The “Toy Hall of Fame” of The Strong Toy Museum in New York, USA selects classic toys with the imprint of the times every year. This year is no exception. After fierce voting and competition, 3 toys stood out from 12 candidate toys.
1. Masters of the Universe (Mattel)
Reason for selection: Master of the Universe is a classic animation IP product under Mattel with a history of 40 years. This series of toys incorporates superhero elements, allowing children to throw themselves into the role, with weapons and powers to save the world. Although after many years, Netflix’s animation of the same name adapted from the original work in 2021 is still very popular, and it has driven the sales of derivative dolls, proving that its charm can stand the test of time.
2. Light Up Puzzle Pins Lite Brite (Hasbro)
Reason for selection: This product was born in 1966. Based on the basic concept of mosaic drawing, it provides children with a space for creative creation. Moreover, this series of products has also followed the development of the times, and launched a variety of pattern suits, which radiate lasting vitality.
3. spinning top
Reason for selection: Spinning top is one of the oldest toys in the world, with a history of thousands of years. The modern improved fighting top makes children have to consider the influence of factors such as position, centrifugal force, and speed in the game, and use their hands and brains.
It is reported that the “Toy Hall of Fame” has been inducted since 1998. Except for the large number of inductees in the first two sessions, the number of products inducted in each subsequent year is between 2-3, which is very particular. To date, 80 products have been inducted into the Hall of Fame and are on display at The Strong Toy Museum.
We can also follow this year’s toy trend, and believe that everyone will eventually find their own market.
