I know there are a lot of people out there who just look for deals. But for me, it is so much more than that…. and if you can dive a little deeper you can actually figure out what is going to happen before it does. That gives me a leg up knowing about deals and being ready for them… and gives me advanced notice to help get it posted for all of you so you can snag the deal too!
Each year, there are always a bunch of super popular toys for Christmas. You know, the ones that go in and out of stock all season long and you are praying that you actually get your hands on one? The toys that make you pay double or triple price off eBay because it is the only thing your kid has on their Christmas list?
To alleviate that problem. I am going to share a few of my predictions for the HOTTEST Christmas Toys for 2014 and why I think they will be. The best part is that some of these toys are actually available now. Your kids just don’t know they want them yet… but they will. (I’ll explain later.)
#1 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle Toys:
WHY? On August 8th, Paramount is releasing a re-done Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Movie in theaters. The previews looks awesome, the graphics are amazing and your kids are going to freak out (or already are) when they see the previews. If you are older, you will remember the old Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie from the 90’s. It was awesome and kids back then loved it too!
Boys have not had a movie come out in a long time that is “their” movie. Little boys and older boys are going to think this is a super cool movie and yep, they will want the toys associated with it for Christmas.
If you didn’t know, there are already a lot of TMNT toys that have been released and are for sale at places like Amazon and Walmart. But what happens as soon as the movie releases? Kids start saying they want TMNT toys for Christmas and the toys start selling out. Between now and Christmas, NEW TMNT toys will release too–and those will be just as popular. Build A Bear even has Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles now that you can build in-store!
- TMNT LEGO Sets (I think these will be huge)
- TMNT Combat Gear
- And the Actual TMNT Action Figures (These are already going in and out of stock)
#2 Frozen:
This is probably a given. But I had to mention it again. Every little girl who loves Frozen is going to want one of the Anna or Elsa dolls that keep going in and out of stock. I know all of you have said on FB how hard they have been to purchase. I know the demand and availability is finally catching up. So hopefully those dolls will be easier to get. But don’t get too excited… Guess what other Frozen products are set to release this Fall?
- Frozen’s Snow Glow Elsa doll (Available for Pre-Order)
- Crystal Kingdom Vanity set
- Anna and Elsa Animator Collection Set (Available in Fall only at The Disney Store)
- Anna and Elsa Ice Skating Set
- Olaf Costume
- Olaf Mr. Potato Head Set
- Olaf Sno Cone Maker
- Cool Tunes Sing-Along Boombox
#3 Disney Princess LEGO Sets (NON-Duplo) Ages 6-12
This is the first time Disney has released Disney Princess LEGO sets that are non-Duplo. That means they are more intricate and meant for older girls 5- 12 years of age. Your older girls are gonna love them. And guess what? They are already available on Amazon to purchase now. These are sets I believe we might have a hard time getting our hands on the closer we get to Christmas. (Just like the LEGO Friends sets that sold out last year.)
Like I said, these are my predictions so far. Once I see more news releases and product releases I will be able to add a few more to this list. Stay Tuned!!

what is the Frozen toy set called that is in the middle of the main picture?
Melea Johnson
It’s the Anna and Elsa Animator Collection Set (Available in Fall only at The Disney Store) and will be $99. Not cheap.. but it is more for older kids or those who collect. 🙂

For those looking- Disney legos are everywhere…Target online and in store, Toys R Us has a big sale this week, but they have a higher price point. These have been out since last year 🙂 We’ve loved them!

Kara

I am also wondering what the toy is called in the bottom right picture. Looks like the mini Anna and Elsa dolls that you can dress up.
Melea Johnson
Yes that is the same one the other reader asked about. It’s the Animator Collector Dolls.. they are $99 for the set. They will be available in Fall on the Disney Store’s Website.

Also if you could possibly add to the list the Elsa Dress Up. I would love to know if you find this at an awesome deal!
Maria Bailey
I would add Amazing Zhus to the list. Remember when moms stood in line for days for Zhu Zhu Pets? Well Cepia is back this year with Zhu Zhu on steriods.
