Looking back over 2008, we see several cases of toys that capturing our imaginations, and our pocketbooks. They had names like Lego (usually followed by “Star Wars” or “Batman,” and names you may not be able to pronounce, much less play. Here’s the list of this year’s hottest toys for 2008:
Leading the pack is Bakugan Battle Brawlers. A very interesting idea. Think of it as YuGiOh meets marbles. You take these special spheres and roll them towards a thin, metallic battle card. When it rolls onto it, the sphere opens to reveal a monster ready for attack. And that’s as far as I can get in even coming close to understanding it. But kids are eating it up like a starving pet called to dinner. Cost for starter pack is around $15.00. Ages 5 and up.
Dora’s Magic Castle Doll House – The popular Nick Jr. explorer now has her own magic castle and is inviting you over to explore it. Take the Magic Wand and use it to open hidden doors, a secret revolving bookcase, even a magic mirror. There’s also a Treasure Chest which includes figures of Dora, Fairy Godmother Abuela & Magic Wand. Cost is a hefty $90.
Star Wars Action Figures (there’s a shock), particularly Commander Cody, Captain Rex, and Jedi Padwan Ashoka Tano. Light sabers, action figures, Star Wars. Need to know anything else? Cost is around $20-25. Wow. I remember action figures costing a buck! Ages 4 and above.
Girl Gourmet Cupcake Maker by Jakks Pacific. Think of it as a companion to the Easy Bake Oven. Once you have the cupcakes baked, use this contraption (Alton Brown would call it a uni-tasker) to decorate your cupcakes. Cost is about $15.00. Ages 8 and up.
