Summer's only just started but that doesn't mean you can't start looking forward to Christmas and its bounty of toys already. Argos revealed today what they predict will be on children's wishlists for this year's holiday season and it's quite a diverse range. Linzi Walker, Chief Toy Buyer for Argos, said this year's toys have "truly moved on, with more sophisticated tech, life-like functions and up-to-date pop culture references." Read more: Irish teachers will be getting some weird and wonderful gifts from pupils at the end of term Even now though, cross-generation toys such as NERF, LEGO and Star Wars continue to feature prominently in the wishlists for this year. And in a survey it was found parents think LEGO that can build itself is going to be a toy of the future.
LEGO is still a favorite amongst Irish parents with over a third saying they'd bring those back from their childhoods and play it with their kids. As predicted by Argos, here are the top toys for Christmas 2016: Who doesn't like apes? Well what about one that responds to voice commands? And also moves in a lifelike manner and can perform 100 tricks? Certainly cheaper than an actual chimp. With this set, LEGO enthusiasts can partake in all that bricky, volcano fun, complete with drone, excavator, 6 mini-figures and other accesories. The latest in foam bullets and garden warfare, this model of NERF comes with three ways to blast, ranging from the Elite Dart blaster, the MEGA Dart Barrel Extension and the Missle Launcher Stock, tailor-made to end all household peace and quiet. Digging that generational trench even deeper, this combination karaoke-mic-and-selfie-stick allows people, with the aid of an app, to record their own music videos. Try as anyone might, no one can resist a cute puppy.
Especially one that nods, has super-soft fur and has a tummy that moves as it breathes. A no-brainer for this holiday season, given how Star Wars has once again staked its claim on today's pop culture. No self-respecting fan would want their own version of the sci-fi franchise's latest adorable droid mascot. What's more ridiculous and awesome than being rescued by a Robopup piloting his own jet, complete with rotating propellers? It's a DOG piloting a JET. And it's the latest from those cheeky pups of Paw Patrol. VTech Toot Toot Drivers Goldmine VTech's latest trainset comes with a motorized engine, drop-chute and mine. The joys of mining without any of the pain. As everyone knows, doll enthusiasts demand realism in their products. This doll is not only weighted like a real baby but also comes with sleepy eyes, silky hair and the smell of an actual newborn. For those who'd rather swim in the glamorous side of dollhood, this Tiffany doll comes with a red carpet, dazzling accessories for strutting their stuff but also an extra outfit.
