Elmo Live Review

The new Fisher Price Elmo Live Doll has already become one of the HOTTEST Christmas gifts of the year 2008 for kids and tots. If you are lucky as me to preorder Elmo Live previously, you don't have to worry about "sold out" anymore. There is rumor spreading now that the Sesame Street Elmo Live Toy has been sold out in some local retail stores already (Remember what happened to Tickle Me Elmo and other HOTTEST toys by Fisher Price in the previous years?)

So I received my preordered new Elmo Live toy last week, and I have to say I am really impressed by this furry red doll. Fisher Price includes 6 AA batteries in the package, I immediately played with him after pulling out the "Try Me" strap near the battery compartment. Similar to the beloved Tickle Me Elmo (a.k.a.T.M.X Elmo), this Elmo Live toy tickles if you touch his tummy, foot and back (sensors will be activated when you touch the right part of Elmo's body). He Moves, Talks, Dances, Tells jokes, and even Sneezes! When he tells stories or jokes, he actually moves his mouth in nearly perfectly sync with the voice. And you know what, he even acts out during his story-telling. For instance, he moves his cute hands up to show he is shocked. If he reads to some part that's really funny, he laughs out which is really hilarious. This new Elmo Live doll is capable of so many life-like movements, that he looks like the real Elmo alive from the Sesame Street.

Another difference that sets Elmo Live apart from other "talking" toys is that he is quite interactive in a way. For instance, he asks you for a hug and then says "thank you" if he receives one. Interactive features like this make Elmo Live an alive friend rather than a toy for kids, as if he or she is playing with a live creature.

I did notice that sometimes the Elmo Live toy can fall over if he doesn't stand on a hard, flat surface (He will ask you to help him back up again and says "Thank You" if you do so. This could be a good way to teach good manners towards young tots). Also you can hear the mechanical sound when he moves sometimes, but I found this noise is not that loud and quickly forgotten since you see so many wonderful features from Elmo Live.
