Are these toys hot or deadly? – Let’s talk about that. (upbeat music) Good Mythical Morning. – Big ol’ festive show today, guys. We’re gonna be building a ginger beard house. That’s right, I said ginger beard. We’re gonna be having a wrap off, the likes of which you have never seen. But first, it’s the holidays and the main reason to celebrate the holidays in this wonderful, materialistic, capitalistic world is people buying you pressies. – Pressies, that’s right. – Presidents. – There’s a pressie Grinch, Link. I’m talking about World Against Toys Causing Harm, that’s an acronym for WATCH. Actually WATCH is the acronym for that. And they basically have sucked all the fun right out of the holidays because they’ve released their annual 10 most dangerous toys list. – Ooh. – Now according to the Mythical Crew, it’s difficult to tell which toys are on the most dangerous list and which ones are on the hot toy of 2017 list. We’re gonna find out just how hard it is by playing a game. It’s time for Will This Toy Bring the Thunder or Will it Put Me Six Feet Under? – Okay, we’re gonna be given a toy to play with and just by looking at it we’re gonna have to decide if it is on the WATCH 10 Worst Toys list of 2017 or the Toys R’ Us Geoffrey’s Top 20 List of Hottest Toys of 2017? – Yes, so we’re gonna evaluate them and at the count of three Link and I will vote whether the toy is hot or deadly. – Oh the first one’s a baby doll. – We have these cards which explain what this is without telling us where it should be. – Can I hold her? – Yeah, this is the Brianna Baby Doll. 20.99. – Oh, oh she goes to sleep when she lays down. – Yeah, she can suck her thumb or her pacifier and lie down or sit up just like a real baby. – Okay so– – Guys, that’s not just like a real baby. I’ve had two of them and I know they do not behave like this and they are really never that small. This is from the manufacturer. – I’m looking for sharp parts. – The sweet smelling soft bodied baby doll is just waiting for a little mommy to love her. – Now I will say– – Why’s it gotta be just a mommy? Can’t it be the daddy can love her, too? – The daddy can love you. – Most sexist toys of 2017. Different list. – Now I’m trying to, I’m trying to put the index finger in her mouth so if she wanted to suck that and that won’t happen so that’s, that’s not dangerous, I guess. It’s just an observation. – Well, it says that she’s sweet smelling. – Oh, I see the danger now. If you’re smelling her then this gets sucked up your nose or in your mouth. You could choke. You could choke on one of the ponytails. And that makes this very dangerous. – This is, I don’t– – There’s nothing dangerous about this. – I don’t think a kid could get lost in that, I don’t think they could get sick and choke on a part. I mean, is the head on pretty good? Head’s on real good. – I cannot pull the head off. – Don’t, okay, go. I mean a child, if you can’t do it, can a child do it? – I mean, the neck’s longer now. But I could not pull the head off. So the child’s not in any danger. I can’t– – Maybe the eyeballs pop out. – Here’s the problem – Choke on those. – I can’t, I can’t see how this could be a dangerous toy but I also can’t see how this would be a hot toy. So we need to vote. Hot or deadly? – [Woman] Okay, here we go. Three, two, one. – [Both] Hot. – So hot. – Can’t be deadly. – Sweet smelling, hot baby. – [Woman] Brianna is a deadly toy. – No! – [Woman] According to WATCH these huggable, soft dolls have removable clothing and the pink ponytail holders are also removable, presenting the potential for ingesting and choking. (yelling) As demonstrated. – Don’t play around, man! – Oh no, it happened again. (yelling) We got it, there we go. – Okay, Link, this is the Tolo Pull Along Pony. It’s 19.99. It helps babies master crawling and walking. – How? – So it’s a teacher. – How, oh, the pony can crawl, so can I. It is not crawling. – As the pony moves, it’s head nods and it makes a fun clot, clot noise. How fun is that noise? Let’s listen. That’s mildly fun but it doesn’t take a lot when you’re basically just a– – Now I’m looking for, I’m