Journal Entry 4

Rounding out our coverage...

With so many different lines and individual products, we didn't have everything completed and ready for display last week when we did all of our Fan Fair coverage. So in this brief entry, we'll show you the last couple of things from our showroom.

Keep in mind that these are all prototypes and are subject to change.

First up is the infamous N. Tropy, the master of time from the Crash Bandicoot: Warped video game. This is one figure we really wanted to nail, and we certainly did just that. The figure is the spitting image of the video game character. He'll come with his massive tuning fork and should be one of the most popular figures from the second series of Crash Bandicoot due out later this year.

Next up is a late addition to the Crash Bandicoot line. It's High Flying Crash Bandicoot. He's ready to take to the air for high flying adventures. What you see here is just a mock-up of the figure. The final figure will be even better and include a real fabric scarf. Not too shabby. The success of the first series of Crash Bandicoot has been so successful that we were able to expand the line with this nifty new figure. Should be a cool addition to the overall scheme of things.

Lastly, we have the 12-inch Trixie from the Speed Racer line. She turned out pretty sweet and the reactions have been very positive toward the entire line. The head sculpt really captures the essence of the figure. We have one additional figure still in development for the 12-inch Speed Racer line; Racer X. He wasn't completed in time for display at Toy Fair, but he is looking pretty swanky. He'll have a yellow racing jacket similar to Speed's and should be a rocking addition to the line.

Toy Fair is wrapping up for us. Just a few more days. Everyone is holding up pretty well. You really have to hand it to the hundreds (if not thousands) of people who work incredibly long hours to pull off all of the Toy Fair events. These fine people toil in anonymity to help promote an endless variety of products. You have to give them credit for really stepping up and coming through under tough circumstances.

We'll be here one more time tomorrow. Hope you'll stop back in one last time and visit the ReSaurus showroom. Then it'll be back to business as usual next week.
