Tickle Me Elmo is remembered as one of the most difficult-to-find toys of the 1996--or any--holiday season.Elmo gets more outrageous when you tickle him a second time  and the fun really starts with the third tickle sessionTen years later  T.M.X. Elmo (the X stands for 10) was unveiled to the world on Good Morning America on September 19. The most secretly guarded toy of the pre-holiday season  if not all time  T.M.X. Elmo was shown only to a few toy-industry insiders prior to his release. This secrecy didn't stop thousands of pre-orders from piling up. Though now that all is known  the obvious question is: Does T.M.X. Elmo deserve the hype?When you first take him out of his box  T.M.X. Elmo doesn't seem all that grand. He looks after all  well  like Elmo. Covered in the soft red fur that one would expect from everyone's favorite Sesame Street character  T.M.X. Elmo stands an unimposing 14 inches tall. Even worse  he feels all hard and plasticy under his fur. But this Elmo is not meant for cuddles or hand holding or swaddling.This Elmo is all about tickles.Sit T.M.X. Elmo down and hit one of his three tickle spots. There's one under his chin  one on his belly  and one on top of his foot. Yes  this Elmo wiggles just like he did 10 years ago  but that's just the start. Elmo slaps his belly  falls forward with his butt sticking out  stands back up again only to topple backwards  kicks his legs over his belly  and then stands right back up  all while laughing hysterically.Again! Again!Elmo gets more outrageous when you tickle him a second time  and the fun really starts with the third tickle session. Elmo's fancy moves include falling over on his side  shimmying on his back  and what seems to be everyone's favorite: lying flat on his belly slapping the floor next to him as if he cant stop laughing. This Elmo has a serious case of the giggles. His protected design voice builds into a fit of histrionics  endless snickers that drown out everything but an unintelligible cackle until even Elmo admits he has had too much.T.M.X Elmo requires 6 AA batteries  which are included  although these wore down quickly in our review copy. Elmo also has an on\/off switch  so the tickles can be brought to an end when more than just Elmo has had too much. He moves a lot and needs a little open space for the full performance  although he does use his arm to determine his orientation periodically and stand back up if nothing is in the way. He gets a little stuck on uneven surfaces but for the most part performs amazingly well on carpet. On hardwood floors  Elmo works  but he occasionally slams his eyes on the floor in a way that seems it should halt the show.In the end  T.M.X. Elmo is undeniably a trooper. Early reviews show that this turbocharged version of Tickle Me Elmo will follow the stellar path enjoyed by his much simpler predecessor. --David MorelFrom the ManufacturerT.M.X. Elmo will tickle Americas funny bone with three interactive tickle spots on his chin  tummy or toe. When kids tickle Elmo once on any of the tickle spots  he starts to laugh and slap his leg twice  then falls down into a sitting position and rocks himself back up to standing while laughing. When they tickle him a second time  he repeats the pattern even more  then sits down again and falls backwards onto his back and starts kicking his feet while laughing even harder. He then stands back up and asks to be tickled again. And on the third tickle he absolutely lets loose going through the first two patterns and then rolling over onto his tummy where he starts hitting the floor with his hand in gales of laughter  then rolling onto his back  standing up again  and ending with a deep sigh. Requires 6 AA batteries.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ziploc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45667854155932,"sku":"WBTOYB001KWMERO","price":35.56,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0675\/9904\/0668\/files\/810ZQbSqUDL.jpg?v=1764663164","url":"https:\/\/toytooth.com\/products\/ziploc-double-zipper-freezer-gallon-bags-total-152-bags-4-x-38-count","provider":"Toytooth","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
