HDen Posted May 11, 2008 Report Share Posted May 11, 2008 yeah I don't buy happy meals from mickey d's anymore, the toys suck now, plus they only last about 2 days... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boomana Posted May 11, 2008 Report Share Posted May 11, 2008 I wonder if the counter on that ball goes backward if you swing it in the opposite direction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duggeh Posted May 11, 2008 Report Share Posted May 11, 2008 I wonder if the counter on that ball goes backward if you swing it in the opposite direction. My sister had a similar toy and it counted backwards when you skipped the other way, or backwards if you skipped normally after putting it on upside down. I suspect that if mum and dad hadn't bought the cheapest one Woolworths had, it would have been sophisticated enough not to do so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I somehow doubt the toys makers were interested in marketing a sophiscated model of a toy that swings on a kids ankle. There was probably just the one toy, but then again, I don't really know what I'm talking about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dusty Chalk Posted May 15, 2008 Report Share Posted May 15, 2008 Stupid kid being happy to get Slinky Dog and Slinky Bug for her birthday. Yeah, those kind of sucked, didn't they? "How can we repackage a Slinky?" "Why would we want to, it's selling so well?" "Because pretty soon, everyone who wants one will have one, and then sales will taper off." "So? If every household has at least one, then we're still doing really good. Besides, they kink if you actually use them at all, so those people will have to replace them." "If they're selling that well, then we can get rid of the marketing staff, which means you'll be out of a job." "Oh." "..." "Uh." (tugs at collar) "..." "How about -- we stick things on each end so they look like long animals?" "Now you're cooking. Go tell it to manufacturing." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
