Description

"We interview Mezco about their upcoming toy line based on the TV show Heroes. Who’s in the line? What will they look like? We’ve got all the details and pictures! Mezco’s Heroes toys will be on the cover of this issue. In the 1970s and ’80s, some crazy shows got toys. We’ll run down some of the wackiest, like The Love Boat! Plus: a look at Brazilian toy company Glasslite, who made toys for Airwolf and Magnum P.I. that never made it to the States! Fans have long talked about getting playsets and vehicles for their Marvel Legends, and now that Hasbro makes them, the chances are better than ever! We’ll talk to Hasbro about the chances of getting items like the Quinjet, Blackbird and Danger Room! Robocop. Gremlins. Lord of the Rings. Planet of the Apes. Ghostbusters. Back to the Future. Jurassic Park. They were once multi-media franchises—today, they’re nowhere to be found. Here’s what we’d like to see from some of our favorite franchises of all time. Sure, you have to go to Florida or California to get them, but the Disney Parks’ exclusive toys are some of the best collectibles out there. We’ll talk to the team behind the Disney-exclusive figures to find out what goes into their awesome mash-up toys. Each month is an insane trip inside our toy library as classic toy lines of yesterday and today come to life…and have to deal with all of the same junk we do. What crazy adventure will the toys of “TTT” go on next?"
