So, Reaction Super 7 RoboCop figures. Sold!
Also, the Iron Maiden ones. Think I've seen those before.

I noticed some half way decent looking DC figures from a company called Hiya, but then realized they're 3.75 inch. Some of the Marvel Legends on show were nice. The 80th anniversary wave has some cool traditional looking figures. The Thor in that is really good.

MacFarlane Toys announced they acquired the "6 inch super posable" license for DC.
It sounds like they have the "adult collector" license, for DCU Classics/Marvel Legends styled figures, while Spinmasters has the license for the "kid toys" action figures. At least, that's how it reads to me.
Fantastic. Because no one sucks the fun out of toys like MacFarlane.
So likely ends my collecting figures for my favorite comic universe.
I'd had some hopes that Spinmasters was gonna pull something to impress me, with a continuation of Multiverse the way Hasbro just continued Marvel Legends when Marvel moved from Toybiz to them. But now that has almost no chance of happening.

Were there examples of the Spinmaster figures at the show?

Not to my knowledge. Mattel still has the license ATM. Hasbro didn't start showing off their power rangers until Bandai was completely over.
But when licenses get split so specifically, it means one company can only make X-style toys, while the other can only make Y-styled toys.
