Gloey Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 I have been putting off buying things and maybe I should start sooner. Do you think the My Little Pony Crystal Castle is going to be hot? Target doesn't even have it, nor does Meijers. So maybe I should run out now and not wait for sales? And what about Baby Alive? What is going to go fast?

Gloey Posted October 12, 2006 Author Share Posted October 12, 2006 Gloey, can I just say that your granddaughter is one very lucky little girl. I know, I know, I spoil her rotten but I waited a long long time for her and she's the little girl I never had. I sent DH to WalMart this morning to buy Baby Alive, we'll see how successful he was. But if I wait for her parents to get stuff, I know they will go at the last minute and things will be out of stock. BTW, DH doesn't know about half the stuff I've bought, he would freak out. My friend is hiding stuff at her house! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

natansyd Posted October 13, 2006 Share Posted October 13, 2006 Mickey Mouse Clubhouse will be very hot. It is already OOS at most online stores. Walmart seems to have them periodically. The actual clubhouse might be a bit easier to come by, but its the darn figures that go to it that seems to be extremely hard to find. Nintendo Wii is going to be crazy. I was lucky enough to get in on the Amazon preorder so hopefully Ill get one. I know you can preorder at Gamestop starting tomorrow (10/13). Im not sure about Baby Alive. Everywhere Ive been seems to have a ton. The price has come down on it the last few weeks as well. It used to be 59.99, then it was 49.99, and now its 39.99 with a bonus outfit. The Little Pony doll that is in a baby walker that really walks is sold out at alot of places. I had a hard time finding it for my 3 year old. The Diego Talking Rescue Center will probably be a big seller as well as the Littlest Pet Shop Biggest Shop. Some of the Barbie Twelve Dancing Princess stuff might be hard to come by. My girls want the triplet princesses that spin. They are the tiny ones. I cannot find them anywhere and cannot find them online other than ebay. Back to the Wii..I think only hard core gamers are going to buy the PS3 at launch. Its a hefty price for the casual gamer, I think. The Wii will probably be hotter b/c its more user friendly for casual gamers and the price is alot lower. Ive had my name on the Lik Sang preorder list since April and still havent got a confirmation that I will get one..and launch is only a few short weeks away. Hopefully between Lik Sang and Amazon, Ill get one for myself and Dh. If I happen to get both, then maybe Ill ebay one. I know way too much about toys, LOL! I have a 6 year old and 3 year old twins, so I try to stay current :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ellen zachariia Posted October 13, 2006 Share Posted October 13, 2006 Hi I would love some suggestions as to some hot toys for my 5 year old son. All he says he wants is game boy games and I would love to find him something else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kboyts Posted October 13, 2006 Share Posted October 13, 2006 Hi I would love some suggestions as to some hot toys for my 5 year old son. All he says he wants is game boy games and I would love to find him something else.If you or the DH are computer and internet savvy I would recomend getting the DS a flash cart for the gameboy. I personally got the "XG Flash2" for xmas last year. It is a rewritable game cartidge for the gameboy advance so you can download games from the internet, save them on the cartridge and then play them on your game boy ! best present I ever got !!! for a little more than the cost of one game you can have pretty much any games you want ! It will even let you download and play regular old school NES nintendo games on your gameboy. Ok enough sounding like a commercial for me LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinkroses4mommy Posted October 13, 2006 Share Posted October 13, 2006 If you are afraid that something will sell out, go ahead and buy it and just save your receipt. I've taken things back after I got a better deal on BF. And I'm not sure if they still do, but ToysRUs did price match for up to 30 days after a purchase. I went in on BF one year, went straight up to the service desk and took their sales flyer and wal-mart's, and they refunded the difference on everything I had bought there. It was about $80!! But I would check their policy on that before I planned to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ellen zachariia Posted October 14, 2006 Share Posted October 14, 2006 Thank you for all the advice. They are great suggestions however my DS just informed me that he cannot find his gameboy and we have turned our house upside down looking for it. So he is probally going to only want a new Gameboy. Any suggestions as to who has the best price on BF. Also do they put games on sale on BF I love this site!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is if he minds having a used one. Otherwise tell him your getting a used one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elena_398 Posted October 14, 2006 Share Posted October 14, 2006 I bought at Walmart (one left in the overhead, but Im 6' and readed it) the Lil Luvables Fluff Factory. Also out of the stock at my Walmart too. Its too cute. Comes with 3 bears you fill yourself. You can outfits, etc for it. Like build a bear, but a lot less expensive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

comm402 Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 I was looking in Walmart tonight and noticed that the Fisher Price Spark Easel was out of stock, I didn't see it at Target either. I'm not sure if its going to be sold out but I thought it was kind of early for it to already be out of stock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a 6 year old and 3 year old twins, so I try to stay current :) I was thinking the same thing about you. I haven't heard of half of the stuff you mentioned. But I guess it's probably because my kids are older, 10 and 16. As to what will sell out.... I have no idea. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sns128 Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 About the only thing flying off my shelves are the TMX Elmo and Tamagotchis. Other than that, my store has most of what has been mentioned here in stock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comm402 Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 I just took advantage of the Toys R Us offer for the free lanyard with the purchase of a Tamagochi and they had tons of them in stock. As for the Butterscotch pony I haven't even seen one yet. There is one other thing that I just thought of... there are no tickle me emlmos out there at all, not the original one or the giant one.

Gporter34 Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 I'm not sure what toys are going to be hot this year because my kids are sort of out of the "toy thing" but my MOTHER obviously isn't!LOL She wants me to find her one of those damned Elmo TMX things!

comm402 Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 We were in Toys R Us today and they had a huge standee for the Butterscotch Pony, so I guess that it is still out there, (at least here in NJ). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
funnymoney Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 I don't think the butterscotch pony will be released until November. They sure seem to be hyping it up, but with a $300 price tag, I guess they need to. Of course, I am begging my husband to let me buy one for our daughter!

comm402 Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 I'm sorry, the pony was not out yet but the standee had the pre-order tickets on it and it was full. Maybe the price is a little high for people. I wish that my youngest was still small enough for it, if she was I would be begging my husband too !

Grannyof3boys Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 My oldest grand son just turned 6 and he is crazy for the star wars transformers. I have not seen too many of they in the stores. My other grandkids want the Elmo TMX. This granny may have to work some kind of magic this year to get them. I did order some on ToysRUS but I heard they are not really in stock like the email I got that said they were. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
