Toy Fair is less than two weeks away!
My predictions.
Hasbro: I think there is finally a pretty good chance on Micronauts because of the upcoming comic. Maybe a Rom figure too. No MASK, JEM or GI JOE. For SW they will finally show the Force Awakens Luke and Leia figures. Mostly they will show Captain America movie stuff and Transformers.
Mattel: No MOTU at retail. They will push Max Steele and bring back Street Sharks. Possibly Food Fighters as well and other line they own the rights to that isn't MOTU.
Bridge Direct: They might do a Purple Pieman figure because the character is finally being introduced into the new Strawberry Shortcake continuity.
My hopes (or stuff I'd love to see but has little to no chance of actually happening.)
Dungeons and Dragons figures from the LJN toy line. Hasbro owns the rights to the characters but has shown no interest in marketing them other than the Warduke mini in 2006.
A Sunbow GI JOE cartoon line. I want the cartoon Zartan with long hair dammit! And a Swamp Skier that is big enough for the figure to actually use. A classic toon Duke and Scarlett that can actually sit in the vehicles this time would also be nice.
Kenner MASK with finally a Gloria Baker and her Shark vehicle set.
Sectaurs and Silverhawks.
