“We've got some new technologies going. We've got a fantastic Buzz Lightyear. And what's different about him is that there is vaporiser steam that comes out of his jetpack. // We also have a new remote control car that does different kind of speeds. It jumps, it flips, it jumps higher than any other toy that we've had before. // We've also got some iconic things. We've got the Play-Doh car, which is absolutely fantastic. So you can make your own ice cream.”

“So the toys are all kind of investment worthy pieces, and we really want to kind of focus on that. And these are just our recommendations for top ten toys that we think children want to see on the tree. And we wanted children to and parents invest in products that they can see their children playing with, you know, kind of going forward.”
