Are these toys hot
or deadly? Let's talk about that. ( rings ) ( fire roaring ) 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."
- Yay. We're gonna be having
a rap-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 prezzies. - Prezzies. That's right.
- Prez-tents. There's a prezzie
Grinch, Link. I'm talking about World
Against Toys Causing Harm. It's an acronym for WATCH. Or, 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 one are
on the "Hot Toy 2017" list. We're going to find out just how hard it is
by playing a game. It's time for... Okay, we're going to be given
a toy to play with, and just by looking at it,
we're going to 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 going
to evaluate them and at the count of three,
Link and I will vote whether the toy is hot
or deadly. ( elf giggles ) Oh, the first one's
a baby doll. Yeah, we have these cards,
which explain what this is without telling us
where it should be. Can I-- Can I hold her? Yeah, this is
the Brianna Baby Doll, 20.99... Oh. Oh, she goes to sleep
when you-- - Yeah.
- When she lays down. She can suck her thumb
or her pacifier and lie down or sit up
just like a real baby. - Okay, so--
- 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. This 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 that Daddy
can love her, too? The daddy can love you. Most sexist toys of 2017. ( chuckles )
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-- that's not dangerous,
I guess. It's just an observation. Well, it say-- 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--
- ( gasping ) ...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 they they could get--
so they could choke on a part. I mean, how-- Is the head
on pretty good? Head's on real good. I cannot pull the head off.
I'm trying-- Yep-- Yep, don't-- Hey-- - What?
- Okay, go. I mean, a child--
If you can't do it,
can a child do it? - The neck's longer now.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah. But I could not pull
the head off, so the child's not
in any danger. Um, I can't-- Maybe the eyeballs
pop out. Here's the--
Here's the prob-- - I can't--
- Choke on those. I can't see how this
could be a dangerous toy, - but I also can't see how
this would be a hot toy.
- ( grunting ) - So we need to vote.
- Okay. Hot or deadly? Woman: Okay, here we go.
Three, two, one... ( together )
Hot. - So hot.
- Can't be deadly. Smelling hot, baby. Woman:
Brianna is a deadly toy. Wha-- no. According to WATCH, these huggable, soft dolls have removable clothing, and the pink ponytail holders are also removable, presenting the potential
for ingesting and cho-- - ( gasping )
- ( Rhett laughing ) Hey-- - Woman: As demonstrated.
- Don't play around, man. - Oh! Half a--
- Oh, no! It's not working. We got it.
All right, there we go. ( elf giggles) 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, look.
The pony can crawl. So can I. It is not crawling. As the pony moves, its head nods, and I makes
a fun "clop clop" noise. How fun is that noise? Let's listen. That's-- That's mildly fun, but it doesn't take a lot when you're basically
just a-- - Now, I'm looking for--
- ...a little, teeny child. I'm looking for
removable pink hair bows. Well, first of all, the first thing I'm seeing
is this right here. Oh, that right there. It's--
( gasping ) ( both gasp ) I don't know
why I'm choking. - ( mutters )
- It's just sympathy choking. You're right.
This string right here makes this thing
friggin' deadly. - That's super deadly.
- The rest of it just makes
it stupid. Nothing-- Nothing has-- about that pony has to do
with learning to crawl. I don't get it. I don't know, man. - I-I-- I'm ready on this.
- Maybe this is misleading, but this has got
to be deadly. Woman: Okay.
Three, two, one... - Hot.
- Deadly. I tricked you, man. I tricked you
with all this... (gasps) Woman: It's deadly. You guys were right.
It is the cord.
It chokes you. - Oh, I was wrong, actually.
- So yeah. - I switched mine up, so...
- I'm right. So Rhett takes the lead. ( elf giggles ) - Okay, whatta we got here?
- What do we have here? We have "LOL Surprise!
Big Surprise Doll." This is-- I'm being told
this is a doll. "79.99." L.L.-- "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 meant to say,
"Can I get<i> one</i>
before Christmas?" They added an "s" on Christmas
but took the "e" off "before." You don't know how to unbox it. Well, I'm not--
I don't have an unboxing
channel. I don't know. - Turn it over.
- This way? Link:
It's like a lid, yeah. I don't know. - Another reviewer said, "I--"
- ( 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." What? Oh-- And then you-- Look. You unbox this. Scratch where? Oh, look.
And then there's a little--
What is that, a candy? - No.
- You're-- Couldn't eat that one. - Must see this one.
