Can you believe Christmas 2017 is just 10 weeks away?!? Here are the Top 11 Most Wished For Toys for this Holiday season. Remember the Hatchimals craze from last year (2016)? Or Pie Face from 2015? This is THAT list for 2017! I have been obsessively tracking these toys and alerting you guys when they become available. Some on the list usually sell out fast once they become available.
Many of these toys are sold out but stores are replenishing. Keep a look out for these in stores and online. I’ve included links to all the stores that carry each toy.
What’s on your kiddo’s Most Wished For Toy List this year?
Pssst…. FYI: I’ll also be Giving Away many of these toys (that I was able to score) back to you guys on this blog and my Facebook page. (Stay tuned!)
1. Super NES Classic Edition:
There’s a new pocket-sized version pre-loaded with 21 of the all-time greatest games! Just plug it in and play. It’s currently being sold for $79.99. My husband and I lined up outside on opening day to score some. Target has since done a second shipment of them. Hopefully a few more shipments will come in before Christmas.
2. L.O.L Big Surprise:
The L.O.L. Surprise! Big Surprise is a limited edition toy that contains 50 layers of surprise for the ultimate unboxing experience. Each case contains 50 limited edition surprise inside, including 2 dolls and accessories. There are multiple layers in this Surprise Ball which, when opened, reveal a new surprise. The last layer contains a doll with a unique outfit and personality. The ball later becomes a purse carrying case, storage case and bath playset! Its retail price is $69.99.
3. Fingerlings:

If you haven’t seen them in action, you have to watch this video. They come in a variety of colors. Their retail price starts from $14.84.
Additionally, ToysRUS also has an Exclusive Unicorn variety – Fingerlings Baby Unicorn for $14.99.
4. Luvabella Doll:
The Luvabella or the Luvabeau Doll (boy version) is the most interactive doll ever made. She moves, talks, interacts and plays like a real baby. I was curious why this doll had such a high starting price until I looked into it and understood why. The doll has amazing reviews from parents for how interactive it is.
You can teach her to speak (from Babble to over 100 words). She plays peek-a-boo when you cover her eyes and giggles if you tickle her tummy. The doll sleeps, plays with toys, takes a bottle/pacifier, moves arms, neck and face and even blinks! Plus, it can say things unexpectedly and you can even hear its heartbeat – crazy! Prices range from $99.99 up to $198.99. We were able to score some at Target a few weeks ago using the toy coupon for $79.
5. Hatchimals Surprise:
Hatchimals are adorable collectible creatures that come inside small, speckled eggs which need your help to hatch! This time, the Hatchimals Surprise come in a larger egg and allows you to hatch two collectibles – twin Hatchimals! These can learn new things at each stage – talk, dance, sing, tell jokes, play games and more! They even interact with each other, just like siblings. Retailers also carry special edition exclusive varieties such as “Zuffin”, the Walmart Exclusive and “Ligull”, the Target Exclusive. Price from $54.99 to $69.99.
Additionally, the Hatchimals Colleggtibles are also very popular (my kids love them!). They are tiny eggs with a small toy inside. With over 70 Colleggtibles to collect, they would make cute stocking stuffers.
6. Tamagotchi:
Whoa! Talk about a flashback from the past! I remember these from when I was in high school…20 years ago! lol. Yes, this year marks the 20th Anniversary of Tamagotchi in the United States. Tamagotchi is a digital pet you need to feed, clean up after and take care of – just like you would do with a real live pet! Retail price is $14.99 and it’s sold out everywhere!
