- Ok its starting to become that time of year where most everything is out for the holiday season and what will be the HOT and POPULAR items are either sitting on the shelves or the stores are already sold out and cannot keep it in stock. Chances are you have already not heard about it because people are not in the Christmas mode. The sellers are stocking up right about now and taking their positions on the top items for this season.
-I am thinking that the new Star Wars FX light sabers will be a huge hit this year. You can buy this item in a lot of different places but it seems stores do not carry a large stock on hand. The Red ones are even more rare than the Blue. I would love to buy 1 but I can't because I need to buy 2 one for me and my boy. I can't buy him one without me having one. This thing is really cool it is basically a miniature collectors one and made really good I think.
Every year there is at least 1 popular item from each category, usually a couple games, a doll, etc. Anyone else have an idea what else might be super popular?

I think these have been out for a couple years. I just found a super hot item this year. It will be the Angry Birds Knock on Wood game. Better buy it up while you can find it for Christmas.

Better buy it while you can. Looks like this one will be worth something. I see prices on ebay and amazon sellers are higher. Amazon has it in stock now for $148.99.

Anymore if you want something good for your kid you have to buy it like late September / early October. The latest is November before Thanksgiving. I try to do the shopping for the kids sooner than later.

WOW glued it? Yes once we build my son does love to play with it after we build Lego but I learned my lesson when he kept dropping them or crashing things together and a million pieces go everywhere and we have to rebuild it's worked out great and he plays then displays!
