It seems it’s never too early for predicting the most likely best-selling toys for Christmas. As one of the largest and most famous toy shops in the world Hamley’s are not short of ideas on what will be hot products this year. Their love of toys brings a world of joy and wonder into children’s lives and never more so than at Christmas. So it should come as no surprise that it was back in June that they created Hamley’s Top Toy Lists for Christmas.
In addition to Hamley’s pick of the best toys for 2011 this year they’ve put together a list of traditional toys and games plus top film and TV inspired toys. These include such as Dr Who Build Your Own Screwdriver, Cars 2 RC Lightning McQueen, Justin Bieber Singing doll and Dance Star Mickey.
Traditional toys are expected to still hold favour with families and include the Chester Rocking Horse, Blow Football, Star Wars Millennium Falcon, Monopoly and Risk Nostalgia Editions. For a peek at some of the toys on Hamley’s “finest” there’s Dr Who Ride-in-Dalek, Air Swimmers, AppBlaster, Sylvanian Families Highlands Farm and the must-have Fijit Friend from Mattel.
