Continuing my run through, next on our list of this year's Toy Fair stars is Spinmaster. Once again, Spinmaster look like having a superb year, and there was plenty to love on their stand at Olympia this time around.
Bakugan continues its march towards global domination with Gundalian Invaders - new in the UK this year is a particularly impressive kit - Dragonoid Colossus - every bit as huge as the name suggests and I'm betting it'll be scarce. Other Spinmaster favourites, Tech Deck and Flick Trix have good offerings too, and Mighty Beanz landing a Cars 2 license looks promising.
Arts & Crafts continue to be a strong area too, but most of all I'm looking out for Zoobles being big. "Bakugan for Girls" is an easy throwaway line, but the pets that 'spring to life' look fantastic. I can see them being this year's biggest craze of all, depsite some tough competition.
