Hunter has been in the toy industry for some 17 years and has been head of the RC2 international business for the past five years - during which time it has shown solid growth in both revenue and profit.

Tomy announced it was to acquire RC2 back in March.

Former Tomy Europe CEO Robert Mann has now left the company.
