Toy Fair’s Hero Toys
List Announced at Toy
Fair 2020
(London, UK) 21 January, 2020– The British Toy & Hobby Association today
announced the Toy Fair’s Hero Toys for 2020, with Character Options, LEGO,
and Spin Master amongst the winners.

The Toy Fair’s Hero Toys list consists of 25 products launched at Toy Fair,
which opened today at Olympia, London. They have been judged by an
independent panel of retailers, and the BTHA itself, to be the most exciting
and creative toys unveiled at the event.

All are due to be released over the next 12 months and between them they
cover a wide variety of price points, age ranges and play patterns. From
gooey superheroes to a flossing sloth, the list covers everything from major
licenses to eco-friendly plush toys.

“With hundreds of companies from all over the world, launching thousands
of new toys throughout the show, the competition to make the Toy Fair’s
Hero Toys list is fierce. Judging this year was harder than ever,” commented
Rebecca Deeming, Public Relations & Events Manager for the BTHA.

“The result, however, is a list packed with innovation, fun, and potentially
huge sellers for 2020. Together, they represent the best of our industry and
the benefits children of all ages get from playing with quality toys.”

Toy Fair visitors can see the winning 25 Hero Toys on display outside the
Press Office (stand Upper Level 320). The complete Toy Fair Hero List can
be found overleaf.
