The Toy Retailers Association (TRA) has announced it’s list of the top toys for Christmas.

The list is compiled from predictations from its members as to which will be the best-selling toys.

The TRA notes that fantasy elements are predicted to be strong in this years Christmas sales, and lists the key toys to watch as:

  • Baby born with magic eyes (Zapf) - RRP £39.99
  • Bratz Forever Diamondz assortment (Vivid) - RRP £24.95
  • Cars Fast Talkin’ Steve McQueen (Mattel) - RRP £39.99
  • Deal or No Deal electronic board game (Drummond Park) - RRP £29.99
  • Dr Who Cybermen Mask (Character Options) - RRP £29.99
  • Let’s Dance Barbie Doll (Mattel) - RRP £39.99
  • Paper FX (Flair) - RRP £19.99
  • Pixel Chix Mall (Mattel) - RRP £29.99
  • Tamagotchi Connexion V3 (Bandai) - RRP £12.99
  • Thomas the Tank Engine Aquadraw (Tomy) - RRP £29.99
  • Trivial Pursuit ’90’s (Hasbro) - RRP £29.99
  • V. Smile Baby (VTech) - RRP £39.99

So if you run an ecommerce store selling children’s toys you now have a better idea of what stock you may need to aim for. :)

In the meantime, continued threats of an interest rate rise may mean this Christmas offers less of a boom for retailers in general.

However, with ecommerce sites fast encroaching on sales marketshare from high street stores, it may yet be a bumper Merry Christmas for ecommerce store owners.
