“We have been teasing the reveal of our 2nd figure this week on a variety of platforms. Standing over 2″ tall Goliath will be one of our largest figures, visit http://www.mystwarriors.com for the Full Reveal Thursday night!!”
It’s the largest Transformer EVER! Say hello to Metroplex, who comes in at over 2 feet tall! Get all the details straight from the Hasbro showroom at the 2013 New York Toy Fair!
While it’s admittedly pretty cool to see both a new cartoon series and toy line based off of this classic video game character, there is one specific figure in this line that has really caught my attention. The Gooage Spewing Gigantic Pac! That’s actually what it’s called. Here’s the description:
Gross goo & ghost eyeballs spewing action just like on the show! Drop the goo in, press down on Pac’s head and check out the goo spewing action! With Gooage Spewing Gigantic Pac-Man the “grossly” adventures never end.
“Spewing action just like in the show?!?!?!” What kind of cartoon is this?
Lot’s of news pre-Toy Fair! I’m sure you all have seen this by now, since we’re all frothing at the mouth for new toy news. Nonetheless, here’s some cool news bits.
– Mattel Leaks! By now, I’m sure you all know this. Looks like photos of the MOTU Classics, Watchmen, and DC Universe reveals have snuck out early! You can check them all out here. All I have to say right now is YAY ICER! Looking forward to getting a better look on Sunday.
Stay tuned! There will be much more news over the coming weekend. I’m in New York now, and will be filming starting tomorrow. I’ll get video footage online as time permits, but in the meantime be sure to stay tuned to ToyNewsI.com for up-to-the-minute updates!
Coverage of the 2013 New York International Toy Fair begins this Saturday, February 9th! Be sure to stay tuned right here to Pixel-Dan.com for video coverage of the event! Interviews and footage of the many different toy company displays and new toy reveales will be coming at you all through the next week!
Pixel-Dan.com is also partnering up with ToyNewsI.com this year for the 2012 Toy Awards, which include among other things the award for “Toy Of The Year” and “Toy Company Of The Year.”
And of course, I’ll be working alongside He-Man.org for the latest on Masters of the Unvierse!
So be sure to stay tuned to the following for the most comprehensive coverage of Toy Fair:
Recently on Facebook, Cornboy of Four Horsemen Design posted that they had just finished the initial sculpt of the Castle Grayskull playset for the Masters of the Universe Classics toy line, and was hoping Mattel would be able to show it off at Toy Fair. Well, it looks like Mattel will indeed be making the big reveal, and to tease us they have been posting very small, close-up shots of the Castle.
If you’re like me, then one of the characters you no doubt are excited to see get the 6″ treatment in the new Star Wars Black Series is the infamous bounty hunter known as Boba Fett.
Now hold on…before you get too upset, the folks at Rebelscum do make a very good point. The past few years, many of Hasbro’s SDCC exclusives have been offered later at retail. This has been the case for some of their Transformers and Marvel Legends exclusives in recent years, and even last year’s Star Wars exclusive. So I think it’s safe to say that a regular 6″ Boba Fett will be released at retail after SDCC. The SDCC version will most likely be a repaint, have special packaging, include an extra accessory, or any combination of those things.
All of this is nothing more than rumor and speculation right now. We should know more details this weekend at Toy Fair.
So what say you? Worried about this rumor? Feel it’s nothing to fear? Let’s hear it!
