This Season's Hottest Toys!

Every Christmas, there are toys that transcend the title of gift and elevate themselves to must-have cultural icons. From Tickle-Me-Elmo to Furby, these toys have caught the fancy of society and for a few glorious weeks have sold at many times their actual value. But unlike most embarrassing displays of unfettered greed and gluttony, this is not only an American phenomenon. TDS has compiled a list of the most sought-after toys from around the world:

Canada - Harry Potter and the Socialist Tundra
Mexico - Hasbro Border Buster
Iraq - Martyrn' Max's Wacky Mujahedeen
United States- Unilateral Barbie
Germany - Nerf Coalition Blaster
North Korea - Photo of Dear Leader and 4 oz. uncooked rice
Russia - My First Dirt Farm
France - Tickle Me Kofi
England- Nintendo Game Lad

Happy Holidays!
