The Toy Fair for 2023 was a great return to form for the massive toy industry trade show and as a media attendee for more than a decade now, I was so happy that it had returned after the pandemic pause. In addition to the photographic company recaps and all of the social media reveals including our Official Instagram Takeover, a number of exhibitor overviews were done for the Official PiercingMetal YouTube Channel. While these videos are resident on the Channel itself, I’ve compiled them into a series of posts to expand the events presence on the website. Our fourth and final installment for this website shares the finds at the Toy Tokyo booth. They brought a number of their Redoneye Astronauts with them and they were something else.

If you’ve followed any of my previous coverage of the Toy Association’s Toy Fair trade show, you know that we haven’t had anything to report on since that scourge of a pandemic shut so much of life down for a couple of years. Now as the world slowly returns to some sense of normalcy, we are finding the concerts, conventions and trade shows all braving their return and I am happy to report that the Toy Fair will be making its own comeback this coming September, some three and a half years since it was last held. The other exciting news to share is that I will once again be attending as a member of the media after receiving the email earlier today that’s revealed below the graphic I fashioned for the occasion.
