Toy Fair 2010 – McFarlane Halo, Playmakers, and Prince of Persia Pics

McFarlane (1024x768)

Here’s some booth pics of the Halo, Playmakers, and Prince of Persia lines from McFarlane.  I didn’t speak to anyone at the booth, but it was interesting to see Todd McFarlane working the booth.  He’s participated in special events at Toy Fair before, but I can’t remember him actively manning the booth and talking to buyers and media.

Halo

I wish I had gotten better pictures of the upcoming vehicles.  The Warthog looks very promising and with the Halo video game franchise plugging along, I can see this license continuing for the long haul.

Playmakers

These look like there’s some decent variety in body types and feature some good posability.  I still dislike that McF chose to pack hitters and batters separately instead of charging a little more and giving interchangeable heads and hands..  As you can see, they’re planning to move into football next.  Makes sense.

Prince of Persia

I think the smaller figures look to have decent sculpts and articulation, but I’m not sure there’s anything compelling outside of the license itself – so these could live or die based on the success of the movie.
