It only comes this time each year.
So why not gift your geeky friends and family to one of our picks of the coolest, or [COUGH] rudest new toys of the holidays.
First up, prepare your loved ones for the coming zombie apocalypse with Nerf's latest range of foam firing weaponry The new N-Strike Elite Hyperfire blaster boasts a tommy gun style 25 dart drum, that can shoot five darts per second in rapid fire.
For more firepower, the Modulus Tri-Strike [NOISE] arms you with three firing options, from darts, mega-darts, and missiles.
Best of all thought, why not avenge yourself with the Captain America Civil War Blaster Reveal Shield.
Although, I'm not sure how Cap himself would feel, about his symbol of protection being modified for dart attacks.
For me, Christmas wouldn't be Christmas without some new Legos This hue tide.
The friends team has really gone for a ride with this amusement park.
The bright blue ramped truck guides the rollacosta around with a light break built into the front of the train.
Then, if the drop tower hasn't made your elongated many figures of vomit candy flaws all over each other, then head to the fairies wheel For a gentler ride.
Meanwhile, there's plenty of spinoff action from the Star Wars series, with the latest Rogue One sets.
The Rebel U-Wing Fighter includes many of the new characters among the five new mini figures, and loads of cool moving parts.
However, if the dark side is more your thing then try the Interactech Imperial Stromtrooper from Hasbro with its 65 sound effects.
Trooper standing by.
Jetpack and light up chest.
The awesomest Star Wars toy this year though has to be the Battle Quads from Propel.
The remote control drone toys interact with each other to register hits during dog fights and they come in the coolest packaging I've ever seen.

But the award for rudest toy of all time, goes to Silly Sausage, from John Adams Leisure.
If you're fast fingered enough, do twist, dip, shake, poke and stretch, as the feisty foot long barks out his commands, then your Christmas is assured to be filled with joy, happiness, And peace.
Poke me.
[NOISE] Stretch me.
[NOISE] Shake me.
[NOISE] Hit me.
[NOISE] Poke me.
[NOISE] Hit me.
[NOISE] Shake me.
[NOISE] [SOUND] Can you beat the banger?
