£30 'fart blaster' stars on budget-friendly Christmas toy chart
The Guardian
|November 13, 2024
A "fart blaster" with a repertoire of 15 sounds that blasts "fog fart rings," and a waddling mother duck are among the toys destined to appear on Christmas lists as experts predict a "record-breaking" year for sales.
At £30, the Despicable Me 4 spin-off toy promises to be a talking point on Christmas Day. It comes complete with two scents: banana and "fart". Mercifully the latter smells more like burned popcorn.
With the cost of living crisis in the background of yet another year's celebrations, the Toy Retailers Association's annual Dream Toys list of the 20 "hottest toys" includes 14 under £50. Compiled by an independent panel, it provides a crib sheet for shoppers seeking both value for money and play value.
