        Supposed to be the hottest toy for the holidays this year. I just showed that vid to a co-worker with a 2 1/2yo.

        she's definitly not getting one of those, thank goodness her kid doesn't like Elmo that much.

            Saw this yesterday on the business news, investers weren't pleased as Mattel's stock dropped. Shows they haven't a clue, I've got to have this! (for the kid of course

              That may have been a reaction to the price: $88.00 USD on Amazon

              That said a poster on YouTube mirrors how I think Erik would react;

              Do they explode?

              If not, it's not extreme enough for my child... I guess I'll just have to get him a laptop with a Sony battery...

                They're sold out around here and elsewhere from what I've been hearing. So they should start appearing on eBay for ludicrous amounts of money.

                  Great toy! But 88 USD is much too much.

                    This is crazy...no self-respecting parent should buy such an unbelievably annoying toy for a young kid. While I love the Chuckie-style creepiness of the thing, I see it as getting very old very fast when in the house. Plus, imagine a cat or dog bumping into this thing in the middle of the night There'd be a whole concerto to handle...
