Walter White, Wonder Woman And Jon Snow Walk Into A Bar: Toy Fair 2013, Day 1

Toy Fair descends onto Manhattan’s Jacob Javitz Convention this week, bringing with it loads of plastic you don’t care about. But Toy Fair also shines a spotlight on the weirdest, coolest collectibles and playthings that you’ll be lusting over for the next twelve months. In these images, you’ll see statues for Superman: The Man of Steel, along with comic book and video game character figures from Square Enix’s Play Arts. There are also highlights from Dark Horse’s comics and Game of Thrones merch and McFarlane Toys’ Rabbids and Assassin’s Creed licenses from Ubisoft. You can see selections from Mezco’s showing, too, which include Breaking Bad toys and figures from Axe Cop, the comic that’s becoming an Adult Swim cartoon show later this year. Got something you want me to track down at Toy Fair? Ask away in the comments.
