Hatchimals (toyline)

Hatchimals is a line of robotic toys produced by Spin Master. The flagship toys feature a robotic creature—representing one of various species—that "hatch" themselves from an egg.

After their initial release in October 2016, the toys faced an unexpectedly high demand. Media outlets expected them to be the top seller of the holiday season, leading to raffles and waiting lists over the limited stock, and comparisons to other major toy phenomenons such as Cabbage Patch Kids and Tickle Me Elmo
