  • Story Text: The 46th Nuremberg International Toy Fair, the largest in the world, opened on Thursday (February 2) with a special show of construction kits and hobby crafts.

    Although the trade fair, which will do business for six days, is not open to the public, 2,500 exhibitors will offer their goods to the buyers who decide what toys will be available in the shops next year.

    No children under 16 can be admitted under any circumstances.

    This is a trade buyers' market and toys a serious business.

    More than one thousand German toy exhibits will be on show, while Italy leads the foreign participation with 190 companies, followed by Hong Kong with 145 and the United Kingdom with 135.

    The organisers expect over 58,000 buyers to pass through the fair over the six day period.