- But what are these, though? I don't-- I don't even know
what you're doing. Two things. It's... - I can't--
- So many choking hazards. This is clothing for,
like, a little doll. - And if the kid
is ever in any--
- Like a Polly Pocket. ...ever doubting that they
should keep eating this stuff, it says,
( high voice )
"Keep going. You're doing the right thing
putting all this stuff
in your mouth." - Okay.
- You can't confirm that
with a child. And this thing--
This is-- Oh, crap, there's even more. For the big kids. 15 surprises? What is-- - This is like a...
- First of all, I'm gonna-- - ...charm fizz.
- "Add water for surprise." This is--
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. Yeah, I'm gonna play
with this later 'cause I'm very excited
about it. Woman: Okay, here we go.
Three, two, one... ( together )
Hot. This has "gimmick"
written all over it. Oh, yeah,
this is such a smart idea. 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, and we also have him to blame
for Bratz dolls. - Oh, really?
- Right. - Genius.
- Because-- Because there's so much
you can open. It's like gift within gift
within gift within gift... ( elf giggles ) I wanna know
what's happening here. Okay, these are Hand Fidgetz-- with a "z"-- spinners, $2 each-- - Can we stop them?
- ...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, this-- I mean,
this was a hot toy nine months ago. Is there something special
about these particular ones? 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. - Rhett: Okay, all right.
- Woman: With a "z". These are going to be
in a lot of stockings, or, like, grandparents are going
to give these to grandkids not knowing that it's over, I think
is what's going to 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. Y-- I think it-- it could come apart. ( gasping ) ( garbled )
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.
- ( gasping ) Hey! You just did magic
in your mouth! Did you see how you turned it
around? Yeah, I did
a fidget mouth spin. All right, let's vote. Woman:
Okay, three, two, one... - Hot.
- I think it-- it's too late to be hot. Woman:
Link, you are correct. These particular
fidget spinners are deadly because of
their premium ball bearings, which present potential
small-parts hazards,
choking hazards. - Well, that's--
- Small-parts hazards. ...that's true of
all fidget spinners. We've been living in th--
crazy world forever. - Now we're tied.
- ( elf giggles ) All right, we got us a... ♪ Red sheet over here ♪ - Okay.
- Is this... These are Razor Jetts
Heel Wheels. - Ooh.
- 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 a-- What are those--
wheelies? What do they call those things where there's, like,
a wheel inside the shoe? - Woman: Heelys?
- Heelys. 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 Heelys. Where-- Where are you-- Woman: So, Link,
you need the cinderblock, is what's gonna spark, - not the-- not this floor.
- What are you-- I'm trying to hold onto you. I know.
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 not-- I'm really afraid
to actually Woman: Link, it won't work
on this floor, so... you're gonna need to go
to the cinderblock. Oh, so it's not just
about rolling around. It's about s--
It's about making sparks. Oh! There you go. - That seems safe.
- But what about-- I would think--
So you can't just roll on them? Like you don't feel like... I don't feel--
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?
- 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. Yes, there's no way...
this is not deadly. Woman: Three, two, one... Syke!
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.
- Yeah. They're hot at the same time. ( elf giggles ) Okay. What do we have here? A three-wheeled
something or other. "Power Wheels Boomerang
12 Volt Ride On." 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.
- Okay. - Crank it up.
- ( whirring ) Oh! There we go. Go in reverse. Oh, how do you go reverse? Hey, hit--
I don't know. - All right, uh--
- There we go. Oh, yeah. - Oh!
- Oh! Oh! Oh! - Hit the--
- Okay. - Go in forward, man.
- Okay. Here, pull me. I took the camera with me. Whoa, whoa. 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. - Okay.
- Now. I'm gonna do my wheelies. Let me--
Let me reposition myself. - Let me do my--
- Sorry, camera. I'm just gonna grab right here. Is this okay? Aah! All right, back up.
One more time. This is fun. Ho! - Okay.
- It's not dangerous at all. ( grunting ) - ( panting ) 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. There you go. Here. Are you trying
to hit everything? No, I'm tryin'--
I'm trying to drift. It's not really--
It's not really great
for a three-point turn. Yeah, I need a--
I need a larger area. - All right.
- Woman: You ready? Three, two, one... - Hot! Yeah.
- 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? - Yeah.
- Yeah. The Spyder. Right? Pretty cool. All right, so, Rhett,
that means-- - Is that-- So, wait--
- I win. And that means I get to keep
this frickin' thing. Yeah, Rhett's gonna be
driving down the 101 this afternoon. Yes, I am. Click through
