Playmates shows off new Ben 10 reboot toys at Toy Fair!

Some time ago, Playmates has announced that they will be the new toy distributors for the Ben 10 reboot. At the New York Toyfair. They have quite the line up for the Ben 10 toys in 2017, with two waves confirmed to be released by the end of the year. Check out some images below!
First off we have the basic figures for all ten (well technically nine...) of Ben's aliens. Each one will come with a special accessory that corresponds with their abilities, which means there won't be any gimmick minifigure to be used with an Omnitrix toy like Bandai of America did with their toyline. Playmates had also added translucent parts to some of the aliens, like Diamondhead's skin, Heatblast's flames and Stinkfly's wings.

They broke the Bandai tradition of giving Ben a hoverboard as an accessory, instead, they gave Ben a Grey Matter minigure, as he is the smallest alien in the series. Another plus for Playmates is that they make full use of the characters' designs to give them articulation, unlike Bandai which would give a character about five points of articulation. But a flaw that is common with Playmates is that their figures don't have the best paint jobs. Some are miscolored, others are messy and some are not even there, like on the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2012 toys.

FUSIONS RETURN IN RIDING OUT THE STORM

The CN Asia website has revealed the upcoming Ben 10 2016 episode, Riding the Storm Out, however it's in Mandarin: http://www.cartoonnetworkasia.com/video/riding-the-storm-out

Ben basically used a super tool to try and hack the Omnitrix, however he accidentally created fusions of his aliens. Only two aliens were showcased, Grey Arms and an alien I dub "Super Fusion".

Grey Arms is a fusion between Grey Matter and Four Arms. He didn't showcased any abilites, as he gets shot down very easily before Gwen has to carry him away.
