Toy sales for boys aged five and over amounted to £626m in the last 12 months to June 2005 or 30% of the total toy business. The most popular category is Action Figures with the likes of Power Rangers or Star Wars taking the lion’s shares. In the first six months of 2005, toy sales to boys have increased by 18% (!), strongly boosted by the summer’s blockbusters (Star Wars, Batman and Fantastic Four). At some stage, Star Wars was taking over 55% of the Action Figures category, making these results unprecedented in the UK and much bigger than Pokemon had ever been. The end of the year is expected to reveal a new strong playground craze in the shape of B-Daman (Hasbro) which will compete with other hot licenses such as Simpsons, Batman and vehicles brands, all with strong innovation.
