Week of 19 Oct 2026Live

The Viral & Trending picks holding the top 3 most often so far this week (1 day in). Updated as each day's picks land.

  1. NeeDoh: 3,350,000 monthly searches, up 45x

    Palm-sized sensory squishies from brands like NeeDoh are being called this year's viral toy, with Wilko saying they are selling out across the country. A trend tracker says the wave is still the biggest toy story by volume, though it is past its summer peak.

    Why it mattersCheap, giftable and still selling out, so they're a prime stocking-filler grab before Christmas.

  2. Pop Mart's collectible plush and bag charms are now a sustained mainstream craze rather than a passing fad, and Wilko says Labubus are here to stay in 2026. Earlier in the craze, Pop Mart suspended all UK in-store sales after queues and reported fights.

    Why it mattersDemand has been strong enough to shut shop doors, so gift-ready stock can vanish fast.

  3. Madeformums calls the Clickeez Bubble Pops Keyboard Mega Mystery Figure Pack one of this year's viral sensations. It turns the click of a keyboard into a collectible sensory toy, and it's popping up on Christmas toy lists at £30.

    Why it mattersIt's a mystery-pack gift that combines the fidget and collectible crazes in one box.
