Spin Master 2021 Preview – Making Me Wish I Was 10 Again

Spin Master 2021 PreviewIn absence of an in person Toy Fair this year, as the Javits Center is currently a mass vaccination site, some of the companies took to virtual presentations in order to show off their upcoming toy lines for 2021. I was thrilled to get an invite to the Spin Master 2021 Preview, and as usual, I logged off wishing that I could be 10 years old again. I am super excited about some of these toys, everybody.

The Spin Master 2021 Preview was a treat, with a lot of really interesting and amazing toys on display. But I’m going to focus on all of the toys that I was particularly exited about in the hopes that you will all be just as excited about them as I am.

BAKUGAN

The latest incarnation of Bakugan warriors are here! When I was invited to the 2019 Invitational Tournament, the big thing for 2020 was the Pro line of products and Armored Alliance. For 2021, the line is Geogan Rising. Introduced in season 3, the Geogan are an ancient species that come in a variety of shapes.

BATMAN

The big news from the 2020 Toy Fair (the last in-person event I was able to attend) was that Spin Master had acquired the license to make DC toys. Their first year with the license was successful, including a Toy of the Year nomination for their 4-inch figures. This year, Batman is all about the tech. (Micah reviewed the 4-inch Bat-Tech figure here.)
