The 2004 American International Toy Fair is from February 15th to 18th, 2004, and the Raving Toy Maniac will once again be covering the event, bringing you news and pictures of upcoming toys and action figures.

Some toy companies have very good coverage of their own products, so be sure to check their sites during Toy Fair, too! Sideshow Toy will be posting news during the show, as will Diamond Select. McFarlane Toys will not be exhibiting at Toy Fair, and have changed the way that they present information about new products.

Please note: many images presented from Toy Fair are prototypes and are not the final product, therefore the final product may vary from the images shown. All release dates are tentative and are subject to change.
