Meet T.M.X. Ernie Part of the new Tickle Me Extreme friends, Tickle Me Ernie is every bit as charming and fun as his popular friend, T.M.X. Elmo. When you touch his belly, this plush 11-inch doll falls backwards and giggles as he spins in a full circle. He even gets back up on his own! Dressed in his signature striped sweater and red shoes, this Ernie doll is soft, huggable, and a great toy for young children. He comes packaged in a cute cardboard carrying case with a handle at the top and a cutout to poke his ticklish tummy. Ernie performs best on a hard, flat surface and requires six AA batteries (included) to bring him to life.
Laughter Is Contagious Each T.M.X. friend has its own unique actions. The T.M.X. Ernie features silly, leg-kicking gyrations followed by humorous phrases. This motorized doll is so soft, kids can pick it up, snuggle with it, then put it down and watch it wiggle. It only takes two tickles to send Ernie into hysterical laughter and kids soon find themselves giggling along. This doll has an incredible likeness to the actual Sesame Street character. Parents can add to the fun with T.M.X. Elmo or T.M.X. Cookie Monster, sold separately.
Tickle Test During the tickle test, it became easy to see why the T.M.X. friends are in such demand. When kids tickle Ernie's belly, he falls backwards, then lies down and spins in a circle. True to character, he is full of fun phrases including, "I think I need a rubber ducky." Once the laughing spell is over, he even thanks the tickler, saying, "I really needed that." The doll moves best on a hard, flat surface and struggles a little when placed on carpet. But that was the only minor setback discovered during the hands-on testing process. Overall, T.M.X. Ernie makes a great toy for its target age range. Even adults will crack a smile as Ernie shakes and spins with laughter.

Lovable EarnieNovember 6, 2008 I bought Earnie for my 16 Month old Daughter for Xmas 2007. She wanted nothing to do with him because I guess he was scary and noisy but now she is a year older and loves him so much that she takes him everywhere. It is a good and durable toy and I'm going to get the Cookie Monster this year for her. She also has the TMX Elmo and Baby Elmo as well.

PerfectSeptember 6, 2008 I just love Ernie ..... he is so cute. This is so much fun and you can't help but smile and laugh with him.
It's not as much fun as the ElmoJune 6, 2008 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
Well, I bought this one on sale because I love the blue Cookie Monster that's kind of similar to this one. But it's not as much fun as the Cookie monster. My son pretty much ignores it. I would recommend getting the Cookie monster instead.
Not so sure about this toyMay 12, 2008 I bought this since my daughter loves her Tickle Me Elmo, and she loves Ernie. She's been a little scared of it since it starts very abruptly, so we've barely used it. I'm not sure if she will grow into it since she is only 8 months old, but as for now, its really not suitable for her. It also lacks the diversity of laughs and moves that Elmo has.
how fun!April 12, 2008 This one (and the cookie monster one too) is SOOOO CUTE! I can't believe that it can stand up, sit down, roll onto his back (while having a laugh attack) turn to his side, and belly laugh that way, sit back up, grunt and rock to a bowing position, and then stand back up again. It really freaks my dog out, but the kids love it!Fisher-Price T.M.X. Tickle Me Extreme Cookie MonsterFisher-Price T.M.X. Tickle Me Ernie

Video Review of City Commander Upgrade Resident Transformer reviewer Peaugh has posted a nice, detailed review of the recently released City Commander upgrade set created for the Classics Universe Ultra Magnus figure.
The video goes in the great step by step detail on how to convert and attach the new addition along with nice video angles showing off the impressive attachments.
The images show both robot and vehicle mode (Earth Helicopter). The image of the robot mode shows that Megatron has decent articulation, but unlike the Leader Class version, his cannon cannot be attached to his forearm.

Seibertron.com Reviews Soon To Be Released Glu Mobile 'Tranformers: G1 Awakening' Game Thanks to staff member Stormrider, I was given the chance to make contact with a member of Glu mobile;#x2019;s PR staff, and was able to play a demo of the soon to be released ;#x2018;Transformers: G1 Awakening;#x2019; game for cellular phones. Glu Mobile was very kind and even sent me a compatible phone loaded with the game to play, as they do not currently have a version available for the iPhone.
I was able to spend about a week with the game, wasting many precious hours, staying up until the wee early hours of the morning as I played the addicting game, and tried to experience as much of it as I could before I had to send the demo back....
First off we have Stealth, err, Goldbug... I mean ELITE GUARD BUMBLEBEE by Tamo536. Straight up repaint of the Original Animated Bumblebee, but according to the reviewer the 'stingers' are now able to better fit into the arms...
And also a huge picture montage courtesy of the Japanese Transformers Image Board showing Sentinel in package, with other Elite Guard members, and with the Headmaster unit firmly placed on his shoulders.
Everybody should want to get Sentinel as soon as they can...
