I’m often jealous of today’s generation of kids who get to play with toys that incorporate new technologies that didn’t exist when I was a kid, especially when seeing everything new at Toy Fair. That’s why stopping at Jazwares is always exciting. They don’t just make toys for kids, but also for the kidult in all of us. Whether you’re looking to collect the worlds of your favorite franchises, or want to color up a room with some fun plush, here’s a look at everything Jazwares had on display this year.
Adult Halloween Costumes
Halloween is just around the corner, and Jazwares offers licensed costumes for both kids and adults. Three adult costumes were on display at Jazwares’ showcase at New York Toy Fair, starting with the Darth Vader Qualux Costume. The printed poly jersey depicts Lord Vader’s life support systems and includes a detachable cape and a 3D half mask, all for a suggested retail price of $53.00.
Swing around town in the Marvel Adult Deluxe Spider-Man Zentai Suit. This spandex suit features a graphic design of Peter Parker's classic suit, with a separate spandex mask with plastic molded eyes included for $54.99. A zipper in the back extends all the way down to the crotch, making it easy to get in and out of.
If Spider-Man isn’t edgy enough for you, you can push boundaries in the Marvel Adult Deadpool Zentai Suit. Like the Spider-Man suit, this form-fitting spandex jumpsuit includes printed designs of Wade Wilson's suit, with a separate mask. This one features zippers in the front and back, as well as wrist openings.
Star Wars Micro Galaxy Squadron
New this fall is the Star Wars Micro Galaxy Squaron AT-AT Walker from The Empire Strikes Back. Retailing for $59.99 and for ages 8 and up, this highly detailed line of miniature figures and vehicles is a Star Wars fan’s dream space-saving collectible. The star of this new set is a 10–inch Imperial Walker from the Battle of Hoth, with light-up laser canons, articulated legs and head, a cockpit that opens, and a side panel with a light-up command center, troop bay, speeder storage bay, and troop deployment crane.
The set comes with articulated 1-inch figures of Luke Skywalker in his Hoth gear, General Veers, an AT-AT Pilot, and 2 Snowtroopers. It also comes with a Hoth Speeder Bike. You can combine this with other Star Wars Micro Galaxy Squadron releases to create your own miniature battle scenes.
Marvel’s Spidey and his Amazing Friends
Jazwares offers lots of fun ways for preschoolers to interact with their favorite Disney Junior show, Marvel’s Spidey and his Amazing Friends. Plush dolls of Peter Parker, Miles Morales, and Gwen Stacey allow kids to flip up their mask to reveal their faces through the Secret Hero Reveal talking plush collection.
Kids who love cars and Spidey will adore the Web Transporter Feature Vehicle, a 14-inch playset that comes with 3 mini vehicles (Spidey, Ghost-Spider, and Miles Morales). The Web Transporter lights up and plays sounds, featuring 12 action zones, including a helipad and a ramp. Best of all, when playtime is done, the transporter acts as a storage case for up to 6 mini vehicles.
Amazing Metals vehicles take Spidey and His Amazing Friends (and baddies) on the road in 3-inch die-cast toys. They’re available individually, or as a Target exclusive 7-pack that bundles multiple heroes and villains.
The coolest way to play with Amazing Metals vehicles is with the Spidey & His Amazing Friends Amazing Metals Track Set. This 24″ dual race track features 5 action zones, including Green Goblin’s crash walls, a collapsing bridge, and a web swing. Comes with 2 vehicles of Spidey and Miles.
Squishmallows
The holidays are just around the corner and Squishmallows are getting into the holiday spirit with a variety of festive characters.
These include fan favorites, like Brina the Pink Bigfoot wearing a scarf and a winter hat, as well as new originals like a bottle of Milk for Santa and a Christmas Tree with Snow, both exclusive to CVS.
Squishmallows won Plush of the Year at the Toy of the Year Awards for Borsa the Spotted Highland Cow. Licensed Pokémon Squishmallows also won Collectible of the Year (more details on Pokémon Squishmallows can be found below in the Pokémon section).
Diehard Squishmallows collectors will know about one of the rarest Squishmallows ever made, the Jazmanian Lion, made to commemorate Jazwares 25th anniversary and exclusively given to Jazwares employees. A giant version of the Jazmanian Lion was on display at Toy Fair for photo ops.
BumBumz
New to Jazwares at this Toy Fair was BumBumz, 7.5" trendy, soft, sensory plush. The display included some larger-than-life display pieces, including a Christmas tree and fireplace from the holiday collection.
From foods like BreakfastBumz and KitchenBumz to pop culture collections like GroovyBumz and RetroBumz, these little cuddle buddies have a lot of personality.
Hello Kitty and Friends
Jazwares is now Sanrio’s North American master toy maker and Hello Kitty fans get a first look at the initial collection, launching next year. These include plush figures of some of your favorite Sanrio friends, including Kuromi, My Melody, Cinnamoroll, and Keroppi.
Furry friends won’t be left out, with an adorable Hello Kitty pet bed coming soon.
Adopt Me!
The ultimate pet adoption Roblox game comes home through a line of plush and action figures, each of which comes with a special code that can be used in the game. Among them is the Neon Unicorn plush with 3 light patterns. The code gives players a Rainbow Maker Backpack that will create a rainbow wake behind your avatar in the game.
Action figure sets are also part of the collection, with a Coffee Shop and Playground Playset standing out as something special. It comes with a playground and coffee shop to scale with the included figures of Archer the barista and Visitor Gem, plus pets like Bee, Queen Bee, Irish Elk, and Pelican.

Battle Figures also come in bundles with clipable Poké Balls called Clip and Go. While they can fit on any belt, Jazwares also offers a bundle with a themed belt for aspiring Pokemon trainers. And for kids who really want to feel like a trainer, the Train & Play Deluxe Pikachu 4.5-inch figure features over 50 unique reactions.
