I went to Argos yesterday to get a few things for the house - their Christmas catalogue today is about the size of what their full catalogue was when I was a child! I took that plus the main catalogue home with me - I needed to carry it in a double plastic bag it was so big. Two inches thick, and a good 1500+ pages in length. Resting it on its edge on my lap whilst browsing it hurt - proof if ever if was needed that you now need to be a masochist to shop at Argos.
Anyway, here's the list:
- City Airport, Lego UK (£84.99)
- Fireman Sam Deluxe Fire Station Playset, Character Options (£29.99)
- FurReal Go Go Walking Pup, Hasbro (£59.99)
- Jet Pack Buzz Lightyear, Mattel UK (£39.99)
- Kidizoom VideoCam, VTech (£59.99)
- Monopoly Revolution, Hasbro (£29.99)
- Moon Dough Barn, Spinmaster Toys UK (£19.99)
- Nerf N Strike Stampede ECS, Hasbro (£54.99)
- Paper Jamz Guitar, Wow Wee Europe (£24.99)
- 'Pumpaloons' - action game, Drumond Park (£19.99)
- Sylvanian Families Motorcycle and Sidecar, Flair Leisure (£24.99)
- ZhuZhu Grooming Salon, Character Options (£22.99)
...although it's all Greek to me. The BBC have put up a slideshow so you can see how weird toys have become these days.
