I can't disagree more with you over TMNT being the hot item of the year. I'm someone who is personally sitting on three cases of figures, two cases of vehicles, once case of playsets, and several Classic rendition figures and Exclusive Night Shadow Leo's. I (and many others) can tell you without a doubt that this line may be selling out (occassionally) in stores, but that's as far as it's going. Sellers like myself are having an increasingly difficult times selling these online.

So as far as being the "hot" item of the holiday, no way. If that were the case, people selling online would be making fists full of cash because people would be climbing over each other to get them - Much like they were for Tickle Me Elmo.

Skylanders on the other hand...Yeah, those are huge.
