I think it starts Monday.

Toy Fair starts Sunday, but other companies begin a little earlier (Hasbro Saturday, etc.).

I'm hoping to see something from Unimax.
Hopefully something new with Bravo Team or showing more of their gamestars line.

But nothing so far.

I have absolutely no hope of anything at this show, as far as 1:18 military stuff goes. At best a plane I won't want would surface and that's it, and even that chance is slim and none, and slim just left town.

There's nothing new in 1:18 scale for Bravo Team, at least not for the first part of this year.

GameStars will have Ghost Recon, more Assassin's Creed, and Starcraft figures out this year. Ghost Recon, of most interest to me and probably you guys, is due this summer. I'm very excited about them. Haven't seen pictures yet, hopefully we'll see some from TF.

More assassin's creed is cool too... I got a couple and my gf's son likes those a lot since that's a game he's obsessed with. They're pretty nice too. The jester guy is wandering my Cantina.

well, another lame-o toy fair. No new 1/18 anything. BBI was supposed to have been there but it looks like they weren't.

I was also hoping to see maybe 4 inch scale Walking Dead figures, or early Hobbit figures but nothin'.

The MTT is fun but that's about it. :raspberry:

ah i see. They were originally on figures.com's list but then disappeared from the list on Monday, so i figured they were a no show. I'm surprised they weren't showing off some of the 1/18 goodies they've produced this year.
