Toy Fair preview: Golden Bear

The Toy Fair will be here in just a couple of weeks. Over the next few days we’ll be looking ahead to the big event by previewing some of the new lines that are on their way. We’ll kick things off with a look at a couple of the highlights on their way from Golden Bear.

Topping Golden Bear’s slate of new products for 2009 will be a new In the Night Garden nursery collection, aimed at babies from 6–18 months. Igglepiggle, Upsy Daisy and the rest of the gang will liven up teethers, travel toys and activity toys. Watch out for the Igglepiggle Tinkle Chimes, the Tombliboos Twist and Play Toys and the ITNG Travel Mobile.

The My First JCB range will be extended, with Mini JCB Pull Backs joining the line-up in the familiar Joey JCB, Larry Loadall, Doug Dumptruck and Rex Roller characters. There will also be new characters, including Freddie Fast Track, Elvis Excavator and Talking Max (billed as the fastest diesel car in the world!)

We’ll have more news from Golden Bear after the Toy Fair…
