New York Toy Fair

Every year there is a toy fair held in New York City at the Jacob J. Javits Convention Center. There were about 20,000 attendees this year in 2009. The photo above is an example of one of the many toy designs showcased at this event. This event is both fun for children and interesting for those of us who are a little bit older. It is fun to see how there are still such conventional toys that have been around forever, such as Lego's, but also new designs. There were toys so simple as clay figures to things so extravagant as the toy Lamborgini pictured above that is bedazzled entirely in Swarovski crystal.
