The 2004 Toy Fair's Top 10 Strangest Products
Last week I visited the 2004 Toy Fair in NYC, which spanned the entire the Javitz Convention Center. It seemed under-attended (more exhibitors than shoppers), distanced (tobacco breath, bad hair, plaid), and just a tad angry (like being in Shakes-the-Clown land), which, I assume, was due to the economy. Not the best year for Amazing Live Sea Monkeys, Baby Einstein, or Color-a-Cookie. This article in Underground Online is a good summary of the pulse.
