NFR Humor: Customer reviews for the "real" toy are hilarious.

[marilynfl]

On the other hand, I'm still trying to figure out the math for the 48 customer reviews. For example: "3,448 of 3,503" people found the first review helpful!

Must be that "new" math they came up with in the 60's, way before Transportation Security Administration reared its ugly scanner head.

Unbelievable! I can't believe the range of "toys" today. My eyes are now open and I want to scream.

Keep in mind that folks who viewed this also viewed the "Folkmanis ...

...Beaver Finger Puppet".

There ya go.

Oh! That's incredibly sad isn't it? What happened to all the great old fashioned toys...

I could see Jay Leno having fun with this one.

Have you seen the cartoons lately for kids? Talk about wanting to scream!

 

[angiebaby]

Can you buy accessories like a tasor, handcuffs and extra guards?

 

[amanda_pennsylvania]

Hysterical.

I can't believe this is real. It must be a fake site somehow linked into Amazon.

 

[scott-in-scottsdale]

You are correct. It's a fake. But, it's a very clever one.

 

[shaun-in-to]

No, it was real in 2003. But they kind of hid it after 2005. It's suddenly being talked about again

because the Huffington Post picked up a story about it.

OK. I searched their web-site, and found no mention of it.
