More connected toy sightings
Early in the year I was saying we'd see more connected toys (see #5). I've noted a few on my radar and thought I'd call them out:
- Skylanders (Activision-Blizzard)
- Nukotoys
- Disney Appmates
In addition, Sifteos have started shipping and several people are doing iPhone connected robot/vehicle toys like what AR Drone did last year. Tankbot is one example, or here's a comparable kickstarter project which I'm supporting.
All of these are continuing what started a number of years back with Webkinz, UBFunkeys and others, as I discussed here and here.
Will be interesting to watch this space.
