Our Licences

Every design in a Threadheads licensed collection is made under a signed agreement with the company that owns the property. That is what an official licence is: written permission to use the characters and marks, on terms set by the rights holder. What we do with it is our own artwork, printed on heavyweight combed cotton in sizes XS to 4XL. The licensors we hold agreements with are listed below.

Warner Bros

Our largest licence by volume. It covers Looney Tunes, Scooby-Doo, Tom and Jerry, the DC characters including Batman and Superman, Harry Potter, The Lord of the Rings, Game of Thrones, Seinfeld, Friends, Rick and Morty, Mortal Kombat and the horror classics, among other properties.

Sesame Workshop

Sesame Workshop is the non-profit organisation behind Sesame Street and licenses the characters directly. Our Sesame Street range, adult and kids sizes, is made under that agreement.

Sanrio

Sanrio licenses the Hello Kitty and Friends range to us. Our designs feature the Friends cast: Cinnamoroll, Pompompurin, Keroppi, Bad Badtz-Maru, Chococat, Pochacco and Tuxedosam. The agreement covers Australia, the United States, Europe and New Zealand.

Paramount

Paramount covers SpongeBob SquarePants, Garfield, MTV, Rugrats and Beavis and Butt-Head.

Mattel

Mattel licenses Masters of the Universe to us, covering the characters and marks of the He-Man universe.

Tezuka Productions

Tezuka Productions holds the rights to Astro Boy and licenses the character to us directly from Japan. The Astro Boy range is made under that agreement.

Bruce Lee Family Co

Bruce Lee Family Co licenses the Bruce Lee name, likeness and marks. Our Bruce Lee range is made under that agreement.

What this means when you buy

If a piece sits in a licensed collection at Threadheads, it is made under one of the agreements above, and the rights holder is party to it. The design itself is ours. The full range across every licence is in Licensed Collabs.
