The placement of the limbs is bad enough, but having the camera literally act like it is taking a dump is a little much, but funny!

Camera's that print the picture right away... isn't that like 1970s Polaroid Technology?

That commercial just took something I wanted and convinced me hands down that I don't want it anymore. There must be some cultural and advertising barrier here.

@Toastie: The exact opposite happened for me...

I will ONLY buy this if I can get a case that has the arms and legs on it.
