Lego classic bricks, the Barbie doll and the Rubik’s Cube have been named among the top toys of all time by retailer Hamleys.

The board game Monopoly, the Tamagotchi virtual pet, which Hamleys described as a “symbol of 90s tech toy obsession”, and the Action Man doll also make the top 10, as does the Teletubby doll, the Furby, the Frozen singing doll and Nintendo Game Boy.
