Drones, robots, DIY toys shine at Toy Fair

Just when you thought BB-8 couldn't possibly get cooler, it did.

Made by Sphero, BB-8 was one of 2015's hottest toys. Now, Sphero is letting fans interact with the remote-controlled BB-8 in a new way.

Sphero introduced a wristband that lets users control BB-8 with the wave of a hand instead of through an app. BB-8 follows gestures to roll forward, change directions and stop.

The Force Band will hit stores in the fall.
