Mattel Cuts Licensing Deal With Hanna-Barbera: Mattel cut a deal with Hanna-Barbera that will land Yogi Bear, Fred Flintstone, Scooby Doo and the Jetsons in its character cache. El Segundo-based Mattel, whose success with Disney-themed products has augmented its booming Barbie and Hot Wheels business recently, said it will introduce dolls and plush toys next year based on popular characters such as Yogi and his sidekicks Boo Boo and Cindy. “It’s a full range of products,” Mattel spokeswoman Donna Gibbs said in a telephone interview. “There will also be Top Cat, Quick Draw McGraw and others.” Gibbs wouldn’t reveal financial details of the Hanna-Barbera deal.
