Update News Toy Fairs Toy Trade Fairs

This week will the start of the various toy trade shows around the world. The first is London followed by Nuremberg then New York City. The New York City Toy Fair is held at the Jacob Javits Center. The place is massive. At one time they had the Merchandise Trade show in the lower level, Toy fair now has both levels.

While the show is very interesting to see it is a disappointment if you are only looking for plastic toy soldiers. If they are there they will be few and far between the many vendors trying to sell dolls and games. It is one of the reasons I gave up attending the show. (Not because of my walking which is fine.)

I will be watching various sources for their reports. The action figures will be well covered. Also Peter Evans should be going to the London show and he will let us know if he see s anything as he has done in the past. So we will see what turns up.

    The Aurora Knights are some great figures; I’d seen them years ago and always wanted them; I never knew which company they were from. Thanks for sharing the pics.

    The Aurora Camelot knights have unusual armor. Some of it looks like leather or cloth padding. Any experts out there? They would be great as soft plastic re-issues but who knows what became of the tooling / molds. They had a tie in with the Camelot movie and have the Warner Bros. Seven Arts copyright on the bottom so that may be one reason they have never been re-issued.

    Ive always liked and wanted those Aurora Knights, Really nice figures. A few years ago i was looking on ebay and saw them for sale at a reasonable price in the U.S. and went to buy them but someone got in front of me and brought them seconds before i did. I couldn’t believe it. I was frustrated by that for days after.
