Chatimals any good?

[hmc]

Looked at the reviews on Amazon and they are inconclusive. Anyone got a chatimal - are they good toys?

Most annoying thing my mother has bought my DD in a while! Only repeats last phrase said to it but does about 3 recordings in a row before "turns off" and needs paw pressing again! Have seen Dave the monkey and of all the annoying toys would prefer that!
DH has described it as prime target for a sledgehammer!

I have got one for dd1 after she saw them on you-tube (there are some great clips on there), i have had a little go with it , i think dd1 will love it.

No idea but I have got DD the meerkat one fro Christmas after someone suggested it earlier it the year - my DD has been obsessed with meerkats since she was tiny. Only had a quick go but I am sure DD will love it - it may have to live in her room though, lol.

Have got dave the funky shoulder monkey for ds MrsSnaplegs, was thinking of something similar for dd. I saw the u-tube clip with Jeremy Paxman and a chatimal Marne....

Think I might go for it!
