June 2, 2025 Ken Pierce Leave a comment

Next month, comic book fans everywhere will be shouting “Look! Up In The Sky”, as director James Gunn bring his first DC Studios film to the masses with “Superman”. As a diehard comic book fan I’m looking forward to the film and if you’ve missed the Official Trailer, just hit the hyperlinked text to bring that to your attention on a new browser tab.. Now, the fine folks at Spin Master have announced some of the toys that will be hitting the shelves in advance of the film. Check them out and be sure to secure them for your own collection.

Get ready for the ultimate clash of hero and monster with this action-packed set featuring a towering 12” Kaiju and a 6” Superman action figure. Superman throws powerful punches to take on the mighty Kaiju, who fights back with fierce claw-swipes. When the Kaiju is defeated, kids can unleash a dramatic blue slime explosion, making every victory feel epic and exciting.

MSRP: $29.99 | Ages: 4+ | Available at Amazon, Target and Walmart

Up, up, and away! Let Krypto take flight with this 7.5” superdog that flies & hovers through exclusive motion-sensored flight tech – just guide him with your hand underneath, no remote needed! Fans of this loyal companion will love watching him soar when creating sky-high adventures, daring missions & heroic rescues. Includes USB charging cable.

MSRP: $29.99 | Ages: 4+ | Available at Amazon, Target and Walmart

PiercingMetal Thoughts: These are pretty cool, and I will admit that the scene where Superman is fighting the Kaiju look interesting and who doesn’t love Krypto. I’m so excited that he will be joining the cast of this new DC Universe of film. Now as far as I’m concerned in collecting, I am more into the 6″ or smaller action figures and while I was not able to photograph them at the Toy Fair based on their being embargoed, these are what I am most looking forward to. “Superman” stars David Corenswet, Rachel Brosnahan & Nicholas Hout and hits the theaters in early July. That’s all I’ve got for now, so do please chime in down below in the comments and let me know what you think about these two offerings. See you next time.

Exhibitor Spotlight from Toy Fair 2025: Super7 Part One

March 20, 2025 Ken Pierce Leave a comment

Hey there my friends and welcome back. Now before I get started on this post from the earlier this month’s Toy Fair, I wonder if you’ve had enough by now and wish for me to stop. If you answered “yes” for some reason I am afraid that I can’t help you since I still have a few more posts to bring to your attention. With this post I’m beginning the discoveries over at the Super7 booth. I’ve been a fan of their releases for a few years and now let’s get into it.

Anytime that we see Super7 at the Toy Fair or even the New York Comic Con they have their guardian at the gates with the giant statue of Mummy Boy. Offhand I don’t recall if they’ve brought it him to the New York Comic Con but they might have and I’m just not remembering it. He’s a really cool figure just the same and I always smile when I see him welcoming in the buyers and media at the booth.

Our friends at Super7 are way big on the blind boxes in terms of releases and while the originally packaged a whole lot of Godzilla Reaction Figures, there are now a few different sets coming to the purchaser as a mystery.

Welcome back my friends and yes you’ve arrived another installment of our comprehensive coverage of the Toy Association’s Toy Fair. We attended the incredible trade show last week and it was our 12th time doing so in a media capacity. Today I am bringing you into the Playmates Toys booth and we really like a number of their licenses. Now, instead of me yammering away any longer let’s get to work.

One of the main product lines that I enjoy the most has to be their “Monsterverse” line. These items are focused on the recent “Godzilla X Kong” series of films and this is the kind of stuff that is right up my alley. Let’s take a look at what was brought to the show.
