BrutalGamer Bringing you Brutally Honest feedback from today's entertainment industry.
With Spawn’s action figure comeback already assured, McFarlane Toys returns to another theme they’re known for – monsters.
Beastly
Breaking out today is the news that McFarlane Toys is back in the creature game. The toy company is known for its monsters and creatures, with a number of excellent figures from the 90s under its belt.
Now here in the new millennium though, it’s time for something slightly different than what’s come before. That of course, is RAW10.
RAW10 is not just a line, but a new original IP for McFarlane, which will play off of a cyber-animal theme. and as you’ll see, it even includes an old friend…
“I’m excited to get back to creating and designing creature and monster toys,” Said Todd McFarlane, McFarlane Toys CEO and Creative Force. “Fans, collectors and kids alike can enjoy the new RAW10 world, upcoming online RAW10 comic series and collecting all the creatures.”
In the near future, the worlds of Super-Science and Primal Savagery have merged. Hidden away from prying eyes, the secret laboratories of RAW10 have created powerful warriors: part beast, part machine! But some have rebelled against their creator and have chosen to fight on the side of Humanity! Who will prove to be the strongest!
The first line of RAW10 toys features McFarlane’s classic and fan-favorite comic gorilla CY-GOR, and brand-new McFarlane designed monsters and creatures. McFarlane Toys RAW10 creature toy line is available exclusively at Walmart. The line is available for pre-order now at Walmart.com and coming to store shelves on August 1.
