Saying that "one toy stretches our gray matter; the other expands our sense of childhood wonder," the National Toy Hall of Fame announced Thursday that its 2013 inductees are the game of chess and the rubber duck.


This year's finalists that didn't make it into the Rochester, N.Y., hall:




Bubbles


The game of Clue


Fisher-Price Little People


Little green army men


Magic 8 Ball


My Little Pony


Nerf toys


Pac-Man


The scooter


Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles




All of the hall's honorees are posted here.


We've written about the hall before. Yes, we're still hoping for sidewalk chalk to get in.


Also, with Rubber Ducky in the hall how can they leave out Ernie (and Bert, of course)?
