"There's no way people can guess what's coming. We do get to push genre a little bit. I'm super excited about some of the ones that are coming up. There are a few that are just fantastic. I think everyone's going to nerd out because we get to push. And one of them's going to sell a lot of toys. I can say that. One of them for sure is going to sell a ton of toys! But I can't say anything else other than that! They're all good. There's one that revisits characters from a Season 1 episode, but I won't say which. But there is one that there's some continuation a little bit. And that one's turning out to be quite hilarious and we do love it."
