Toonz Media Group is set to make waves at AFM 2024 with the launch of its exciting new animated feature MINIBOTS. This action-packed, family-friendly adventure promises to resonate with a broad audience, delivering high-energy entertainment and emotional depth.
Produced alongside Evolutionary Films and Mojo Global Arts, MINIBOTS combines thrilling high-tech adventure with humor and heart. Directed by Tony Bancroft (Mulan) and written by Michael Ferris (Terminator 3: Rise of Machines), the film follows three young geniuses at a summer Robotics camp. Their creation of sentient mini robots leads to chaos and heartwarming moments as they race against time to protect their playful but troublemaking Minibots from a powerful tech company determined to take control of these remarkable inventions.
They’ll drive you crazy… make you laugh… make you cry… they never slow down. But at the end of the day, they will steal your heart.
MINIBOTS stands out as a fresh and dynamic addition to Toonz Media Group’s expanding portfolio of high-quality family content. The film showcases not only stunning animation but also relatable themes of friendship, creativity, and resilience. This project is set to make its mark as one of the standout animated features for the global market.

The teens in the movie are relevant today, navigating new friendships while balancing technology and coming into their own. As a parent I know my kids will love this film but, just as important, I love it as well.”
