We invite you to explore the pages of the 1996 Hasbro Toy Fair Catalog with our high-definition scans. This catalog was handed out to retailers and other vendors. It helped the company promote its new toy selection and sign up vendors to sell their toys. It also gave some exclusive first looks at its upcoming toys from the year.
Following the release of Batman Forever in 1995, the 1996 Hasbro Toy Fair Catalog featured action figures based on the film. Unlike the previous two live-action films directed by Tim Burton, this movie had a more campy feel to the action. With neon lights and multiple gadgets, the movie allowed Hasbro to create a playful toy line.

Then, there was the 64165 Batman Forever Vehicle/Figure Assortment. This selection included action vehicles with special edition Batman figures. For instance, it featured the Recon Hunter Batman, which came with a missile-firing surveillance drone, and the Street Racer Batman, which included a missile-firing pursuit cycle.
The final listing on this page was the 64174 Batman Forever Power Armor Set. It was a role-playing set for exciting superhero adventures.

About Our Hasbro Toy Fair Catalog Scans
To promote their upcoming slate of products, Hasbro handed out catalogs to attendees of toy fairs and other events. Each catalog was filled with information about their newest toys, even ones still in development. Thus, they often provided the first looks at action figures, playsets, vehicles, and more from their lines. Therefore, they have become valuable and rare collector’s items.
These Hasbro Toy Fair Catalogs featured toys from their beloved lines. For instance, the company was responsible for one of the most popular action figures of all time: G.I. Joe. They also partnered with Takara to bring the Transformers to the Western market. The company also dipped into the fantastical worlds of Air Raiders, Inhumanoids, and Visionaries: Knights of the Magical Light. After Hasbro acquired Kenner, they also became the home of toy lines like Jurassic Park and Star Wars.
Hasbro used in-production prototypes in their images, as these catalogs were prepared before the lines were released. This meant that the featured toys often differed from the retail releases. Moreover, toys sometimes appeared only on these catalog pages, as they were canceled or never hit retail store shelves.
While Hasbro only handed these booklets out to trade professionals, we have now made them available to all. You can explore the toys featured in these catalogs with our Hasbro Toy Fair Catalog Scans. This is a rare treat since catalogs like these have become increasingly difficult to locate with each passing year.
