From diamond encrusted pacifiers to million dollar dolls, we count down the 10 most expensive
children’s toys.
#10 The Original Monopoly - You’ll be throwing back some cash for this throwback. Today there
are seemingly endless editions of Monopoly, with every city, film and franchise cashing
in on the game that lasts only ten minutes until someone screams or ends in merciless
torture for everyone but one person. However, if you are a true Monopoly fan, you may wants
your kids to play this version—the 1933 hand-drawn and hand crafted Monopoly set,
made by creator Charles Darrow. The only thing that will set you back harder than a hotel
on boardwalk, is the price of the game, at a whopping $146,500.
#9 Diamonds are a girl’s best friend’s best friend - The priciest Barbie in the world
adds whole new meaning to the term, ‘material girl’. It seems that in our world, you can
either buy a real diamond necklace for your daughter or loved one, or if you’re in to
just setting money on fire, you can buy an eleven inch plastic mold blond hair that wears
a diamond necklace worth more than your house. The saving grace here is that this Barbie,
auctioned off in 2010 for over $300,000, had all the proceeds go to breast cancer research.
#8 Gold Boy - For the underachiever who played games all day in your basement and never wanted
to go to college anyway, you could throw away a year’s worth of tuition on the ‘Gold
Boy’, an 18-carat gold Nintendo Game Boy, and it won’t even put you in student loan
debt! Looks like Mario and Luigi were saving all those coins for something after all. The
‘Gold Boy’ has a diamond lined screen and a gem power button. They only thing you
have to promise to do as it’s owner is never get angry and throw the Gold Boy when you
die against the final boss in the original Mega Man—because you’ll literally be throwing
30,000 dollars worth of rage across the room.
#7 Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is - Because your baby knows the difference—and some
parents simply have to have the best for their children, someone out there is making a killing
off of 14-carat white gold and diamond encrusted pacifiers. Dubai daycare centers will never
be the same. The best part is there has to have been a baby out there somewhere who spit
this seventeen thousand dollar doodad out on a stroller ride and their selfie-taking
parent didn’t notice.
#6 Let ‘Build-A-Bear’ Weep - In the year 2000, the Teddy Bear turned 125. To mark such
a momentous occasion, Steiff, a German animal-stuffing specialty company decided to make 41 limited
edition Teddy Bears. While Build-A-Bear allows you to pick a colored heart to have sewn inside,
these bears had golden mouths and sapphire eyes, presumably because when robots eventually
enslave the human race, these bears will be the reigning oligarchs. These bears were ridiculously
expensive, with one even fetching almost 200,000 dollars.
#5 A Dollhouse as Expensive as Your House - While some people enjoy buying a home, why
even bother with that when you could spend the same amount of money, if not more, on
a Dollhouse. With a listing price of 256,500 dollars, Barbie wouldn’t have the furniture
to outfit Titiana’s Palace. A project by British painter Sir Nevile Wilkinson, the
dollhouse took fifteen years to complete, and has 18 rooms and over 3,000 pieces—all
either miniature works of art or furniture items. Now, if only you could live inside,
cook yourself breakfast, and have a hot shower—then maybe it would be worth sharing your personal
space with dolls.
#4 Light Cycle - If a model Lamborghini is too rich for your blood, and you’re okay
with putting your children at what could be considered extreme risk, here’s a toy for
them. This 50,000 dollar bike, inspired by Tron, is designed for slow speeds. Although,
it should be noted that the bike is street legal, so we’re recommending that if you
let your child on it, you keep an eye on them. You probably don’t want them drifting off
onto the road and getting pulled over by a police officer. The secret here is that, while
your child is asleep, you can sneak the Light Cycle out onto the road and live a pretty
awesome fantasy. Just don’t cut anyone off.
#3 Human Bowling - Here’s a fun entry. While not as expensive as other items on this list—coming
in at about 5,000 dollars—we’re simply compelled to ask, ‘Why?’ Suit up in a
human bowling ball suit and charge your way down an inflated lane at ten pins. While this
may be fun the first time, what about the tenth time? Or the hundredth time? Do you
take turns getting in the ball and keep score? The pins are made of foam, so they’ll fall
over easily. We’re compelled to want a version that has some sort of gutter system—a version
where one child runs at their group of friends dressed in inflatable pin suits.
#2 Ginza Tenaka Rocking Horse - Some little girls want a pony. Well, what if your child
wants a gold pony? You’re in luck. The Ginza Tenaka Rocking Horse is a little horse for
small children that’s made completely of gold. And this horse is no skimp, either—it
was carved out of a solid 30KG block of 24-carat gold, so you know it’s worth the 1,470,000
dollar price tag. The only problem is that it may be hard to get one. Originally made
for a prince, it took Jay-Z and Beyonce’s Blue Ivy Carter to warrant another one. So,
either start saving all your single dollars, or find your way into royalty—and then you’ll
be rocking in style.
#1 A Lambo that’s not actually a Lambo - When it comes to toys—for those kids who dream
of owning a Lamborghini, and for those parents who probably dream of owning a Lamborghini,
you have two options. You could go out and spend about 400,000 dollars on a Lamborghini
Aventador and have any kid wait until he or she is 16 to drive it, or, you could really
go all out and buy a 4.8 million dollar Lamborghini Aventador—that’s 1/8 the size and an actual
‘toy’. With diamonds all over, gold and platinum rims, and enough of a price tag to
make even a Billionaire CEO look like he went too far for his son’s half-birthday—we’re
not quite sure who’s buying these, but they exist…which means somebody is.
