Amazon has revealed the 10 most desirable toys that will top Santa's list this holiday season - including a LEGO Super Mario set, Pictionary Air Harry Potter and Polly Pocket.

The shopping giant’s top picks for the festive season combine nostalgia and modern crazes, with LOL Surprise and Paw Patrol items also on the list.

And for that nostalgic hit, there is the LEGO Luigi Starter Course — an interactive and building game — and Pictionary Air Harry Potter.

The Polly Pocket Rainbow Funland Theme Park, LOL Surprise OMG Movie Magic Studios and Linkimals Dance 'n Groove Penguin add to the list.

“It is always an exciting time of year when we release the top 10 toys and we hope this Christmas, unlike the last, that more families will reunite to celebrate with one another." said Matthew Redfearn, toys category manager for Amazon. “As we look forward to spending more time with loved ones, we at Amazon are doing everything we can to spread a little festive cheer."

Other toys to feature in the top 10 include a Spidey and his Amazing Friends playset and a Little Live Pets Gotta Go Turtle.

A Batman 36 inch transforming playset, Squeakee The Balloon Dino and Paw Patroller 2.0 completed the top 10.

Amazon has created a 'Trending Machine', where for one day only, people can pick up a top item at Observation Point on Southbank, before moving on to other cities.

Passers-by will be able to walk away with one of this year’s must-have Christmas toys for free, on a first-come-first-served basis.

It will also be taken to local hospitals to share some early festive cheer with children.

Matthew Redfearn added: “The Trending Machine has been brought to life with the sole purpose of delivering smiles and making Christmas extra special, not only to passers-by but to the children in hospital who might not be at home this Christmas.”
