Wal-Mart, Target, and Toys R' Us are expecting new deliveries of Hatchimals, this year's new blockbuster toy, before Christmas. As Christmas draws nearer, many parents are scrambling for toys to purchase for their children. Parents who haven't found a Hatchimal yet, don't fret. Stores are reportedly expecting new shipments of Hatchimals real soon.

Walmart and Target stores in Columbus are expecting new deliveries of Hatchimals between December 8, and December 19, 2016. The interactive toy will be sold for $48.88 at the following Walmart stores: Chillicothe, Circleville, Grove City, Heath, Lancaster, Lewis Center, Reynoldsburg, and Washington Court House. Target stores have also received dozens of Hatchimals on December 11, but reportedly only offered 22 Hatchimals at the time. Target assures shoppers of more Hatchimal deliveries before Christmas.

Toys 'R' Us will also be restocking on Hatchimals before Christmas. The Furby-like toy will be sold for $79.99 previously priced at $69.99, though this is pretty much cheaper compared to the prices on eBay and Amazon. Toys R Us also has a "12 Days Of Hatchimals Giveaway" for in-store shoppers who sign up for Rewards "R" Us membership through December 22, 2016. Winners will receive a Hatchimal and $1,000 worth Toys "R" Us gift card. Starting December 17 until December 22, Toys R Us opens at 6:00 A.M. through 2:00 A.M. to accommodate last minute shoppers.

Be wary, however, as there are many scammers who exploit parents into promoting fake Hatchimal giveaways and scamming parents into revealing their bank details. Reports of fake gift cards, coupons, and merchandise have also soared as people scramble in search for Hatchimals. Best to trust official retailers of Hatchimals such as Amazon, Target, Wal-Mart, Toys R Us, K-Mart, and Spin Master.

Spin Master Chief Marketing Officer Nancy Zwiers recognizes the demand for Hatchimals, revealing that they have already increased the production of the Furby-like toy. She assures everyone that there will be a "whole new batch" of Hatchimals that will be delivered in early 2017.
