Amidst rumors of Google working a “Kid’s Mode” for Android — and their quiet acquisition of Launchpad Toys — it seems Google has really taken a liking to kid-friendly products and services as of late. Another clue? Google and Mattel are now teaming up too announce a new product that will be unveiled in an event in New York on February 13th (just a day ahead of the NYC Toy Fair).
Okay, so maybe not entirely new. The tag line reads, “view what’s possible,” and with an image of one of those View-Master film reels in the invite (I used to have an awesome Michael Jackson’s Thriller one). Something tells us that, with Google’s new emphasis in VR and Google Cardboard being announced back at IO, this could be Mattel’s version of 3D VR that connects to your Android device.
We wont really know until this Friday, but if I’m right, I’ll be first in line to pick one of these up.
