There were many lines that could easily be featured here. Despite it’s initial rough start, McFarlane’s The Walking Dead has never looked better. Hasbro’s Star Wars: Black holds the honor of having the winner of Best Action Figure. And I give a nod to Mattel for even making a series of figures based on The Watchmen.

However, none of these come close to the work that Playmates Toys has done on Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. They have been extremely successful in the past 6 months with the launch of the new cartoon on Nickelodeon, and the launch of the brand new toys. This line has it all. They have new figures on a consistent bases, a glorious ‘Classic’ line, vehicles that (for the most part) make sense, and an amazing Sewer Lair Playset that will be the benchmark for playsets for years to come.

The Best Toyline at Toy Fair 2013 is Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles!!

This was a hard one to narrow down, especially since, for the most part, we are not able to hold the figures, and get a grasp of articulation and pliability. We are stuck with just how the figure looks. While there were a handful of eye-bulging new figures, the new Star Wars Black line is responsible for the winner.

Even though he is a character from the Prequel Trilogy, Darth Maul has become an iconic character for the whole Star Wars galaxy. His iconic red & black face, and double-bladed light saber will likely stand the test of time. However, aside from a few statues & unposeable figurines, it seemed like we would forever be doomed with a small scale 3 3/4″ figure. That is, until last week.

The Star Wars Black line is a fresh start for Hasbro, and will bring us quality 6″ figures of some of the finest Star Wars characters. Maul comes with all the bells and whistled you would expect, including a removable cloak to reenact the moments leading up to the famous light saber duel to close out Episode I. It seems as if the articulation is there (again, no touchies), and Hasbro has made huge strides in that department with the re-launch of Marvel Legends last year, so I would anticipate the articulation on that level.

Wrap all that up in a pretty box, and I give you the Best Action Figure of Toy Fair 2013!

However this year, DC Collectibles brought a smile to all of our faces when they revealed the oversized Solomon Grundy from the Batman: Arkham City video game! This figure has a removable chest plate & heart, meant recreate the fight scenes in the game. This massive figure is highly detailed, and fully poseable! And after holding this figure in my hand, I new this figure was the easy choice for Toy Fair 2013′s Biggest Surprise!

Hasbro announced a new Titan Class for Transformers, designed specifically for Metroplex from the Transformers: Fall of Cybertron. This massive Tranformers stands over 2 feet tall in Robot mode! While some might not consider Metroplex a playset, he is a Triple Changer Transformer with ‘base’ & ‘city’ modes, both designed to have other Transformers interact. Metroplex is sure to be a huge hit with all fans, and that is why this Transformer is the Best Playset of Toy Fair 2013!

Mattel teased us over the summer with a new Batman line, but they seemingly pulled out all the stops to make sure we see the acurate likenesses of Adam West, Burt Ward, Burgess Meredith & Frank Gorshin. Also confirmed was Cesar Romero, complete with painted over mustache, and The Catwoman! Little quirks like “Surf’s Up, Jokers Down” Batman, complete with surfing board & swimming trunks, and the side of the skyscraper for Batman & Robin to scale put this line at the top of the list!

So that is why the InsidePulse.com New Toyline of Toy Fair 2013 Award goes to Mattel’s Classic Batman!
