Nerf Laser Tag System 2 Pack 2009

The new 2009 Lazertag System 2 Pack is a fun action game for kids age 8 year old and up. This set comes with 2 Phoenix LTX taggers (guns) for competitive fun. If you have a friend with the same set, then groups of more than 2 people can play and that’s when this game can become even more fun.

The taggers will light up and have several sound effects to create an interactive experience. There is a rumble pack that vibrates when you’ve been hit and a recoil effect that sounds with each shot fired. There is also a “shield” feature that can keep you from being hit while on the move. You may want to stock up on batteries, this 2 pack will need 12 AA batteries to get the game started.

This is the newly updated version of laser tag for 2009. The game can be played inside or outside!

Elmo Tickle Hands Toy by Fisher Price

New for 2009 are the Elmo Tickle Hands by Fisher Price. Designed for kids age 18 months old up to around 6 years old, these big Elmo hands bring giggling fun to toddlers. The Tickle Hands are sized so that young kids can wear them on their hands and when they touch something, Elmo’s hands will vibrate and you hear the sound of Elmo giggling and laughing. The Elmo Tickle Hands include a DVD that teaches kids a fun new dance.

This 15 second video is the commercial by Fisher Price and shows kids playing with the Elmo Tickle Hands.
