decade of fads and prosperity leads to everything from Power Rangers to
Pogs to Pok´on. Tickle Me Elmo pulls a Cabbage Patch on
holiday-shopping parents, while Beanie Babies raise the collector

ever-evolving video game systems from Nintendo, Sega, Sony and others,
but Tamagotchi virtual pets and Furby lead the interactive toy parade
into the high-tech future.