looking for removable pink hair bows. – First of all, the first thing I’m seeing is this right here. – Oh that right there. (screaming) – I don’t know why I’m choking. It’s just sympathy choking. – You’re right. This string right here makes this thing freaking deadly. – That’s super dangerous, man. – The rest of it just makes it stupid. Nothing, nothing about that pony has to do with learning to crawl. I don’t get it. – I don’t know, man. – I’m ready on this. – Maybe this is misleading but this has gotta be deadly. I don’t know. – [Woman] Okay, three, two, one. – Hot. – Deadly. – I tricked you, man. I tricked you with all those (gasping). – [Woman] It’s deadly. You guys were right, it is the cord. It chokes you. – Oh, I was wrong, actually. I switched mine up. The Rhett takes the lead. – Okay. – What do we have here? We have L.O.L. Surprise! Big Surprise Doll. This is, I’m being told this is a doll. 79.99! L.O.L Surprise! provides the ultimate unboxing experience. – What? – Oh. Unbox it, Rhett. 50 never before seen prizes inside. One reviewer said can I get on before Christmas? – I think they tried to say can I get one before Christmas. – They added an S on Christmas but took the E off before. You don’t know how to unbox it. – I don’t have an unboxing channel. I don’t know. – Turn it over. – [Rhett] This way? – [Link] It’s like a lid, yeah. – [Rhett] I don’t know. – Another reviewer said. (gasping) What is that? – Look at all those things that you can choke on. – Pick me, pick me, yoo-hoo, keep going. What is this? Scratch here. – Oh, and then you, look, you unbox this. – Scratch where? – Oh look, and then there’s a little, is that candy? – No. – Couldn’t eat that one. Let’s see this one. – What are these though? I don’t, I don’t even know what to do– – Two things. – It’s, I can’t– – So many choking hazards. – This is clothing for like a little doll. – The kid is ever any– – Like a Polly Pocket. – Ever doubting that they should keep eating this stuff it says keep going. You’re doing the right thing putting all this stuff in your mouth. – Okay. – You can’t confirm that with a child. – [Link] Oh crap, there’s even more. – For the big kids. – 15 surprises. This is like a charm fizz. – Add water for surprise. What is it? You know what– – Oh and look, there’s even bigger ones. – Oh gosh. – What the crap? This is the most awesome, hottest gift of the year. – This is a super hot toy. I’m gonna keep playing with this later ’cause I’m very excited about it. – [Woman] Okay here we go. Three, two, one. – [Both] Hot. – This has gimmick written all over it. – Oh yeah, this was such a smart idea. – [Woman] You are both correct. It is hot. In fact, it is so hot the creator and CEO of this company is worth 1.17 billion dollars and we also have him to blame for Bratz Dolls. – Oh really? – Right. – Genius. – Because there’s so much you can open. It’s like gift within gift within gift within gift. Oh I know what’s happening here. Okay. – These are Hand Fidgetz, with a Z, Spinners. $2.00 each. Premium ball bearings. The manufacturer says spin it once and watch the long lasting action. – Sweet and sassy, never stop dreaming. That’s what these two are. Now, I mean, this was a hot toy nine months ago. – Is there something special about these particular ones or is this just a fidget spinner in general? Or is this a specific brand? – [Woman] I think it’s a specific brand of fidget spinners, with a Z. – These are gonna be in a lot of stockings or like grandparents are gonna give these to grandkids not knowing that it’s over. I think is what’s gonna happen. So I mean, I don’t think Geoffrey at Toys R’ Us is stupid enough to put this on the hot list. But what can be dangerous about this, choke on it. I think it could come apart. (gasping) It’s stuck. I’m gonna have to grab it out. It catches on the sides of your cheek, try it. No way you can spit that out. Ah, you just did magic in your mouth. Did you see how you turned it around? – Yeah, I did a fidget mouth spin. (audience laughing) All right, let’s vote. – [Woman] Okay, three, two, one. – Hot. – I think it’s too late to be hot. – [Woman] Link, you’re correct. These particular fidget spinners are deadly because of their premium ball bearings which present potential small parts hazards, choking hazards. – So that’s true of all fidget spinners. We’ve been living in that crazy world forever. Now we’re tied. All right. We got us a red sheet over here. – Okay, these are Razor Jetts Heel Wheels. 