Toy Fair 2015: Minions Figures Out of Hiding

I thought we'd kick off today's Toy Fair 2015 coverage with those little yellow henchmen kids can't get enough of. It's the Minions! This year, these odd little yellow people get their own movie and the toys have been kept completely under wraps. ...trust me..we've been checking. Today, we'll take a quick look at some of the figure designs coming our way with the movie's release. Will there be toys that talk? Most definitely. Will there be ones you can love and squish and hold captive forever? Absolutely. Will we be showing you either of those types of toys today? Probably not.
