Any thoughts on what might be hot toys this year. I recently saw a few things on TV, one being Fijits that I could see being popular this year.

[jellybean051901]

You can see them on www.fijitfriends.com

[momof3luvs1]

Usually around September I think the lists srat coming out if I remember correctly? Im not sure what will be hot this year...but hopefully I will be able to get anything earlty that the kids really want!

[tinkrbel]

Not sure haven't seen anything new really but I think the Monster High dolls will be part of Targets BF in July sales next week.

Fijits are going to be very popular. I am looking for hot boy toys . If you guys hear of the hot toys, please let me know! Would like to get started early so I am not looking for a hot toy from Sept.-Dec. Thanks!!

[nicole20]

Maybe its just me but I dont get the Fijits. I always so something seems so silly and that I am not going to buy that, then sure enough my kids want it and i end up paying for it lol!

[tinkrbel]

For whatever reason the only lists I'm finding are from the UK and the toys seem old/unfamiliar to me. I don't see bob the builder being huge these days Fijits seem pricey and not all that interesting unless you're a girl in the exact right age group/mind frame.

I havent really seen anything new. My dd wants koo birds. I guess you get them at TRU only.

[rjncmj]

I've heard that Lalaloopsy will still be VERY popular this year, as well as MH dolls, and then the Fijits also.

Spy Net Toys and Hexbugs

maybe beyblades and fancy nancy ??

[tinkrbel]

there's fancy nancy stuff out there? I may be santa clause for one lil girl this xmas if that's true I bought the hole outfit set from target toy clearance last year and never found it until after last xmas and her bday past this year.

[momof3luvs1]

Im not sure what will be the hot toys but I know my youngest dd is already asking for Fancy Nancy, The new my little pony line, Fijits, lalaloopsy, and those new bjzu(spelling?) things...n I think alot of her friends are on the same page with wanting those toys.

[tinkrbel]

bjzu? What is it/does it do? I can only think of the zhu zhu pet hamster thinks, is that what you're thinking of?

They are not zhu zhus. They are jewelry that can be transformed into a animal looking figurine ( back and forth)

Oh wow, these do look like fun Bizu. You might be onto a winner there

Yes, i have seen a few fancy nancy things at walmart already.

[beck6100]

Amazon had some good last minute deals last yr on fancy Nancy stuff. Put the stuff u want in r cart n kept checking the prices. Also target has alot if her line.

[nicole20]

my DS loves bey blades...and those bjzu bracelets look so neat. My DD is such a girly girl she will want those for sure!

[Rose0426]

LeapFrog LeapPad Explorer. My grandson got the explorer last year for christmas and loves it. I know he will want this, this year.

[peppysfireball]

My granddaughters are only interested in Monster High stuff at this time. There are a bunch of new ones out there and I admit I've gotten addicted with them. I read all that vampire stuff and it's really getting huge.

[tinkrbel]

looks like rock star mickey and let's rock elmo are coming out in September, maybe they'll be hits? I have high hopes for Elmo last Mickey didn't go very well.

[jellybean051901]

Saw the bizu toys on TRU and DD7 loved them. DD2 wants lets rock elmo.

[beck6100]

My girls didn't even want to look at the bizu..

[momof3luvs1]

I actually bought my youngest dd a bizu today and she loved it..If they last then I will pick up more for her for CHristmas.

LeapPad Explorer and VTech InnoTab look like they will be great for the pre-school and early elementary age group...a lot cheaper than an iPad! I love the bizu toys mentioned above in this thread...I think my tween daughter will really like them, as well as my 6 year old!

[mom8w]

I was going to mention, as well, that I just saw a price drop this week on Nintendo 3DS (to about $169)...seems like the other handhelds by Nintendo might get some price adjustments before the holidays, or show up in the BF ads as doorbusters. I first stumbled across Gotta Deal when the Game Boy micro's were 39.xx as doorbusters, in 2006, as the DS was coming out. The bigger gameboy consoles were also doorbusters in that time frame, I think.

I think these will be VERY popular this year. I saw the InnoTab a couple weeks ago while browsing walmart.com, but just searched the LeapPad from you mentioning it. I really lke the LeapPad! I'm leaning towards that moreso than the InnoTab for my dd3, who will be a little over 3 1/2 years old on Christmas.
