Walking the Toy Aisle

By Ashley Brooke, Kewpie83 @KewpieDoll83

My mom and I recently took a walk through Toys R Us.  Here’s what we saw while ‘Walking the Toy Aisle‘!

Fun and Colorful

Secret Door

I love the look of this Barbie and the Secret Door doll.  It reminds me of the lemon head Kelly’s from the early 2000’s.

Usually, Barbie is on this least for less than positive reasons.  However, I think Barbie‘s have been slowly getting prettier of the past year.  Their faces are becoming less inflated and their make up is looking much better. There are still some scary ones, but Mattel’s design team is going in the right direction.

Color me shocked– Mystixx are still going strong.  Here’s a look at the Rococo Zombie’s line.

Pony Mania has taken over the Pony aisle!  As Zecora is one of my favorite My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic characters, it’s not super shocking she’s one of my favorite Equestria Girls!

Not only were there new Equestria Girls, but there were a lot of new Pony Mania ponies in usual size.

So this is not a toy, but how cool is this kid friendly Mario Kart?

Heads up, I picked up a Yuki Kimono Lalaloopsy for $15.00 today at Toys R Us, so if you’re in the market for one, you may want to stop in this week! Have you seen anything new, awe inspiring or just plain wacky in the toy aisles?  Share your thoughts below!
