A range of mini-figures created by Spin Master is known as the Hatchimals. The toys’ centrepiece is a robotic creature that “hatches” itself from an egg, with each creature representing a different kind of animal.

Following their original release in October 2016, the toys were met with a surprisingly high level of interest. Media publications predicted that they would be the best-selling item of the Christmas season, resulting in raffles and waiting lists for the limited supply, as well as parallels to other significant toy phenomena such as Cabbage Patch Kids and Tickle Me Elmo (which were also popular).

Spin Master’s head of robotics, James Martin, revealed in 2014 that his team despised the popularity of unpacking videos on YouTube and had envisioned a notion for a toy that would “unbox” itself as a result to this trend.

Eventually, this notion developed into the concept of a robotic creature that would hatch from an egg, requiring the invention of a mechanism for the hatching as well as a material for the egg itself to be constructed out of. It was formally introduced on October 7, 2016, with advertising on television and digital media, such as social networking sites, to support the introduction. At the time of debut, there were five potential species to choose from: the Bearakeet, the Burtle, the Draggle, the Penguala, and the Owlicorn.

Hatchimals Colleggtibles, a brand of small collectable figurines that are packaged in a blind bag, were released by Spin Master in 2017.
