Hi Everyone,
Slow week for new items coming out. I doubt there will be much more until after the start of the new year. Hopefully there will be more in the way of toys this coming year. I've heard rumours of a lot of things but I haven't seen any press releases yet. Definitely should be more Lovables stuff out though-I've already seen some beanie characters of them but haven't heard of them in any stores yet. Let's hope WB starts pushing the whole line again!

If you see any new items in stores, have any other news or would like to submit something to the newsletter please email it to me so I can spread the word!
Thanks,
Richard
