September Peeks
Day in and day out, we here at TDmonthly see toys on the Internet and in our office. We generally like most that we see. On occasion, we see a few that we think have potential to be big sellers. So far this month, those toys would be the following:
Fancy Pals Dress Ups are outfits for the 8" Mini-Flopsies animals. Each of the four outfit themes (including Hip and Glamour) feature three styles. Aurora will offer new outfits several times per year. Parents and kids can choose from boas and dresses to hats and sweaters for their plush pets. There are even jogging clothes, soccer garb and a cheerleading set complete with pom-poms. Each Dress Up is packaged in a sturdy, clear carrying case, with an illustrated backer showing the existing Fancy Pals Dress Up collection. Fancy Pal Dress Ups and animals sold separately.

These soft, floppy, plush 8" animals are nearly as cute as the real things — and a lot quieter while playing dress-up. Mini Flopsies are the latest incarnation of fashion dolls: Various Fancy Pals Dress Up outfits are separately available. Outfit themes range from Hip to Soccer, so no cat will be bored by wearing the same dress day after day. Button eyes and nose and an embroidered mouth give the Flopsies personality and expression. This kitty´s ears are even authentically lined with soft pink. More than 70 designs of Mini Flopsies are available, including animals from the sea, jungle, forest and farm as well as special holiday versions. Each of the bean-filled Mini Flopsies stands on its own and is double-bagged for durability and safety. Fancy Pal Dress Ups sold separately. ToyDirectory Product ID#: 4528 (added 9/9/2005) . TD

This fantasy beast means business. The posable 3¾” tall hard vinyl unicorn comes with four interchangeable horns (classic spiral, chrome, glow and pearlescent) and three soft vinyl malefactors — a mime, a new age hippy and a businessman/boss. All three figures have unicorn-horn-sized holes in their chests where the unicorn can stick it to them. ToyDirectory Product ID#: 4529 (added 9/9/2005) . TD

According to one retailer who spoke with TDmonthly Magazine, rather than being frightened by these bunnies with saber teeth, kids love them. These slippers are a nice, passive way for Mom and Dad to entertain their kids, while getting a good munching massage from the rabbit´s mouth. One little girl won´t even let her Mom leave the bedroom without them. And if the kids demand their own long-toothed hare-y friends, Toy Vault also makes a plush Killer Rabbit toy.
