Sometimes time isn't needed to judge a toy! The BanDai Final Fantasy VII Extra Knights Sephiroth from 1997 sucks.

So read on, read our Star Wars one too, and come back soon for more!

One of the best, shortest-lived toy lines ever! The Hasbro Xevoz Inferno Fury Action Figure started to hit clearance shelves in about seven months after its January 2004 debut, with the line lumbering slowly to an unceremonious end on clearance shelves and as (in some markets) online exclusives. So sad, so much promise. So read on, read our Star Wars one too, and come back soon for more!

Particularly exiting is a track from GoGo13, who put on fantastic shows and have pretty much no recordings available to the public-- and that includes the alternative music channels. (Yes I mean piracy.)

--AP

Also exciting is the PSOne import Cyberbots: Fullmetal Madness for $5.99. It's a Capcom game best known for a character being in Puzzle Fighter. In other words, obscure.

We love Xevoz! The Hasbro Xevoz Storm Wing Action Figure is one of the harder-to-get figures from the line, in part due to the poor distribution of the third series. So read on, read our Star Wars one too, and come back soon for more!

It's entirely possible that by not announcing it at the last big media event (SDCC) and there no longer being a large toy press publication like ToyFare for which to hold back an announcement, Hasbro no longer cares about getting information out there early and will now be trying to surprise us more. And by "surprise us" I mean "hold stuff back until a CNN or an MTV post an exclusive announcement."

--AP

New themes seem to be building on existing tooling with Horse Stables, Police, and a new round of Dinosaurs. The Dinosaur Adventure is largely existing parts-- the T-Rex, Brachiosaurus, Triceratops, and others were put out a few years ago, but now they have new paint, different figures, and different landscaping. New dinosaurs include what appears to be a relative of the Ankylosaurus called the Saichania, the close-enough Dimetrodon, the Stegosaurus, and lots of smaller creatures and babies. You'll note a tiny T-Rex and a young Brachiosaurus added to the mix.

An Olympics theme has been revealed with gymnasts, fencers, shot putters, and numerous other athletes. The bulk of these toys won't hit the USA until 2013, but it would be surprising to see them wait until the Olympics are over.

Most likely showing up in 2012 are new Fi?ures to follow the ones which just hit. This batch is much more exciting and diverse, and to follow Zorro is the equally copyright-questionable Elvis. I mean, look at it-- it's Elvis. A new Mariachi, basketball player, Asian warrior of some description, and sci-fi characters are included in the boys line. The girls includes a dead-ringer for Lara Croft as well as She-Vampires which I assume are here to fight Elvis. A Geisha/Kabuki/whatever (I'm ignorant) is also included, the ethnicities of the 2012 line seems to be significantly more non-white than before. Which is great-- but still, only one black guy? And no black women? You know what I'm expecting for 2013, then.

All in all, this sneak peek into the future-- 2013 for the USA-- is fascinating... and way, way more interesting than what came out in the states in 2012.

--AP

Other highlights?

The rarely seen original He-Man prototype, where he looked a little more like a viking. The Fwoosh has the panel coverage here and new booth photos here, which include an all-new character called The Mighty Spector. Slush Head, a Griffin, the Star Sisters, Thunder Punch He-Man, Stinkor, a regional convention-exclusive all-white Sorceress, and some other goodies were also shown.

Sadly, they're not "Movie Masters" but given the collector's market these days it's nice to see something. I should also note, the box unfolds to a massive 22-inch Fire House playset-- well, "playset." It's a nice bonus! Especially since, at 50 bones, it ain't cheap.
