    Strangely, despite absolutely everything about an eleven year old with a pipe as a disguised weapon being wrong, it is still somehow a relic of a more innocent age….

    PMSL. When I was doing a lot of event photography , there was nearly always someone ( Life and soul of the party?) getting in the way and wanting their photo taken. A toy camera with a water pistol built in often caused a lot of mirth amongst their friends as I gave them a faceful.

    Very James Bond. This toy reminds us that trying to sell things by tempting kids to behave more like adults is not an entirely new phenomenon.

    It looks like the kind of stocking filler that would hold a kid's attention for about 10 minutes.
