While I am nowhere near the level of toy collector I once was - I literally buy just a handful of toys a year at this point - I really do look forward to Toy Fair every February.

This year, I’ve found that the best overall coverage has been provided by The Toyark, who has outdone themselves with literally hundreds if not thousands of photos from the show floor.

I recommend checking them out if you want to see everything, but here are a few of the items which grabbed my eye:

Toy Fair 2018 Super 7 Booth 019

The surreal Legends of Lucha Libre line coming from Super7, which includes something I’ve always wanted out of a toy - LUCHADORES IN SUITS!

Toy Fair 2018 McFarlane Stranger Things 001

McFarlane’s impressive Stranger Things line, which now has looks and characters from Season 2 - which I’d be more delighted about if their figures weren’t so statue-esq and fragile.

NECA Pale Man 005

NECA’s awe-inspiring figure of the Pale Man from Pan’s Labyrinth.

Toy Fair 2018 Big Boys Toys 005

These wonderfully funky Street Fighter II vinyl toys from a company named Big Boys

STAR WARS THE BLACK SERIES 6 INCH Figure Assortment Range Trooper E1204 B3834

Something called a “Range Trooper" from Solo: A Star Wars Story. I know everyone is digging on Lando’s look, but what the sweet hell is this?

And finally…

Venom 6 Inch Legends Spider Ham

A goddamned Peter Porker: The Spectacular Spider-Ham figure. What a weird reality we’ve found ourselves where this will be on the shelves of your local Target.
