My 22 month old loves this tickle me elmo special edition new tricks. She dances to the music with elmo. I do need to help my daughter with pushing the sensor to activate elmo. She is learning though. We had it for 1 week so far and she loves carrying elmo around.

I rated this product very high, but need to clarify that in my mind it's a very short-lived toy and once the initial "check this out" amusement has faded it will be relinquished to a corner shelf to live away it's days.

Good: it's funny as all get out. I found myself laughing and chuckling every time I pressed it's tummy. The batteris seem to last quite a while. Reasonable price.

The not so great: it's hard (not at all cuddly like you would expect Elmo to be). It's loud. It gets boring very quickly.

He does more moves, and does them well, but he's hard as a brick, and the voice isn't as cute. Novelty item more than anything. The Elmo Pizza guy is a lot cuter, and less expensive.

I bought this toy for my son's first Christmas. He was far to young (7.5 months) to push the right spots on command and figure out Elmo's special tricks, HOWEVER... he really loves this toy! He smiles and laughs at it...he has learned to crawl towards it... sometimes he does hit the right spot and is so proud when Elmo giggles! I do wish the body was a bit more padded, however the animation built into this toy is amazing! This toy is also on the LOUD side... we have to play it in a spacious room, it scared my son in his crib or a small room. A volume control would be a nice addition.

Overall, my whole family enjoys this TMX eXtra Special Edition Elmo! We play with him several times a week!

I HAVE NEVER LAUGHED SO HARD IN MY LIFE. ELMO IS JUST ALL OF IT! I GOT HIM FOR MY LITTLE SISTER ( WHO IS IN HER 50'S) FOR CHRISTMAS. I COULDN'T WAIT TO WEB UP TO GET ALL THE EXTRA STUFF ELMO DOES AND WE ARE STILL LAUGHING OVER THOSE.
HAPPY CUSTOMER

I didn't know what all the fuss was about...now I know! My 15 mo. old daughter loves this thing! He's not your run of the mill Tickle-Me-Elmo; he has puzzles to solve (off the internet site) to find other "special" tickling tricks...like hiccuping or making goofy sounds with movements, etc. She laughs every time! My husband and I can't help but laugh as well. It is pretty cute! :)

Tickle me Elmo. It is so funny, you have to laugh. It did sit up at exactly the wrong moment right in my daughters face and it scared her so we had to put it away for a couple months. Now she is older and no longer scared of it even if it sits up when she doesn't expect. Ha! You did it again!

This Elmo toy has put the fear of God into my daughter who avoids like it's a minion from Hell. The first few times she activated him she watched curiously and a little apprehensively. After that she just cowered behind my leg and cried until he was out of sight. Every so often I bring him back out to see if things have changed for her but they haven't. Now she sees him and cries instantly with a cry that's not just that of complaint but actual fear. I hate seeing my daughter like this so this toy is gone.
Strangely she likes Elmo on TV and watches him gladly, but this doll to her represents fear.

Also, after the first few tries the doll started behaving erratically and would get stuck in certain positions (or just freeze mid sentence) or just activate on its own without anyone touching it.

Not good.

We choose this product thinking it would be basic Elmo plus additional features failing to notice that this is a older model from 2007. Only has one functional hand. Elmo's mouth is also non functional as the newer models. Lesson learnt, seller would charge for shipping for returning this product. So, we decided to keep it. Our son likes it a lot, but we think the newer models are much better.

I bought this toy for my 3 year old son for Christmas after a friend highly recommended it. I had it shipped to my work location and opened it up to see how cute it was. Many of us were laughing as hard as Elmo. This toy is good for just about any age.
