It's a tough job, but somebody's got to do it. Over the past three days, the nation's leading toy manufacturers, as well as several newcomers, introduced their latest and greatest creations in hopes of becoming the Zhu Zhu Pets of 2010. Through wandering through the 345,000 square feet of exhibit space and eyeing the 7,000 products that were on display for the first time, we identified several trends that you can expect to see on store shelves later this year. Here are the top five toy trends to keep an eye out for as these products hit your local retailer.

Iron Man 2 - See It or Skip It?

PopSugarUK — Fri, 18 Dec 2009 06:15:00 -0800

Hold on to your hats, people, Tony Stark is back! The trailer for Iron Man 2 has got me so excited for the film, with glimpses at villain Mickey Rourke plus Don Cheadle, Scarlett Johansson and Gwyneth Paltrow, as well as Robert Downey Jr of course. It's due out in May 2010, so check out the trailer and vote below to let me know: will you see it or skip it?

The Iron Man 2 Trailer Is Finally Here!

BuzzSugar — Wed, 16 Dec 2009 17:09:24 -0800

I've been waiting to see a trailer for Iron Man 2 pretty much since the credits rolled for the original, and the day has finally arrived! As we learned from the sneak peeks and stills, Tony Stark is back, maybe even more egotistical than before (in the most charming way possible, of course). The preview hints that there's still a spark between Tony and Pepper, but perhaps not a relationship. Meanwhile, Tony/Iron Man has escalated to fame of rock star proportions when a stalker-like menace begins lurking in the shadows. He surfaces as Whiplash, played by a terrifying Mickey Rourke (who also comes complete with a mouth full of grills).

We also get a quick glimpse of Scarlett Johansson kicking butt as Black Widow and Don Cheadle as the new Col. Rhodes - or should I say War Machine? (Yes, he gets an iron suit of his own, so cool!) Let's just say I'm marking my calendar for May 7.

To see the big, exciting, explosive trailer, just read more.

Tim Gunn = Marvel Fashion Wise One

FabSugar — Thu, 21 May 2009 11:00:22 -0700

Fun! Marvel comics is releasing a fashion comic named Models Inc. on Aug. 26 starring Tim Gunn. Similar to his role on Project Runway, Tim will act as the "wise one," helping to solve the crime of a young set designer murdered during New York Fashion Week - all while wearing an Iron Man suit! So far, we know Models Inc. will feature three ladies: Millicent Collins (Millie the Model), Patsy Walker (Hellcat), and Spiderman's Mary Jane. Sounds like a fashion paper version of Charlie's Angels.

Iron Man 2 Is Coming, Hopefully With Improvements

GeekSugar — Wed, 04 Feb 2009 09:00:15 -0800

It was my favorite superhero movie of last year (it was so fun), and I'm anxiously awaiting its sequel to hit the big screen next year. Heck yeah I'm excited for Iron Man 2, but I'm not sure how I feel about another video game installment, given what happened last time. You know what I mean.

I can't think of a better way to continue the fun of a movie than in video game form, but there haven't been many to write home about, Iron Man included. But hopefully, the trusty hands of Sega can pull it off this time. Announced yesterday, Iron Man 2 is definitely hitting the shelves next year and will be available on your PS3, PS2, Xbox 360, Wii, and DS consoles. Did you play the first installment of the Iron Man franchise? Do you even care about a second?

Buzz Gift Guide: A Bounty For Boys

BuzzSugar — Wed, 19 Nov 2008 12:30:41 -0800

Welcome back to my Buzz Gift Guide series for all the entertainment lovers in your life. On Monday I dug up some gifts for the little ones in your life and today I'm brainstorming ideas for the teenage dudes in your world who are pop culture sponges.

If I had a teenage brother I'd insist he own a complete set of Indiana Jones DVDs including (but more importantly, not limited to) this year's fourth addition to the franchise. In regard to other franchises, I've noticed that some teenage guys (and by "some" I mean my younger cousins) are always quoting Family Guy and The Simpsons and might have fun with these characters to stick up on their walls.

For the wannabe rock star in your life there's always Guitar Hero World Tour which expands the game from a lone guitar player to a full band that includes drums (it actually looks like a lot of fun!). You may know a young lad who enjoys that Shaun White snowboarding video game, so he might like listening to the pretty cool soundtrack from it, and finally, I'm sure many teens would be stoked to own Iron Man.

Check out HolidaySugar for all of our holiday coverage and gift guides.
