Toy Fair 2010, hosted in New York City from February 1417, boasts "over 20,000 attendies, 350,000 square feet of exhibit space, 100,000 products with over 7,000 never before seen in the world, 1200+ exhibitors, [and] 1000 global media representatives."

MediaWiki was invited to Hasbro's 2010 Collector-Fan Media Day at The Times Center on Saturday, February 13, and wiki contributors David Willis and Greg Sepelak attended. Following a presentation starting at 1pm, fan representatives were allowed into Hasbro's product showroom.

Coverage

Revenge of the Fallen/Adjectiveless Transformers

  • Hasbro wants a "broader scope," and hopes to "reinvent" the line as one that isn't specifically tied to the live-action film, though it may contain characters from it. It will be a general celebration of Transformers.
  • A "HUNT FOR DECEPTICONS" promotion will accompany the line. Codes can be found in packages that will "unlock" mini-games on Transformers.com.

  1. The Robot Powered Machines range is being renamed, but while the Toy Fair Transformers press release rechristened the line "Action Fleet", the packaging at Toy Fair featured the name "Speed Stars". What the final name will turn out to be is uncertain at this time.
