The PopCult Toybox: Toy Fair 2015 Report
Your PopCulteer and his lovely wife/assistant, Melanie Larch, attended the New York International Toy Fair week before last in New York City and we continue to bring you video, photos, and reports from this huge and overwhelming event.
Today we chronicle our visit to the Diamond Select Toys booth. Diamond Select Toys is the toy arm of Diamond Comic Distributors and they create action figures and other toys aimed at the collector’s market. You can find Diamond Select Toys in comic book and hobby shops across the nation, as well as at Toys R Us and national book chains.
Diamond Select Toys Director of Marketing, Zach Oat, gave us a personal tour of their jam-packed exhibit and you can follow along in the video below:
While it was great having our own personal guided tour to share with you via video, we know you want some closeups. So what follows is a photo essay combining pictures we took at the Diamond Select Toys booth with courtesy photos they provided for us. Needless to say, a lot of collectors are going to be hurting in the wallet in the coming year, thanks to the good folks at Diamond.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Shredder Vinyl Bust Bank
A Diamond Select Toys release! The next vinyl bank based on the hit Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles animated series is here, and it’s gonna give the Turtles some trouble! Oroku Saki, a.k.a. The Shredder, makes his vinyl bank debut, standing approximately 8 inches tall with a coin slot in the back, an access door in the base, and the detailed sculpting of a collectable bust! Where the Shredder goes, can the Foot Clan be far behind? Packaged in a clear polybag.

Our photos of this cool Rick bust, from The Walking Dead comic book, came out too blurry, so here’s this cool product shot