25.49. Sparking wheels for your sneakers. Transform your ordinary sneakers into the hottest way to roll. – I put them on my shoes, Rhett. You know what that means. – So Link, you’re putting them on over there. I’m gonna grab, oh, one of them out of here. So this is kind of like, what are those, Wheelies? What do they call those things where there’s like a wheel inside the shoe? – [Woman] Heelies? – Heelies, that’s right. – Yeah, and one review says they work best if two adults surround the child and hold him up. Boy, that takes all the fun out of it, doesn’t it? – All right. – Try them, man. – I’ve never tried actual Heelies, so. – [Woman] So Link, you need the cinder block is what’s gonna spark. Not this floor. – I’m trying to hold onto you. – No, I want you to do a real test. Like actually, actually just, you gotta just run and then just go onto your heels. – It ain’t that easy if you’ve never done it. – Boy, it looks so fun. – I’m really afraid to actually– – [Woman] I think it won’t work on this floor so you’re gonna need to go to the cinder block. – Oh, so it’s not just about rolling around. It’s about, it’s about making sparks. Oh, there you go. – [Link] That seems safe. – But what about, I would think, so you can’t just roll on them? Like you don’t feel like? – I feel like I would just hit my head on the ground if I tried to roll on these. – Well let’s find out. Okay yeah, seems a little unsafe. – See. – [Rhett] Seems a little unsafe. – It would be the fire that I started and then I’d fall backwards into the fire. – There’s so many ways that these could be dangerous. – Yeah, there’s no way this is not deadly. – [Woman] Three, two, one. – Sike, changing to hot. I faked you out, man. – [Woman] Oh, come on, these are totally deadly. – Yes! – They are? – Yeah, man. – But they’re pretty cool. Pretty hot, too, right? – They’re hot at the same time. Okay. – What do we have here? A three wheeled something or other. Power Wheels Boomerang 12 Volt Ride On. – [Rhett] I’m riding on it. – $350. – Oh gosh. – Perfect for your– – Is it for men my size? – It says ages 12 months and up. – I’m up. – Are you up? – I’m up from that. – Okay. Crank it up. Oh! There we go. Go in reverse. – Oh, how do you go in reverse? – Hit, I don’t know. – There it– – There we go. Oh yeah! – Oh, whoa, oh, oh, oh. – Hit the– – Okay, okay. – [Link] Go in forward, man. Here, hold me. – I took the camera with me. Whoa, whoa, whoa. – Hold on, I’m trying to go with the wheels, man. Back up. – Okay. – Back up. – I think you’re supposed to fit a little bit better than this. – Back up here. Oh stop, stop, stop. Now, I’m gonna do my wheelies. – Let me reposition myself. Sorry camera. – I’m just gonna grab right here. Is this okay? (laughing) All right, back up. One more time. This is fun. Oh. Okay. – It’s not dangerous at all. (grunting) Okay. – Okay. All right, that thing will go up to five miles an hour. He’s doing donuts. I’m out of breath and I wasn’t even on the thing. All right, here you go. Here. Are you trying to hit everything? – No, I’m trying to drift. – It’s not really, it’s not really great for three point turns. – Yeah, I need a larger area. – All right. – [Woman] You ready? Three, two, one. – [Both] Hot! – That thing is hot! It’s missing a wheel and it’s hot. – [Woman] Yeah, of course these are hot. Haven’t you seen the adult versions on the road? (laughing) – The Spyder, right? – Pretty cool. All right, so Rhett, that means. – I win! And that means I get to keep this freaking thing. – Yeah, Rhett’s gonna be driving down the 101 this afternoon. – Yes I am. – Click through the next video to see us make a delicious gingerbread beard. That’s what I said, with a very special guest. – [Rhett] Let’s talk about that some more.
