Foam-based weaponry toy market - Segmentation Assessment
Segment Overview
Technavio has segmented the market based on distribution Channel (Offline and Online).

• The offline segment will grow at a significant rate during the forecast period. The concertation of offline distribution channels helps manufacturers of foam-based weaponry toys to achieve efficient product distribution practices and reduce sales and distribution costs. This is because offline distribution channels provide an opportunity for buyers to test the toys before making a purchase, which is not the case with the online channel. Hence, the above-mentioned factors are expected to drive the growth of the offline distribution channel in the global foam-based weaponry toy market during the forecast period.

Geography Overview
By geography, the global foam-based weaponry toy market is segmented into North America, Europe, APAC, South America, and Middle East and Africa. The report provides actionable insights and estimates the contribution of all regions to the growth of the global foam-based weaponry toy market.

Foam-based weaponry toy market – Market Dynamics
Leading Drivers - The increasing demand for toy guns from children and teenagers is notably driving the market growth. Children and teenagers always have small impressions of the adult world, and toy guns, including foam guns, are no exception. One of the biggest advantages of toy guns is that they provide free play that encourages creativity and expression. Play weapons provide structure, form, and purpose for play. Toy guns can also help children and young people learn new things, develop their imagination and improve their creative skills. Such factors are expected to drive the growth of the global market during the forecast period.

Key Trends - Increasing adoption of multi-channel marketing and promotional strategies by vendors is an emerging trend in the market. Sellers invest heavily in marketing and advertising their products. The focus is on engaging consumers, enhancing brand relevance, and brand awareness, and driving consumers to stores or shopping websites. In addition, the increasing penetration of the internet, smartphones, and tablets have provided consumers with easy access to a wide range of products and information to help them make smart purchasing decisions for their children. These factors are expected to contribute to the growth of the global market during the forecast period.

Major challenges - The increased popularity of digital and e-games is a major challenge impeding the market. The popularity of digital and electronic games is growing rapidly across the globe. They are increasingly replacing outdoor toys and games. Games and animations on desktop computers, consoles, and mobile phones easily attract children. Low consumer loyalty to outdoor toys and games, and the adoption of various popular physical games in the digital game platform hinder sales of outdoor toys and games. Due to the increasing use of smartphones, the number of mobile games is likely to increase during the forecast period. Thus, the growing popularity of digital e-games poses a major threat to the growth of the global foam gun toys market during the forecast period.
