It looks like Rovio's milking the Angry Birds franchise for all it's got. The company is collaborating with toy-maker Hasbro for its upcoming kart-racing game Angry Birds Go. As part of the collaboration, hasbro will be making and selling toys based on Go. These toys will be Jenga and Telepods tie-ins. Rumours point to Angry Birds Go having a release date of October 31. However, Rovio hasn't confirmed anything yet.
Hasbro will be making five Telepods products and four Jenga games. The company has revealed the approximate pricing and release date for all of these products. They are, the Pig Rock Raceway Telepods set, the Telepods Deluxe Multi-Pack, the Telepods Dual Launcher set, the Telepods Multi-Pack, the Telepods Kart Pack, the Pirate Pig Attack Jenga game, the Trophy Cup Challenge Jenga game, the Tower Knockdown Jenga game and the Rowdy Racers Jenga game. All of these are expected to hit stores in Fall 2013.

Telepods will be compatible with Angry Birds Go in a Skylander-esque fashion, where players can keep these figures on a specific stand to get extra in-game content. The Jenga games will also feature codes that give extra in-game content.
Just recently, Rovio released its latest bird-and-pig offering—Angry birds star wars 2—on iOS and Android devices. The game introduces characters from the prequel trilogy, with the main mascot this time around being Darth Maul of The Phantom Menace and double-bladed Lightsaber fame. Along with this, there are also other characters making a comeback, such as the ever-popular villain Darth Vader and the robotic Sith warrior General Grievous. The light side of the Force has characters such as Yoda, pod-racing Anakin and Mace Windu, among others.
The game costs Rs 55 on iOS and is free but ad-supported on Android
