Christmas Gift Guide

This is just too awesome not to put up as a gift suggestion.




This delightfully cheery playset includes a narwhal, 4 tusks (which look vaguely like lightsabers, so maybe it's an EP9 character Darth Cetacean) and 3 cute little animals you can impale!

Personally I think they should throw in another impale-ee, one for each tusk.

Exactly how penguins and narwhals encounter each other in the first place, let alone koalas, isn't explained.

For those of you who hate street mimes (hey, who doesn't) there's also The Avenging Unicorn playset.

I like the way the penguin and koala are patiently waiting their turn.

It would be interesting to know the nature of the offenses these animals have committed against the narwhal, that it now has to avenge.

That's definitely one of the more original stagings of "Hamlet" that the Donmar Warehouse has put on recently.

I think they intended it to be a polar bear but the only "bear" model they had was a koala, so they just made one of those and left it white. I mean who would ever notice?

If you go to the link for the Avenging Unicorn you will see that the bear is explicitly described as a koala, it being one of the "cuter" animals, along with the seal and penguin. I don't think that polar bears fall into the "cute" category.

The penguin and koala have a "+" symbol on their chest. I guess these are targets for the tusk?

That makes it a "positive" message about the whole massacre.

The least offensive part of this is that it contains choking hazards

Fake news toy!

"Narwhals create a sort-of vacuum and suck up their food which includes squid, Greenland halibut, shrimp, Arctic cod, rockfish, flounder, and crab. Narwhals only have two vestigial teeth. The male narwhal tusk is thought to play no role in feeding because males and tuskless females consume the same diet."
