AJ Toy Figurines Coming in June!

Hey Jammers! By now you've probably heard all the juicy gossip about the new Animal Jam figurines hitting the stores in June of this year. Here are all of the photos uploaded to Clark Stacey's (AJ's CEO) Instagram account as of yet:
That panda is hands down the most adorable toy I've ever seen.
Here's what we know so far:

 • They're going to be made by Commonwealth Toy & Novelty, a toy manufacturer and marketer that's been in partnership with WildWorks since last year.

 • The outfit parts will be interchangeable, so you can dress the animals and pets up how you like.

 • Some animals will have secret patterns that shine under blacklight! It looks like the blacklight will be part of the figure in the form of a cool-looking ring.

 • The figurines were previewed at Toy Fair NY16.

 • As far as the pictures show, the figurines include animal characters, pets, pet houses, and accessories for both.

 • They probably won't be at McDonalds.

 • They're coming out officially in June!

 I wonder if they have anything to do with that Enchanted Earth toy series that we all went crazy about last year but then just... faded away. Or, maybe they didn't and I've been so out of it that I didn't know they were released? Either way, I haven't found pictures of the actual Enchanted Earth figurines anywhere online, so maybe these are it? Maybe? Or maybe Enchanted Earth was ditched for this? The world may never know. Until June.

 I'm as excited for these toys as anyone else, but I still have a few questions. For example, what material are they made out of? They look like vinyl, but I wanna be sure. Animal Jam is a game that generally promotes being kind to the environment, but mass-producing a lot of toys that will end up in landfills seems kind of... counterintuitive? I was hoping that maybe the toys would be made of something that wouldn't mess up the environment as much, but I'm not sure WildWorks has much control over it. Hmm...

 What do you think about AJ making toys? Are you excited? :D

 See you in Jamaa!

    That'd be cool if they eventually made every item (or most), because then you could have a figure of your animal! Same outfit as in the game :)

Heyyo! I love it when you guys comment. I'm always checking for more, so even if you comment on an older post I'll definitely see it and try to respond. :)

Before you comment, of course, here are some basic things to remember:

-Don't be mean on purpose.
-Keep the comments appropriate for all ages. This is an Animal Jam blog.
-No spam, please! That means no comments just saying "buddy me im animaljam123" or "hi", just add a little more than that.
-Rants/long comments totally encouraged! You don't have to apologize for a long comment, I love reading them xD

-*NEW!* Please be safe about the personal information you share here, and on the internet in general. Just like AJ's in-game safety guidelines, don't share your real name, photos of yourself, phone number, address, email, or age. Always turn to a trusted adult if you're unsure about something.

Pretty easy rules. Nothing to stress about. As long as you follow them, you can say whatever you want!

Thanks for reading! C(o.o)D

P.S. That's a bear emoticon up there. ^
