Remember the Tickle Me Elmo craze that swept through the entire world a few years ago during Christmas? Parents were at the mercy of shop owners who took advantage of capitalism and jacked up the price to insanely high levels. Fisher Price executives must have sat down and discussed about their upcoming holiday plans, deciding it is better not to reinvent the wheel. Hence, the Tickle Me Elmo Extreme Edition (what, and no Pentium chip inside?) is currently going for $40 with the benefit of improved AI and robotics as well as new tickle sensors to make Elmo laugh loud and hard enough to pick up the gold medal at the Clown Olympics.
