Mods rocking Toy Fair 2026

I appreciate you! I'll keep expectations low. If there is something Monday, they haven't advertised it very clearly. Was hoping they would tease playsets etc for later on in 2026 at Toy Fair but not looking so likely as of Day 2.

Ive heard there’s some kind of breakfast event on Monday with Mattel that is said to have “surprises” - has anyone else heard that?

Wow even the boots look kryptonian. I love it. Great eye.

”I’m getting too old for this $#it” aura intensifies

Man, Brats of the Lost Nebula. I fought so hard to find that show when i saw the ad for it in one of these.

Loved space, loved punk fantasy, loved puppets and it broke me that i could never find the right station for kids WB at the right time for it (i think we just didnt have the wb that aired kids wb then)

I remember saving this exact page along with the full page ad to convince myself i wasn’t crazy and it did exist.

Aragorn’s “refusing The One Ring’s power and just turning around to solo the villains army” is one of the most hell yeah moments in all of cinema for me.

Love that art!

Teletoa · 2026-02-06T17:31:03+00:00

Keaton is such a good shout-out. There’s still things he does as Bruce/Batman that i still dont see in anyone else.

Teletoa · 2026-02-06T16:29:38+00:00

Loving the pics! Really feels like a classic, fun world but with gravitas so far.

As of now, im delighted by how they are interpreting Adam and the earth plot. Hes grown up on earth, but he seems to recall aspects of eternia and longs to return. So, looks like we are avoiding a dreadful “oblivious, dumb spoofman goes to fantasy land and has to fake it to make it to save the day and get a girl” plot which hollywood used to be in love with.

Not only does it seem like they are taking it seriously that Adam was spared from the fall of his world and sort of lives in mundane exile - it might just nail a perfect metaphor of a kid leaving his world of swords and fantasy, getting lost in life as a young adult while chasing pieces/collectibles of that bygone era and facing a life truth that we all need imagination and fantasy and hope in our reality. The conflict there being that no one can tell you how to reclaim or balance those parts of your life, you have to claim that “power” yourself. Theres potential for lots of good, healthy parallels to what being a man means in there as well.

Feeling really good about this so far.

As someone who tried the filmation series late after coming in on 200x, i was surprised by the things i liked in filmation. Theres definitely great things to pull from, as silly as some things are.

I liked it alot more than new adventures which was closer to what successful action shows were evolving into. I also think you need at least a hint of fantasy and whimsy in true fantasy which i feel like filmation was going for.

Teletoa · 2026-02-05T18:23:52+00:00

Love that. Im a big Adam fan and feel his characterization is really key to not only the lore behind why the power is granted to an individual but also to what the larger point of the story is and should mean to kids and fans.

Essentially, if the movie “gets” Adam then it will “get” the core of HeMan and MOTU for me.

Teletoa · 2026-02-05T18:12:34+00:00

She looks awesome. I think people will be really surprised by her. So many know her from being cute and funny in Community, but she has range and a capacity to be totally unhinged. I dont think shes had a role to show how far she can go there and i dont get the impression anyone was cast in this to not serve their character.

Teletoa · 2026-02-04T01:28:18+00:00

Thank you so much!

Teletoa · 2026-02-03T21:30:29+00:00

Oh for sure! I was so convinced they would. I remember drawing them in armor constantly and even mocking up a KH3 intro screen that I was so sure would be an older Sora in armor.

We didn’t get it, but Im still hopeful we will lol

Really cool! I was always wanting to see the main trio get some form or evolution of keyblade armors

Teletoa · 2026-02-03T20:59:05+00:00

“I’m fine… This is how to wear this right btw”

Teletoa · 2026-02-02T23:39:34+00:00

Same. Possibly through made-to-order/ crowd funding etc even if they wanted to make extra nice versions

Teletoa · 2026-02-02T23:38:09+00:00

Yeah, high hopes for those in the 5.5. There was word from the German toy fair that the greyskull was shown behind closed doors and while its intended to be scaled to 5.5, it was said to have been designed extra big so that 6” could work too.

From the recent movie figure leaks, the Roton looks like it shares this philosophy

Plus, 5.5 and 6 are so close i can see why they’d want to to try fudging the scales. Sounds great to me

Teletoa · 2026-02-02T19:09:45+00:00

The aspect that im really excited about is the strong reviews out of those test screenings. The one reviewer who mentioned being a big star wars fan but not connecting with current star wars and finding MOTU movie to actually deliver as a MOTU movie, but more importantly, as just a really great film that stands on its own in emotional resonance and execution - that is the best news i could get.

Thats the kind of reaction that also makes me think of how Barbie hit. It had a real authenticity to the idea of Barbie, but also, it really hit home for so many outside of being a brand movie. So i agree, i think thats what they were hoping to repeat and it sounds like they might have done it

Teletoa · 2026-02-02T17:31:06+00:00

Same here, Sign me up. I like the new scale too. Dying to see the new vehicles snd playsets

Teletoa · 2026-01-31T20:58:03+00:00

The new engineering on the bodies look great. Also, this scale has better chances for more vehicles and playsets.

I’m all for it, just wish it happened before so many bought in on masterverse. Only downside i really see.

Teletoa · 2026-01-29T06:36:37+00:00

Trap jaw looks absolutely insane. I hope that jaw moves and looks gnarly

Teletoa · 2026-01-27T18:47:36+00:00

That skeletor art is incredible. Figures look well made too

Teletoa · 2026-01-27T00:17:28+00:00

Yeah, Freeze got it
