Title: Kids NEED these toys!

2005's Most "Dangerous" Toys (http://money.cnn.com/2005/11/17/news/midcaps/dangerous_toys/index.htm?cnn=yes)

When anyone with a kid starts hinting for presents, we usually get something that makes obnoxious loud noise or has the potential to ruin furniture & carpet, but some of these look like fun.  :P

When the hell did kids becoms such wussies?  :rolleyes:  It was a badge of honor to take freshly-made Creepy Crawlers out of the BURNING HOT METAL MOLD without using the tweezers when I was in grade school. I was the only girl who would do it.

So called "dangerous toys" huh?  Anyone ever notice how it's always the stupid sheltered kid who always deceided to do something stupid with the toy to begin with?  Also, if your kid chokes on any of this shit, it's because of lack of parenting.  It kinda proves the point that if you don't want to parent your child, they're better off dead.

Survival of the fittest!  It's just natural selection at work.

Dare they defy nature?

How could anyone think a Crossbow could be dangerous.

Fucking idiotic parents, and weak ass kids.

Zero nailed it.  Remember the nine-year-old kid who was swallowing the damn rings on the LOTR bookmarks and his parunts got a lawyer because they were plated lead?  Clue-by-four upside the head for those idiots - the urge to eat nonfood items is an actual medical condition called pica and they had been doing their damn JOB as parents, they would have noticed it long before he was nine.   :rolleyes:

The ability to put out an eyes is a selling point to me.

My favorite was always the Cabbage Patch Kid that ate the little girl's hair right off her head. God damn that was hilarious. I mean, traumatic and excruciating for the kid, but still.

The Splatmatic Pistol Splat Paintball Shooter, which fires paint balls at a high velocity, also made the list because of its potential for eye, face and other impact injuries, as did Hasbro's St*r WarzzZZ - Revenge of the Sith Energy Beam Blaster, which comes with pressurized "energy-beam string canisters."

They have a friggin' paintball gun for kids?!!

5" X-men action figures with "SPARKING ACTION". Actual SPARKING action.
Real figures. We got some up in the barn.

Matches are a gift that never go out of style.
