Toy Fair- Bandai 2012

Monday, February 13th, 2012

Today we had the chance to take a look at some of the fun new toys Bandai has in store for 2012.

In the Ben 10 Omniverse series both the teenage-Ben and the much loved 10 year old Ben are getting a makeover and the toys reflect just that.

In addition to the action figures, Bandai’s new 2012 Ben 10 Omniverse licensed toys include several playsets and the Ben 10 Omnitrix Touch–

and spy gear, modeled here by Toy Trend Expert, Reyne Rice–

Our Toy Insider Mom was especially excited to see the new connect-and-play Pac Man game. Did you know that Pac-Man has 256 Levels?

Playing through 256 levels without being able to save the game seems almost unimaginable today, doesn’t it? In addition to PacMan, this connect-and-play system also includes 12 of your favorite retro arcade games and features a concealed storage area for TV connector cord.

Inside the Bandai booth we also saw some great Power Rangers Super Samurai action figures, vehicles, role play items and Megazords.

We fill you in on even more details about these toys and many others we’re finding here at Toy Fair over the next week.
