The Tickle Me Elmo TMX--The Perfect Toy for Your Toddler This Christmas

The original Tickle Me Elmo doll was introduced to the market for the holiday season in 1996 and quickly became one of the most in-demand and hard to find toys in history. These dolls were literally flying off the shelves, and stores just couldn't keep up with the demand. It wasn't hard to see why. He was cute, cuddly, and had an adorable laugh that could put a smile on anyone's face. Ten years later, the Fisher-Price Tickle Me Elmo TMX was unveiled on Good Morning America amid some serious secrecy. In fact, this new, re-vamped version of the classic was probably one of the biggest secrets in toy history. And, like its predecessor, it flew off the shelves for the holiday.

Today, the TMX Elmo is still available however in very few stores (the X stands for the Roman numeral 10), and is still a best seller. The new TMX Elmo doll is like a supercharged version of the original. You can tickle him in more places, and his hysterics are ten-fold over what they were back in 1996. This doll goes absolutely crazy when you touch him on certain parts of his body, throwing hilarious fits such as squirming on his back, writhing on his side, and slapping the floor while laying on his stomach. While he's doing all of this, he's laughing like a maniac, thanks to his voice box that produces a very realistic sound. He'll even talk to you, saying things like, "You did it again!" and "Please, Elmo can't take any more!" This toy is an absolute riot.

If you want to get the Elmo TMX 10th anniversary doll for your pre-school child this Christmas, you better hurry. Tickle Me Elmo TMX is still as popular as a Christmas gift as it was 3 years ago. These dolls are already starting to fly off the shelves, and soon, you'll only be able to find him on the Internet. If you wait too long, he might not even be available there. In fact, buying on the Internet is often a better choice, because you don't have to brave the insane crowds at the mall to get to him. Just remember to keep a handy supply of AA batteries around (he takes 6), because you'll likely go through them quickly with this adorable doll. In fact, you'll probably love him as much as your kids do, and that's saying something!
