There's a new Tickle Me Elmo in town, just in time for Christmas! This time it's Tickle Me Elmo Xtreme. The new and improved Elmo is called TMX Elmo. What's different about this new Tickle Me Elmo you ask? Well isn't it obvious? This new Elmo is Xtreme! The new Elmo TMX doll rolls around on the floor laughing and begs you to stop tickling him.

Perhaps the most extreme thing about the new Tickle Me Elmo is the reaction it's causing with consumers.

"As with the original Ticke Me Elmo doll, demand for the new toy has given rise to extreme acts by some people. One person in Tampa, Florida was allegedly threatened with a gun to hand over a TMX toy."

That sounds like that terrible Arnold Schwarzenegger Christmas movie, Jingle All The Way... damn that movie sucked. Anyway, I'd hate to get wacked over an Elmo doll! At $39.99 US surely there will be plenty to go around!
