the partnership from the very beginning.
Built for the Long Term We want licensing relationships that can grow with AGL – beginning with one great product and expanding together over time.
Where the Opportunities Could Be

These are possibilities, not a checklist. The right product matters more than filling every category.

Collectibles & Toys

Premium character collectibles, figures, play-sets, models and other products that bring AXL, Rusty (plus future characters) and the AGL world into physical form.

Games & Interactive Products

Physical and digital games, puzzles, construction experiences and other products built around exploration, problem-solving, creativity and play.

STEM, Discovery & Creative Products

Experiment kits, exploration equipment, build kits, creative sets and products that encourage people to investigate, make, test and discover.

Publishing

Books, guides, activity titles, reference material, graphic storytelling and other publishing opportunities that extend the adventures and ideas behind AGL.

Apparel & Accessories

Carefully designed clothing, bags, accessories and lifestyle products that people genuinely want to wear and use.

Home, School & Everyday Products

Selected practical products where the AGL identity can add something distinctive, useful or fun.

Brand Integrity at Every Stage

Every licensed AGL product must feel authentically AGL – in its concept, design, quality, presentation and the way it is marketed.

We work closely with partners throughout development, including appropriate review and approval of concepts, character representation, design, materials, packaging, messaging and final production.

Made for the Right Reasons

Our products should create value – deepening connections, encouraging curiosity and turning discovery into real-world experiences.

A great collectible can deepen a connection with a favourite character.
A brilliant experiment kit can turn an episode discovery into a hands-on experience.
A beautifully designed book can inspire someone to learn more.
A great game can turn AGL’s spirit of adventure, problem-solving and creativity into something people experience for themselves.

The best merchandise extends the relationship with the brand rather than simply monetizing it.

The Right Partners

We’re looking for partners who understand that protecting quality protects everyone involved.

Proven Quality

A strong track record of designing and producing excellent products.

Category Expertise

Deep knowledge of their product category, customers and market.

Manufacturing Standards

Reliable production, quality assurance, safety and compliance.

Design Capability

The ability to translate AGL into products that feel original rather than generic.

Distribution & Market Reach

The ability to put the right products in front of the right audiences in appropriate markets.

Respect for the Brand

A willingness to work collaboratively within AGL’s creative and quality standards.

Selective by Design

We don’t intend to license AGL into every available category or work with the largest possible number of licensees.

That selectivity benefits AGL, our audience and our licensing partners.

Interested in Working with AGL?

If you represent a manufacturer, publisher, developer, retailer, licensing organisation or other business with an idea for an exceptional AXL’S GAME LAB product or experience, we’d be pleased to hear from you.

Tell us about your company, your experience, your proposed category or idea, the markets you operate in and what you believe you could bring to AGL.

We aren’t looking for the greatest number of products or partners. We’re looking for the right ones.
