Hot Ticket Toys This Holiday
So recently I got a temporary second job at Toys R Us as a seasonal just to make some extra cash and because I get to chill with toys since im such a big kid at heart lol.
Anyways, working there I've wondered what the hot ticket items this holiday were and from many of the adults asking for toys this Christmas and holiday for their children, this is what I believe to be the hot items. 1) Nerf N-Strike Vulcan EBF-25 Blaster Lots of dads have been asking for this and mothers. This is starting to become sold out in most places. It's very popular this year and I think it's probably one of the most coolest and most badass nerf guns I've ever seen / produced. It's fully automatic and shoots 25 darts. Fun stuff. *edit* I think this pic is so funny XD 2) Plush I-dogs Hooks to your ipod or play music from external speakers and they light up and bob their heads to the music. These are sold out in many places and are hard to find and seem to be asked by lots of mothers. A lot of people are selling them on ebay and amazon at higher retail value. 3) EyeClops Night Vision Infrared Stealth Goggles I've tried these and they're pretty tight. You can see in complete darkness. Another product many mothers and dads have been asking for. Supposedly this has real night vision technology in it at a very cheap price. 4)Razor Electric Scooters This is sold out at my store. A lot of people have been asking for this. It's expensive IMO. The overall design though looks very sleek and looks much better than older editions. 5) Nintendo Wii Again, the ninendo wii is popular this season. We had 10 yesterday and sold out today. I was like... WTF?!? lol.. but yeah.. very popular. I have one myself but hardly play. It's a kids console IMO. 6) Wall-E & Eve These have been flying off the shelves like hotcakes. If I was a kid, I'd want one. They look really cool in person, just like the movie.. which I liked very much by the way lol. It was cute. So these are the hot ticket items which I believe are very popular this year. If I had to add a 7th, it'd be the ipod but I don't consider that a toy / game. This are the items I've been asked for all week. Just my 2 cents. Sorry for any spelling errors. XD

I'm just giving the examples of what I think are the most popular based on what people been wanting and asking for all week at toys r us. ^^
For little kids, I'd say geotraxx toys and the leapfrog / vtech products are very popular as well.

Same here, I LOVE LEGOS! he he... Although i think the creativity of legos today are weak because they involve no imagination at all. You just build whats on the box and many of the shapes are premolded for u. Back then I'd take a bunch of random legos and build the craziest things like spaceships, boats, or whatever.
Boardgame wise, Cranium Whoonu is pretty popular. And any Webkinz plushy is very popular with little children. They're these cute stuff animals... i guess? lol... cute to kids atleast. Oh, and Littlest Pet Shop is pretty popular with the young girls. ^^ Crazy how the economy is bad but toys are flying off shelves. I talked to this one lady and she said something like you can cut back on everything else but not on the kids and that kids can't worry bout the economy, that's not something that's on their mind(s).

Yes, we have a billion WebKinz floating around here...
I'm sure she'll get a few more this Christmas.
