Cabin Launches Year-Long Celebration of the Brand’s 100^th Anniversary!

Hatfield, Pa. (January, 2016) – K’NEX, the US construction toy company focused on Building Worlds Kids Love^®, will be introducing its 2016 product line to retailers and media during American International Toy Fair^®, being held February 13^th through the 16^th in New York City at the Javits Center.

K’NEX, who licenses the Lincoln Logs brand from Hasbro, is excited to celebrate the 100^th birthday of Lincoln Logs in 2016! In 2015, in anticipation of the centennial, production of the iconic log building toy was brought back to the United States for the first time in nearly 60 years!

Constructed by a group of K’NEX designers and engineers, the life-size Lincoln Logs cabin stands over 7 feet tall, and is made up of more than 6000 logs. Located in the Crystal Palace on the third level of the Javits Center, Toy Fair attendees are welcome to visit the cabin, take their picture with it, and then enter a contest for a chance to win one of four Lincoln Logs Collector’s Edition Village Building Sets.

Retailers who are interested in adding Lincoln Logs products to their store shelves are invited to visit the K’NEX Booth, #4846, to take advantage of show specials and place their orders.

The remainder of the 2016 K’NEX product line is equally exciting, and features 25 inspiring new additions to its popular product lines, including 6 new interactive additions to the wildly popular STEAM themed building sets line, Mighty Makers^®. 2016 also brings motorized, multi-shot, blasting action to the K-FORCE Build and Blast™ line.

Products will be on display in the K’NEX Booth (#4846) throughout the duration of New York Toy Fair.
