Encountering the NSFW toy

The other day, when I was spending way too much time reading FAIL blog, I saw this photo:

If you don’t get why this product is a FAIL, you can go read the comments, which I can’t reprint here for health reasons.

But I’m sure you get it.

I just thought it mildly eyebrow-raising but nothing spectacularly worthy of attention, so I didn’t think anymore of it.

Then, over the weekend, while visiting with the family, I saw my niece playing with this.

It sure seems to be a popular toy.

    modchip: Yes?

    Rinko: Oh, but of course. :) I’ll bet I wouldn’t have thought anything of the toy if I had never seen it first on FAIL blog. :P

    Sham: Er.. ok I’ll buy one for you if I ever come across it ok? But.. but… what do you want it for? :P

    I have also been reading the Fail blog and having lots of laugh.

    This toy must have 2 uses, one for the kids to play with and the other for mommy or big sis to play with. ;P

    Advance Sheylara! =D

    – The button seems like its use to control the “pet”
    – Totally no clue about the yellowish water…
    – I doubt it vibrates

    Eagerly awaiting verification by Sheylara~~~
    ~LOL~

    Sham: Um… what’s BOB?

    Relax: I don’t think it vibrates. Anyway, not everybody sees anything in that toy. To some people, it looks just like a child’s toy. :P And stop being sick! Haha.

    Goonmother: What are YOU going to do with them??

    oOFooi: Um… nothing special really! Nothing to see here, now, move along! :P

    Monster: Haha… I think it’s kinda cute. I’ve seen uglier. :P

    Ms._____ 2 be!: And what might that something be…? ;)

    Neo: Well, the kids like it…

    Anlooo: OMG that’s actually sick, what you suggested. Haha. But thanks for the birthday wishes! :)

    hyperX: No no… it’s a toy, it looks like a toy and it’s meant to be a toy! I mean for kids! lol.

    Ashtar83: I believe this isn’t the weirdest thing you can find out there in the weird, weird world.

    DK: The toy is actually quite old, some hand-me-down. Water used to be clear, turned yellow over the years.

    JayWalk: Of course she is!!!!

    modchip: I think it was broken. I tried pressing the buttons but they didn’t do anything at all.

    Numby: Eh, what? How to have an adventure in the little tube aquarium?

    Jesta: Your comment put the song “Run to the hills” (by Iron Maiden) in my head. Now I can’t get rid of it!!

    Wang Wang: I suspect it was some joke toy designed by a very funny person.

    K: Sorry, I can’t really verify too accurately cos the toy seemed broken when I saw it. What it does is occasionally makes some electronic cutesy sounds by it’s own accord. And once in a while, the figure inside will wiggle its limbs and sorta dance around.

    Pressing the buttons doesn’t do anything. The water is yellowish from age. Used to be clear.

    No it doesn’t vibrate!!! lol.

    I believe the left button makes the “pet” wiggle left, and the right button makes the “pet” wiggle right… pressing both makes the “pet” wiggle downwards.

    As to why “pet” is in “quotation marks”, it’s because it’s not really a “pet” but is just quoted to be one, probably from the packaging or marketing.

    Mince Pye: HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT?!!! I mean about the pet wiggling.

    Goonmother: Er… ok, if you say so. :P
