kids toys can be fun

I have always loved the old claymation Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer (1964), the one where Burl Ives sings Silver and Gold. Yes, I own my own copy. Watching it on VHS isn't quite as much fun as watching it on TV when I was a kid, where all the commercials seemed geared particularly to me. But it's still fun, nevertheless.

From time to time, I see different kids' toys based on the characters, and plastic be hanged, I want them anyway. Case in point:

Buy.com's Santa's Reindeer sleigh team looks like too much fun. The Santa really looks like the Santa from the movie. And I loved that Santa, particularly with Mrs. Claus hounding him all winter long to eat, eat! Nobody likes a skinny Santa.
