Macy’s is getting ready for its first official holiday season with Toys “R” Us in the mix.

This week, the companies unveiled Geoffrey’s Hot Toy List, a selection of toys and games that will be available in stores and online this season. The promotional push comes ahead of the official Toys “R” Us Grand Opening Celebration, a nine-day promotion taking place Oct. 15-23 in which Macy’s will host in-store events, family activities, and giveaways.

Geoffrey’s Hot Toy List features toys and games from popular companies and brands, including Mattel, LEGO, Pokémon, Disney, and more. The selection also includes a Funko Pop! Holiday Geoffrey the Giraffe figure that comes in a Macy’s sweater wrapped in Christmas lights. Additionally, popular Toys “R” Us house brands, including Fast Lane, Imaginarium, You & Me, and Just Like Home are back in action for the holiday season.
