The annual New York Toy Fair offers a preview of new and innovative toys from big name brands like Hasbro, Lego and Mattel, and smaller toy vendors. More than 1,000 exhibitors flocked to New York City to show their wares and tempt distributors this year. In 2017, kids went crazy for Fingerlings, FurReal Pets and L.O.L. Surprise, all of which made an appearance at Toy Fair. Here are some of the newest toys that could be a big hit with kids this holiday season.

Star Wars Ultimate Co-Pilot Chewie

Hasbro

Part of Hasbro's FurReal Friends line, this 16-inch Chewbacca toy has more than 100 motions and sounds, most notably his iconic Chewie roar. In addition to Chewie, Hasbro debuted Ricky, the trick-loving pup. The toy retails for the same price as Chewbacca and can do a number of "tricks" including flipping a bone and shaking its paw. In the fall, the company will also release Rock-a-too, a pet bird that has a number of spoken interactions, which will retail for $79.99.

Think & Learn Rocktopus

Fisher-Price

Price: $59.99 Mattel's Think & Learn Rocktopus brings math and music together for children between the ages of three and six.

Pomsies

Funko Pop!

The company is launching a number of Disney cartoon properties this year, like "Hercules," and continues to add to its line of "Marvel" pops.

L.O.L. Surprise

MGA Entertainment

Price: $6.99 and up MGA Entertainment won a Toy of the Year Award for L.O.L. Surprise in 2017 and is not slowing down. The company announced at Toy Fair that it is launching its first-ever male character, Punk Boi, to the highly sought after collectible. Half the fun of buying an L.O.L Surprise is opening it. The dome-shaped case is filled with a doll and several accessories that are each hidden under a layer of plastic. Each time you peel back a layer, you get another surprise. There are thousands of YouTube videos dedicated to these "unboxings" with millions of views. Adding new characters, especially rare ones like Punk Boi, will only add to the appeal of the brand.

Kamigami Robots

Mattel

Hasbro

Price: $199.99 Nerf's newest line of toy weapons don't use traditional darts, it uses round ones. The Rival series, which features toys that look more like paintball guns rather than traditional Nerf guns, is the brand's foray into more sophisticated and competition-ready toy guns. The Prometheus holds a whopping 200 high-impact foam balls in an easy-to-load hopper. Motorized and rechargeable this battle behemoth can shoot eight rounds per second.

Hot Wheels Augmoto Augmented Reality Racing

Mattel

Price: $119.99 Hot Wheels Augmoto combines physical toy car racing with augmented reality.
