It is cute, I will admit. However, I can see frazzled parents drop kicking Elmo out the window by New Years Eve.

It would take just a few hours before I would be doing a battery-ectomy on that thing.

I want one.

When I was a kid I bought a thing called "A bag full of laughs" from Spencer's and it was a blast.

You beat me to it. I was just thinking what a blast my dogs would have with this.

You know what happens if your dog eats one of these don't you.


Your dog becomes TMX Elmo.

Go back to the ship, take off, and nuke the thing from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.

Daughter just told me yesterday they were thinking of getting this for Jellybean....

Of course, I said we would get it instead!!

Just watched the video....oh my goodness!....(I might change my mind...this is probably one of those toys daughter would leave at MY house)

We bought a "Tickle Me Elmo" a couple of years ago for our daughter. After a few months, I got so sick of hearing "Elmo's not ticklish there!" ad nauseum that I did surgery, extracting Elmo's heart (AKA the batteries).

There is NO WAY this Elmo is coming into MY house!!!

I don't think this one will be as popular as the last one, in spite of the hype. It's not soft, or flexible, which is going to make it harder to play with. You can hear the mechanism's whirr very clearly, and it seems like it would be very breakable.

It's not just a catchphrase, it's a way of life.
