They Weren’t Playing…3 Must-Have Christmas Toys that Sparked a Frenzy!
Episode 165
Tuesday, 17 December, 2024

Ah, Christmas… the time for peace, goodwill– and for those caught up in one of the famous must-have toy crazes– store brawls and price-gouging! In this fun, nostalgic episode we revisit 3 notable toy crazes– one from the 80s, one from the 90s, and one from the 2010s. Which toy sparked so many riots, some stores started having shipments delivered by armored truck? How did a popular talk show host play a key role in starting the frenzy for another must-have toy? And what controversy arose AFTER some lucky children opened their dream toy on Christmas Day? Find out which 3 toys we chose to feature, and hear all the juicy details when we unwrap the frenzy surrounding them!
