Default TMX Elmo, Incredible !

The 10th anniversary edition of the Tickle me Elmo. I remeber when the first one was released I was outside of Mexico and got news that the thing was selling in the black market for up to 1-2 grand or something like that ! it was insane

This version was released yesterday and now its sold out in all the US, today it was released in Mexico and I got a presentation of it and decided to buy one
ASAP !

just look at the vid and youll be impressed and will have a great laugh !

holy crap that thing is nuts. kinda funny how it whacks off and then bends over

I'm quite impressed that it can stand itself back up, though!

From what I understand, you press his torso and the toy will start laughing hysterically, engaging in strange body contortions. I'm sure it's highly entertaining in real life.
