Toy Fair 2022: New Bendy and the Ink Machine & FGTeeV Construction Sets

It was 2018 when we last saw Basic Fun introducing the world at large to Bendy and the Ink Machine via their C3 construction sets. Unfortunately, the line didn't last that long and fans of the game were left with few creepy collectibles to haunt their shelves. Flash forward to UK Toy Fair 2022 and Phat Mojo, who set up their lightning rods and resurrected the dead!

No HUGE announcement of a full line of sets and figures as yet, BUT we did catch one construction set in full view. The "Heavenly Toys Buildable Set" comes with 3 buildable mini figures and 383 pieces. Check out the eye candy...

Toy Fair 2022: Phat Mojo Spends Five Nights at Freddy's

I have always believed that it is a sign of an advanced civilization when we allow our children to be super spooky. It happened in the 60's when monster movies were all the rage and model kits, mego dolls and rubber jiggling creeps were in every store window. The 80's and 90's were pretty decent for horror films but censors ruined everything and the toy aisles reflected that. Still, we got some super questionable Freddy Krueger merch, Inhumanoids and other fantastic fiends. Plants vs Zombies reminded big business that kids love to be freaked out by the undead, paving the way for a little game that grew into a massive licensing juggernaut; FIVE NIGHTS AT FREDDY'S!! Though I'm still waiting for McFarlane to make super detailed, fully realized monster versions of those lovable killer animatronics, we've still got Phat Mojo keeping the dream alive.
