Toy Fair is upon us once again, and it seems more than ever, there are fewer surprises, what with official reveals promised to various media outlets and leaked images popping up everywhere. So, this post is not truly 100% prediction or speculation — this is what I hope to see this weekend.
HASBRO
TRANSFORMERS – We know we’re going to see Titans Return all over the place. So, I want to see Powermaster Prime and Fortress Maximus on display, as well as Victorion. And then give me Headmasters galore – I want to see the new Hardhead and Brainstorm. I hope there’s a Nightbeat shown in some form. (EDIT: And Hasbro Pulse has just showed us artwork for some Headmasters. Toys will be seen tomorrow.)
And let’s get some Beast Wars love, okay? I’d love it if Masterpiece Optimus Primal was announced. I’d be okay with some more BW Generations figures, too.
STAR WARS – Well, no Rogue One, we know that. So give me more TBS TFA characters. Give me a Rey with Speeder. Give me a 6″ Maz to complement the 3.75″ character. Give me Luke and Leia. Give me Kanji Klub. Give me a Rey/Finn pack with Roamer-6 breath masks and Falcon parts.
MARVEL – We’re getting 6″ 90’s Rogue in Marvel Legends, as well as Spider-Gwen. That’s my wish list right there.
But let’s throw in Silk, some Dr. Strange stuff, and some Netflix people like Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, and Kilgrave.
And now that 12″ Marvel Legends have been announced, let’s hope for more than just Captain America and Iron Man.
PLAYSKOOL – For Transformers, I’d like to see some non-Rescue Bots designs. Let’s throw in RiD and G1 (and BW if we’re pipe-dreaming). For Star Wars, I’d love Kylo Ren and Shuttle, Rey and Speeder, and a troop builder pack of First Order Storm-, Flame-, Snowtroopers and TIE Pilots.
MATTEL
DC – How about some 3.75″ figures from the DC TV Universe, like all of ARROW and FLASH? I’d love toys of Oliver, Black Canary, Merlyn, and Nyssa with some Flash, Reverse Flash, Firestorm, Captain Cold and Heatwave.
FUNKO
My God, what don’t I want to see? I love everything they do. For Pop figures, I want to see more Arrow and Flash. I want to see more Star Wars (if they could tap into the Legends Expanded Universe, say, Mara Jade and Thrawn). More Transformers.
I’d love to see a Knight Rider Pop! Ride. Think about it — Michael Knight with KITT and… okay, it’s not canon, but Garth Knight with KARR. (Hey, it would be an easy mold reuse; keep those costs down!). Note: These will not happen.
Rumor is we’ll see new 3.75″ figures. Bring them on.
KOTOBUKIYA
I always love looking at their Star Wars and Marvel figures. Let’s see some Force Awakens items.
MISCELLANEOUS
If anyone — anyone — makes “Quantum Leap” toys? I will buy every damn QL toy they make. Note: These also will not happen. Damn it.
The show starts tomorrow! Be sure
