With just over a month until Christmas the Syma 3 helicopter is once again the best selling toy on amazon.com, while on amazon.co.uk specially designed children's cameras continue to be popular.

The best-selling* toys and games worldwide are:

Amazon.com - New Syma 3 Channel S107 Mini indoor co-axial metal body frame & built in gyroscope RC remote controlled helicopter ($27.20 /€19.55 reduced from $129.95 /€93.40)

The ever popular Syma 3 remote controlled helicopter returns to the top of the bestsellers list on amazon.com. The helicopter is 19.05 cm (7.5 inches) long and comes fully assembled; however, it is probably best suited to those with roomy accommodation as, according to Amazon, the toy is suitable for indoor flying only.  

Amazon.co.uk - Vtech Kidizoom Video Camera (Pink)
(£35.00/ €41 reduced from £59.99/€70.39)

Market as a "child's first" video camera, this toy comes with a 4x digital zoom and 256mb memory and is capable of recording videos, taking photos and adding moving animations to a moving picture. The second best selling toy on amazon.co.uk this week is also the Vtech Kidizoom video camera, only in blue.

Amazon.fr - Giochi Preziosi, Poupées-Cicciobello Bobo
(€49.90)

Budding doctors can play at nursing this doll back to health. The Cicciobello Bobo comes with a stethoscope, syringe, thermometer and several medicine bottles. The doll has a variety of symptoms and, like actually infants, expresses its need for treatment through crying.

Amazon.de - Simba - Filly Fairy Pferde Adventskalender
(€24.40)

Translated roughly as "Filly horse fairy," this advent calendar contains a "Filly horse fairy" themed surprise behind each one of its 24 doors.

Amazon.co.jp -
?????? OOO ( ??? ) ????? DX ???????? (9180 Japanese Yen / €80.39)

This gadget-packed utility belt, which roughly translates as Rider DX Henshin Belt Ozudoraiba in English, once again moves up to the top of the bestsellers list on amazon.co.jp .
