Looks like a hand-squeezy thingie, you know, for guys - so they can make their grip stronger? Maybe?
I agree, a stress reliever thingie? An evil booger replica?
It's basically a more expensive variant of Ugly Dolls, which are currently very hot with elementary school girls.
I just bought him and another one (El Nino) for xmas gifts. Call me a sucker who loves her Canadian dollar conversions.
I can see TexasHolly from June Cleaver Nirvana ending up with one of those!
I thought it was a uterus and fallopian tubes. Nothing quite says Merry Christmas like that!
oh, i hope it IS a pancreas because my nephew almost died in my care once. he wrecked on his bike and i was all walk it off, buddy, for like two hours. his pancrease was split in half and he was totally bleeding internally. hello flight for life and children's hospital ICU. bad aunt time infinity. i would definitely buy that for him if it IS a pacreas.
No. Really?
Sigh.
I thought it was one of these:

(I finda The Pox particularly endearing!)
Nice. I was an a toy store recently and found a whole bit of germs. Being a biology geek I found them a bit interesting, but who really wants to snuggle up next to the virus causing colds?
Why didn't I think of that? I could be making millions, right now. People are really buying those??
Looks like a variation on the Domo Monster that is currently being advertised at Target for Halloween. Crazy trends.
Jenn beat me to the Holly comment. But I was more taken with the 5000 piece millenium falcon lego thing for $500.00. Dude?
I think I'll stick to Hello Kitty stuff for my nieces. Seems like a safe bet in comparison to the green pancreas.
Pancreas, gall bladder-aortic heart valves - whatever it is, it is bizarre.
is it a plush or a squeeze toy/
Um, how dumb are we?! 1. To believe that ANYONE wants one of those toys and 2. To pay ACTUAL money for it...
I was thinking a kidney turned on its side.
I'm with Jenny. How dumb are we? That's way too much cash for that lifeless blob. It's just viral( or should I say vile?). Looks like something you can collect so I'm sure kids compete to see who can get the biggest collection. And parents get sucked in cause let's face it, they're competing, too.
I'm sorry. I would be scared that thing would come in and attack me while I'm sleeping.
I think that looks like my ovary I had to give up a few years back.....
