Dave The Funky Shoulder Monkey is poised to be this year's Christmas sell-out toy. It's not the most sophisticated toy on the market but it's remote controlled with a repertoire of rude gestures which has been tipped as a Christmas favorite by the big toy shops. This kind of 'virtual pet' gift was very popular last year and this cheeky Monkey is expected to be huge this year.
The British independent toymaker Wow! Stuff, have warned that they are unlikely to meet the demand leading up to Christmas and could end up being the toy every child wants but no parent can buy. Toys R Us are behind the surge in demand in the US where they have listed Dave The Funky Shoulder Monkey among its top Christmas buys across its 580 stores there. The toys are made in two factories in China and they have just opened a third to cope with demand. Originally planned to supply 250,000 of the toys with 200,000 of those in the UK, the third factory will boost production by another 450,000 but many of those will not arrive on the shelves in time for Christmas. The UK should receive around 70% of its demand but only around 10% of the US demand of around one million Monkeys will be met in that time. Parents are being urged to shop extra early this Christmas to avoid being disappointed.
Dave The Funky Shoulder Monkey is very engaging and although primarily aimed at the 5 to 12 age range, he seems popular among young people up to 24 years old and beyond. Described by some as simply irresistible, he can be charming, adorable, cute and mischievous all at the same time.
The Monkey is mounted on the shoulder and at just 20cm (8 inches) tall, looks very realistic, like a small black squirrel monkey with white fur around his pink face and has pink hands and feet. He is operated with a remote control unit which can make it sing, laugh, break wind, burp, blow raspberries and turn its head and wave. With the remote control hidden away in your pocket, you can interact with your friends and passers-by and they will think it is a real cheeky Monkey, performing tricks and amusing everyone.
Dave The Funky Shoulder Monkey comes in an attractive gift box containing the monkey and the remote control unit. All you will need is a 9V battery to bring him to life.

Santa Claus: The Movie - Widescreen Subtitle AC3 Anniversary $12.99 After introducing how Santa and Mrs. Claus came to the North Pole and began their work delivering toys at Christmas time, this routine children's film segues into a story about an evil corporate magnate (John Lithgow). One of Santa's elves (Dudley Moore) goes to work for the nasty tycoon and invents a wild array of far-out toys. Then there is a little boy who does not believe in Santa Claus and a girl who finds out about the toymaker's plans to defraud his company. Santa's reindeer are a little under the weather, not to mention Santa himself. This labyrinth of subplots quickly draws attention away from the story, wherever it is. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, Rovi |
