    Great comments on Iron Man's sayings, still quite incredible how much can be said about a toy.
    I never had many toys which actually said something..I just have the JP Tyrant which stomps and growls I think and a car which had a grenade launch sound which even started to irritate me in the end.

    Oh wait..I just remembered a thing where you had to drive a car (police car, ambulance, firetruck) over a certain spot and it would get an assignment.

    I was just kind of shocked when I took the toy out of the box and that's ALL he said - at least Hulk has old faithful Hulk SMASH to fall back on.
  • At the risk of being investigated by NAPCAN, I'm afraid to say we have a strict "No Toys That Make Noise" policy in our house. It has meant that on occasion we have had to hand back toys to well-meaning grandparents (with the buttons super-glued down, and a sign attached saying "WHAT WHERE YOU THINKING!!!"); in a household with six kids under eleven you have to make some tough choices to try to keep your sanity - they make enough noise as it is without noisy toys!

    That, and the battery demands!

    So, sorry, all our action figures are mute!

    I completely understand that! Actually growing up I didn't really have any noisy toys either, so who's buying these things apart from the odd man-child (growing the moustache is going to make me ALL man and no doubt I will put away childish things...NAH)
  • The mo-less man-child here hasn't put away childish things - if the government suddenly decided to tax a household by how much lego is in that household, we would have to declare bankruptcy! Ahhh, simple pleasures!
