How cute, he’s got a litte…chainsaw??
Posted by Tobias under Baby gear 'n' stuff

Saw this (surprisingly realistic) chainsaw in the baby/toddler toy section while doing the registry shopping…
Uhh…what the?
It was right next to the baby toys, though it may have been intended for toddlers or tykes. Even so, kinda creepy, don’t ya think? Maybe in the backwoods of the Northwest this toy would make sense…
I can see it now: “Awww… Hey Fran, isn’t it cute how they all scatter across the playground when little Billy waves the running chainsaw?” (Yes, it’s battery operated.)
Maybe I saw just too many scary movies when I was young…
-T
P.s. I wonder if they have any package deals with this and a hockey mask?
P.p.s. I don’t want to be a corporate conspiracy theorist, but did you notice the huge “BOSCH” logo? Brand ‘em while they’re young?

Reminds me of our wedding. My father-in-law gave us a gun. I was stunned and shocked and did not get it. Andrew later explained it to me as a “rite of passage” type thing.
It is quite amazing the things they come up with and what sells. Do you want that hockey mask in white or baby blue?

Well, now that you’ve “felt something” there’s only one thing for me to do…..buy clothes :-)!

Rebecca,
Guns for wedding presents? Awesome! Y’know, I mean, in a reaaaaaaally non-romantic way. Hahahahahaa, actually, the more I think about it the more I crack up!
Cynthia,
I agree. I think you’ve definitely heard from the Lord on this…
