FAIRly Satisfied (Toy Fair 2015)

Originally, I was going to title this post - More than FAIRly Satisfied because of the great leaks prior to the show that got me excited.

Even before Toy Fair 2015 started, a few companies leaked some images and blurbs on the upcoming year.

Right off the bat, Funko shared their 6 Inch Rocketeer and Firefly figures. Booyah!

Funko/Super7 showed some of their Classic Star Trek ReAction figures - Spock, Sulu, Bones, Uhuru.

Bif Bang Pow showed off their 1980s styled Flash Gordon 3-3/4" figues.

So I thought this was going to be an awesome Toy Fair. But it wasn't. More on that later.

Day 1 started well. Super7/Funko displayed many of their 2015 ReAction Figures.

Big Trouble in Little China
Breaking Bad
Arrow
Flash
Scarface
Taxi Driver

Though not displayed, BigBadToyStore had most of these up on preorder, including Fight Club figures.

McFarlane showed off a ton of new Walking Dead building sets including – prison cell block, RV, boiler room, Woodsbury Truck, Hospital. They also revealed the Series 8 AMC lineup which includes Rick, Dale, Eugene, Bob Stookey, and Morgan. There is also a Morgan/female zombie 2-pack coming.

NECA showed off the Aliens Power Loader and a torn in half Bishop.

And that was about it. 

Hasbro Marvel Legends - lots shown; however, I now take that with a grain of salt because half (if not more) of them never make it to market, so I don't get excited until I actually see them.


No Star Wars from Hasbro other than a few 6" Black Series we already know about. Hasbro is keeping things close to the vest this year, especially with the Force Awakens movie coming in December.

Trying to do a search for new Call of Duty Megabloks sets, I did find this on ToyArk:

As long as there are more CoD zombie sets, I am happy.

Bif Bang Pow showed off their Flash Gordon and KISS 3-3/4" figures along with some prototypes of the Big Bang Theory characters in Star Trek outfits.

Bottom line- Funko/Super7 stole the show. My wallet is open for them.
