Kids can slide down the giraffe’s back and get sprayed by its mouth in this inflatable pool.

What kid doesn't want a giant inflatable robot that acts on their commands? This 4”-plus–tall, radio-controlled man of air can even record and play back phrases in killer-robot tones. "I want one," said a resident 8-year-old bent on world domination. "Me, too," sang out a 10-year-old girl across the way. "I want to scare the dog and then dress it up. If we got two, we could have a war." Manley representatives have said it's selling well, but expect a big boost come Christmastime. "It's at a price point that it makes an easy gift decision,” one representative told TDmonthly.
