Toy Chest

By: Mathew Bredfeldt Mathew_Bredfeldt@nospamhotmail.com

First up this month is the news that Hasbro is opening an on-line toyshop to sell new 3.75 inch GI Joes to toy crazy fans. The web site at http://www.HasbroToyShop.com should be up right now, so you can order to your heart's content. "What do they sell?" you may want to ask me. Well, I'll tell ya. They sell single carded figures, three packs with comics and even six packs of figures as well as the occasional vehicle.

The Transformers Cyberton line should be out in August and have all new characters. They will include Vector Prime, Ransack, Crumple Zone, Overhaul, and Scattershot.

DC Direct has a new line called Secret Files Unmasked that is coming out in January 2006. The line features figures with changeable heads that include characters from DC mythos. Look for Clark Kent, Bruce Wayne, Red Hood/Joker, Barbara Gordon and J'onn J'onnz.

Last up for this month is Toy Biz's Lord of the Rings line. Due out in the fall is a group of figures based on all three of the movies. Look for Eowyn, Grey Havens Gandolf, Council of Elrond Aragorn, Frodo and the more than likely short packed Mordor Orc.
