LONDON – 2014 reversed the negative trend registered over the analysis period, when Spain was affected by a severe economic crisis. Although 2014 demonstrated positive growth, it is too early to see this when it comes to a revival in the market. Major brands and a range of top sellers, like Lego, Furby or Frozen, captures a significant proportion of demand and pushed sales up. The higher than average prices for these products also supported the positive industry performance in value terms.

Licensed toys kept on gaining ground in the country and licensing was often strongly associated with the success of products. Frozen licensed products witnessed remarkable demand as of 2014 and within the dolls and accessories category they played a role in the decrease in popularity of Barbie. Concerning boys’ toys, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles registered strong growth within the action figures and accessories category. Licensed products are also playing an essential role within video games in the country.

Going forward, the demand for toys and games in Spain is projected to rise within most categories due to the improvements in the overall economic climate and the stabilisation of unit prices. Within the traditional toys category, important novelties are anticipated in terms of the introduction of toys that in the past were considered to be for boys. Producers are likely to introduce action figures, weapons or scientific and/or educational toys in colours that are traditionally of more interest to girls. Meantime, within the video games category, the next wave of consoles in the offing is set to drive the overall positive growth in spite of the rising threat from the free-to-play trend.
