Mattel logo

The boys market (4 years and over) was worth £680m in the 12 months to June 2006 which represents no less than a third of the total traditional toy market. Action Figures, Vehicles, Building sets and Outdoor/Sports represent the back bone of the boys offering. 2006 is proving a good vintage so far (+5% for the first six months) after a very strong 2005 boosted by Star Wars. This year’s summer blockbusters have also been successful with Cars (Disney/Mattel) taking the lead over Pirates of the Caribbean II (Disney/Vivid Imaginations) and Superman (Warner/Mattel). TV properties were also dynamic with the return of Doctor Who (series 2) which boosted Character Option’s share in the market and likewise a come back from WWE (Vivid Imaginations) currently enjoying a 70% growth over last year; but the number one position still remains with Power Rangers (Bandai) once more!
