Thanks for the link!

That printed HazMat hood looks gorgeous – and now that I think about it, Doc's head would make for a good Moff Tarkin, should one be so inclined.

Thanks! Are these the first pictures of the Back to the Future sets? I was hoping for a bit more, since the Ghostbusters range was pretty big and includes the Fire Station which I didn't expect. So really I was hoping for more 50s stuff.

Small bad pics of the novelties cat didn't show any other sets... but I don't know if there are pages there not shown (doubt it, by now, right?)

YES!  But NOT a half (or less) clock tower in system WHY :(

The hair seems to be the prototype from the 3D-printer:

Also Scooby-Doo seems to be the 3D-printed version here :P :

Some heads and hats (perhaps also prints) seem to be not the final versions of what we have seen from the catalogue pictures:

Thanks for the photos. The video is really good and shows everything really well. I am happy to see that they are for sure being released in the US this next year. I will definitely be getting the Scooby Doo sets. When we hear a release date I will open a co-op thread for the mystery figure packs.

Thanks for the pics, bml87  :)

I had not realized those are large klickys. Thank the gods Back To The Future is not a must have. 

I REALLY want that scooby doo van. In black. With a red stripe!  :love:

Thanks for links & pics!

So the Scooby Doo "ghost" armoured knight looks to come in lightblue?!  :-\  Or is it the lighting?
From the first catalogue pics it looked like he was in an anthracite metal colour...

It's only the last pic that has the big klickys in it. The earlier pic with klickys dressed the same next to the car has the regular sized ones. You can see the difference on the red jacket which appears to have printed buttons on the normal one and moulded buttons on the larger size plus the hairline looks weird on the larger one - at least the Marty McFly one.

As I mentioned before, some of the parts, prints and heads aren’t the final versions compared to the pictures of the novelties catalogue. The Scooby Doo sets will be released in May 2020, so the sets and klickies are probably not in production yet. In some of the pictures you can clearly see that the prints are stickers and that some parts are printed by a 3D printer. In the case of the knight, which is called the Black Knight in the series I guess it’s either the light or the fact that this is the prototype of what the final version will look like as presented in the novelties catalogue. This is clearly dark-grey, almost black:

I am loving the idea of reporting from a Toy Fair as one feels like a journalist  :lens:
