    i hate to say it but there are no adverts on the tv, radio or internet for this product, i dont honestly think it will be a hit for xmas, and i do have 5 stuck in my bedroom ready for xmas on ebay which i think i am gonna struggle to sell. They are all top secret box's aswell.

    I might just offload them now before ebay gets crouded out.

    It's the 8th of October! And if I was Fisher price I would be thinking, why advertise a product that seems to be flying out of shops without any advertising?

    This is only for gamblers, so if you are worried at all by all means offload now. But just don't complain if they DO reach silly levels by Xmas! But, of course, you are totally allowed to laugh at us if the gamble fails miserably :D

    I ordered one from Woolworths and had to take it back as it didn't work correctly stopped doing the laughing and movements half way through. I only knew this as My sister also bought one and I watched her's. Lucky as I normally just put them away for Xmas. Glad I did check it now :D

    My daughter did see it but she is only 9 months and will forget by Xmas, she loved it though :D
    Mummy to 5 beautiful girls and yes it is very hard work lol x :o


    THANK YOU
  • Sorry I meant has anybody actually seen a 'Warning' box as most of the pictures show the warning box but when they actually arrive they are the Top Secret boxes?:confused:

    Bought Elmo TMX from Argos today and indeed it was the Top Secret box but it does not say 'NO peeking' when the box flap is opened.

    Instead it says something like 'Elmo really ticklish in here'

    From research I have read the original top secret box should say 'no peekin' and the warning box should say the above that I have found.

    Have they put out more top secret boxes to try to reduce the uniqueness of the first batch?

    If anyone else has bought one from Argos in the last day or two let me know what yours says and if it is a top secret or warning box.

    Let's try to resolve the confusion.
