It should come as no surprise that the hot ticket invite at Toy Fair has to be Hasbro showroom. Just prior to Toy Fair 2020 Hasbro renewed their arrangement with Disney which should keep us in Marvel Legends and Star Wars toys for the foreseeable future. I was happy when I heard the news but I was happier about the return of my childhood favorite, G.I. Joe. The Joe team will be 6 inches tall, joining the popular Black Series scale.
No offense intended to any other company but I love Hasbro. My house looks like a Hasbro showroom with all of the Marvel, Star Wars, G.I. Joe and Nerf; so getting into the Saturday event was a big deal for me. The day started with a presentation that showed some of what was coming out this year for the various toy lines but the highlight was the appearance by Ivan and Jason Reitman. The Reitman’s were there to talk about Ghostbusters, the classic and the new. Sadly, there are no photos allowed during the presentation so I didn’t get a pic of the pair. It was Livestreamed on Facebook and if you missed it here is the link https://hasbropulse.com/blogs/unboxed/nytf-2020-livestream-recording.
I really can’t add too much to what was said in the presentation except that the Black Series Snowspeeder is AMAZING in person. Also the figures from the Black Widow movie are going to be must have for collectors and fans. Please enjoy our photo gallery and keep your eyes peeled for more news about upcoming Hasbro releases.
