The new trend in combining video-games and toys will make for some popular presents this Christmas. We get toy expert and CBBC presenter, Nigel Clarke of ToyTesters.TV, to put Skylanders, Disney Infinity, Amiibo and Angry Birds Transformers through their paces.

Today here's the first video looking at what Amiibo has to offer families this holiday season.

We'll be back with Nigel next week to look at some other creative toy-video-game crossovers.
