Korea’s hottest-selling items this Christmas season are Power Rangers from the “Dino Force” series, retailer Lotte Mart said last week.
According to Lotte, the top children’s item for Christmas this year is the Power Rangers’ Dino Force DX Tyranno King. Other products in the Dino Force series follow close behind.
“Dino Force products are hard to obtain and aren’t always in stock,” a Lotte official told Yonhap. “Still, the toys managed to become the bestsellers in December.”
Since debuting on Korean television in July, the “Dino Force” series has seen explosive popularity.
Robots from the “Tobot” animation series were also popular, ranking third and seventh on the list.
