Target, FAO Schwarz team up again on exclusive collection

Target and legendary toy store FAO Schwarz are teaming up again to bring the company's toys to the Minneapolis-based retailer. 

This year's collection features an "exclusive assortment" of more than 120 toys, ranging in price from about $10 to $150. The collection also includes a "capsule collection" of classic FAO Schwarz toys to mark the toymaker's 160th anniversary, such as a Hot Wheels Collector Set. 

The toys will be available starting in mid-October at Target stores, on Target.com and at FAO Schwarz stores. 

This partnership comes after the retailers launched a 70-item collection last year, which was a huge hit, Target said. 

"We are incredibly thrilled to partner exclusively with Target after having forged such a successful relationship together over the past couple of years. There truly is no better way to kick off our 160th anniversary than to announce this partnership," David Niggli, chief merchandising office for FAO Schwarz, said in a statement. "FAO Schwarz has been celebrating the wonder of childhood and bringing awe and discovery to all children — and the child inside all of us — for 160 years, and now families everywhere across the U.S. can enjoy this experience at their local Target store."
