Hatchimals sold out at Target, Walmart; Where to buy Hatchimals for this year Christmas 2016?

The Hatchimal is truly one of this year's top-selling toys, and the demand for the furry animal toys in partly hatched eggs is expected to go up given that the holiday season is inching closer. There are roughly 40 days left before Christmas Day, which means that there are only limited days left for the parents wanting to get their children a lovely Hatchimal gift.

Unfortunately, it seems like the buyers are taking no chances to get their own Hatchimal toys before the stock runs out. As reported by US Magazine, several stores in the United States are reporting long lines of people going after the very limited number of Hatchimals. Even the official website of the Hatchimal toy acknowledged the overwhelming response of the consumers with regards to Hatchimals.

"The consumer response to Hatchimals has been extraordinary, exceeding all expectations... "Some of our first shipments have already sold out. While the additional product will hit retail shelves in November, we anticipate this inventory will also sell out quickly. We have increased production and a whole new batch of Hatchimals will be ready to hatch in early 2017," the Hatchimal management has stated on their website.

Unfortunately, not all people may have their own Hatchimal toy by Christmas time due to the actual Hatchimal demand exceeding the number of toys in the first shipment. In fact, it is now being reported that the Hatchimals stock at several Walmart and Target stores in the country is depleted. To note, the initial retail value of a Hatchimal toy is $60, but both Walmart and Target earlier introduced a price cut. Walmart is offering a discount to $49.99, while Target is selling Hatchimals as low as $48.88. No wonder that it would be hard for one to find even a single Hatchimal at Target or Walmart.

Nevertheless, there are other known retailers in the United States that may still have Hatchimals stocked on their shelves. Aside from Walmart and Target, the popular toy retailer Toys R Us is still giving out Hatchimal toys at reasonable price. Likewise, K-Mart and Amazon are also known to be sellers of Hatchimals, Gotta Be Mobile reported.

The online publication also noted that in times when Hatchimals are nowhere to be found in a certain location, buyers can always check out the Now In Stock application to know which stores nearby still have the much coveted Hatchimal toy.
