Which toys will make it into the hallowed halls of toydom this November? Can Twister tie up a nomination? Or, will "the Force" be with Star Wars Action Figures? Twelve toy nominees are in contention for induction into the National Toy Hall of Fame. Winners will be announced at a ceremony held at The Strong on Thursday, November 15 at 10:30 a.m.

Meet the 2012 Toy Finalists

Clue board game

Clue has remained a top-selling board game since 1947 thanks to the witty way it invites players to deduce, from available evidence, a solution on the murder of the luckless Mr. Boddy, which occurs under different circumstances in each game.

Dominos

Dominoes originated in China and later appeared in Europe. A standard set of 28 dominoes represents all the possible results from rolling a pair of six-sided dice and allows for many different games. Dominoes also inspire creative construction play, often featuring placement so the dominoes will topple in a wave action.

Fisher-Price Corn Popper

The Fisher-Price Corn Popper push toy teaches toddlers about cause and effect and the predictability of their actions. As kids roll their wheeled poppers along the floor, the Corn Popper makes loud and engaging noises. Introduced in 1957, the Corn Popper has entertained several generations of tots.

Lite-Brite

Lite-Brite uses backlit plastic pegs on a black paper background for children to create glowing images, either following manufactured designs or on their own. The potential for open-ended creativity has kept Lite-Brite popular since 1967.

Little Green Army Men

Ever since the 1930s, little green army men have occupied territories, lands, and entire make-believe nations. Manufactured by the millions and molded with incredible detail, the plastic toy soldiers fueled kids’ imaginations, prompted their narratives, and encouraged their stories of daring and heroism.

Magic 8 Ball

For more than 60 years, Magic 8 Ball has entertained millions by letting them flirt harmlessly with fortune telling. The billiard-ball novelty made its debut in 1946 and has continued offering its standard 20 responses to a wide range of questions.

Pogo Stick

Patented in 1919, the pogo stick has remained popular because of a challenging design that forces the player to master balance while jumping. Although the pogo stick craze peaked in the 1920s, new technologies and materials have made the latest pogo sticks fun and exciting for today’s kids and adults.

Sidewalk Chalk

Beginning in the 16th century, itinerant artists in Europe used chalk to decorate public squares as part of town festivals. Since then, children have discovered that sidewalk chalk requires only a sunny day, an expanse of pavement, and an imagination to produce doodles, masterpieces, messages, and games such as hangman, tic-tac-toe, and hopscotch.

Simon

Ralph Baer created Simon in 1978. Easy to operate and friendly, Simon stood apart in the days of large and clunky electronic game systems. Even people with no computer experience played and enjoyed it.

Star Wars action figures

The phenomenal success of Star Wars action figures revolutionized the toy industry. Since the late 1970s, toys tied to successful movies, television series, comic books, and other popular entertainments have created a common culture that give kids a departure point for their own stories of make-believe and fantasy.

Tea Set

Tiny tea sets have been part of child’s play for the last three centuries, encouraging children to imitate the adult rituals, manners, and decorum of tea drinking. Along the way, children learn gender roles, poise, and social graces, and start to imagine their futures as adults.

Twister

Willpower and good luck accompanied the innovative dexterity game Twister. In 1966, some saw the game’s physical contact as risqué and Sears refused to stock it. However, Milton Bradley’s public relations firm plugged Twister to television giant Johnny Carson who played it on the air with the lovely Eva Gabor to his audience’s delight. Afterwards, stores couldn’t stock enough Twister.

I think most of these are mostly US games & toys. I heard of most of them but I only got to play with my fathers dominoes set when I was a kid. I had a twister set when I was a teenager, given to me by a cousin from US. Anybody else here have played with any of these? Any favorites?

I vote dominoes. Seems to keep some of the prison population happy, so that's a good thing.

Little green army men. That's what I used to learn how to shoot. After picking off those little guys with an old, beginners BB gun (one of the ones with the fat barrel that held about a 1/4 carton of BB's), hitting bullseye's with a real gun was a piece of cake.

Out of those toys, dominoes and army men are the only ones I used to play with.

Not on the list, is my personal favourite: the Major Matt Mason line of toys from the 1960s. I used to LOVE playing with them, and today I collect them at great expense.

ReclaimedMdT · 15th November 2012, 06:37

Telling me that The Transformers aren't in the National Toy Hall of Fame yet? C'mon,that's like telling AC/DC they don't belong in the Rock & Roll hall of fame. When I was kid if you didn't have a GI Joe during recess you should've had at least a couple Transformers in your backpack. If not you pretty much guaranteed a quick exile to the land of the kids who were eating paste and wiping their noses on their sleeves.

The Official 2012 National Toy Hall of Fame Inductees

Just announced moments ago...

By Associated Press,

ROCHESTER, N.Y. — Luke Skywalker and Princess Leia outmuscled little green army men for a spot in the National Toy Hall of Fame. “Star Wars” action figures join centuries-old dominoes in the class of 2012, which was announced by the Rochester hall Thursday.

A national selection committee chose them from among 12 finalists, plucking the most ancient and most modern toys from the list.

“Star Wars” action figures went on the market in 1978, following the 1977 release of the 20th Century Fox movie. The 3 3/4-inch figures of Han Solo, Chewbacca, R2-D2 and company were sold until 1985 and again from the mid-1990s to today.

Museum officials say their phenomenal popularity inspired other toy makers to tie their products to movies and television series and they note the toys’ appeal extends to adults who continue to collect them.

Dominoes originated in China in the 1300s and appeared later in Europe in a slightly different form. A standard set of 28 tiles represents all possible results when rolling a pair of six-sided dice, with the addition of two blank sides. Although there’s a variety of ways to play with them, the cascading toppling of lined-up tiles put the “domino effect” into the American lexicon.

The toys beat out plastic green army men, the board game Clue, the Fisher-Price Corn Popper, Lite-Brite, the Magic 8 Ball, the pogo stick, sidewalk chalk, the electronic game Simon, the tea set and Twister.

To date, 49 toys have made the cut. They range from classics, like Play-Doh and Slinky, to the less obvious, like the stick and cardboard box.

Officials at the Toy Hall of Fame say anyone can nominate a toy and thousands of suggestions come in every year. An internal committee of curators, educators and historians chooses the finalists and then a national selection committee votes for the winners.

Longevity is a key criterion for getting into the 14-year-old hall. Each toy must be widely recognized, foster learning, creativity or discovery through play, and endure in popularity over generations.
