New York Toy Fair 2021 Delayed to May

It was announced a few days ago that the New York Toy Fair for 2021 has been pushed back to May. It was supposed to be in February but due to uncertain times of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Toy Association thought it was best to delay the event for a few more months.

New York Toy Fair is usually the time when we see some of the new LEGO sets for the upcoming summer. LEGO changed that last year as we didn’t really see much new products but only for a select few. With everything that’s been going on, I have a feeling that LEGO will do something similar and possibly doing their own reveals due to the shifted timeline.
