Crap or Not? #4 – TMX Elmo
Posted by Cap in Stop Buying Crap! |
$40 at local retailers (if you can find it). Also available online for around $100 (currently).
Crazy hype and marketing or really kick-ass toy? Do kids really have fun with these Elmo? Because forty bones sure is a lot of moola…

OK, so I see the next level for this toy.
The new one will pee on your floor because he just can’t stop laughing.

Crap.
The video maker already has a cute beagle to play with. Why waste money on a loud, stupid toy?

Um, crap! The thrift stores will be full of ‘em in about 18 months.

I bought a TMX and after I watched him laugh a few times he stopped moving. I had to send it back to the toy store. Of course I won’t get a replacement Elmo so I plan on getting the Pooh knows your name doll for my grand daughter for Christmas instead.
TMX is a wonderfully cute idea for babies but any toy that has that much movement can’t last long anyway right?

TMX Elmo is expected to sell like hotcakes this holiday season.

I call it iffy. I wouldn’t spend my money on it, but my in-laws bought one for my kids. I chalk it up to “mildly amusing”. My one year old loved it for a while, but grew bored with it.
At least people weren’t going crazy and paying $1000 for it like they did the original “Tickle Me Elmo” 10 years ago.
