Avengers: Doomsday Toys Surface *SPOILER WARNING*

Avengers Doomsday Toy Preview
We invested a great deal of time into a video showing you all the Spider-Man: Brand New Day toys hitting shelves NOW and....SOON! Among the pre-order listings, we also found new T-shirts and hoodies with a team of Spidey villains dancing across them...because you know one villain isn't enough to take down our web-head! In Brand New Day, it seems like Tombstone, Scorpion, Tarantula, and Boomerang are all vying for a piece of the man in blue and red, now left all alone after the events of Far From Home.

NYCC 2025: Hasbro's G.I.Joe Marches On

NYCC 2025 Hasbro GIJoe 05
EVOLVE OR DIE! This was the battle cry for G.I.Joe as weak, live-action movies forced loveless action figure lines and nearly put the license in the ground. Some years later, G.I.Joe enjoys new life in a 6 inch figure format, introducing characters like Fire Fighters and Police that inspire collectors to ARMY BUILD, even if they only have the slightest interest in the Joes and their eternal struggle with COBRA. THAT is a turnaround! Let's take a look at what Hasbro has on tap for G.I.Joe in the coming months...

Toy Fair 2025 Hasbro Nano-Mals NARWHAL
Unlock a world of fashionable, pocket-sized pets with Nanomals! Nano-mals are electronic, interactive pets and adorable mini companions that need your love each day! Each Nano-mals pet has an electronic heart meter – fidget to find out what they need. The more you play, the more interactions you unlock.

When their heart meter drops, they’ll make sounds to let you know they need care. If their heart meter is blue, they want to be pet, so press their ears. If their heart is yellow, they’re hungry – press their mouth to pretend feed them. Is their heart pink? Click their arms up and down to make them dance. What about purple? They want to move! Flip, catch, or shake to fill their heart. Your Nano-mal will celebrate their full heart with a song and colorful lights show. Nano-mals interact with each other when you place two or more close together. Collect and connect to discover new interactions! Give them some extra flair with a textured snap-on outfit that is cross compatible as you collect more. Plus, they come with an attached clip, so they make a great kids keychain for on-the-go play. Nano-mals are the perfect gift for kids who love animal toys and digital pets.

Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire Movie Toys Hitting Now!

Ghostbusters Frozen Empire Fright Features Trevor Spengler 5 inch figure
The extended warmth could only last for so long, and now the chill is enough to shock a body awake instantly. The snow has fallen... the ice is creeping in a slightly supernatural way... Who you gonna call?? 

For Ghostbusters Fans (like meeee!!), it's time to celebrate the oncoming film FROZEN EMPIRE, and now that we are in the 2-month countdown, the official toys have begun hitting retailer shelves. As is the custom, and to not spoil the movie, the initial drop will contain pretty basic things we've seen in the trailers. Once the movie drops, all bets are off! Crossing my fingers for some new ghosts (ie; non-cartoony versions of the Pukey, Bonesey, and Possessor ghosts you can meet below!), and that Hasbro will finally take the iconic license beyond the newest film and the classic toy line and push into Animated Real Ghostbusters territory while inviting visionary artists to come up with some original creatures to add to the shelf top battles. A man can dream!
