 Last summer I got sucked in by the talking Beefie and Boonie dolls , so this year I though I should get hold of the new talking VB Warnie doll.
He arrived today, but the instructions have left me a bit disappointed. It looks as though he only talks during the Commonwealth Bank one day series and will
be silent after the last match. It also looks as though they have gone back to the "sit him in front of the telly and he will talk when we tell him to v
ia funky noises from your telly" mode. That didn't work too well with the first Boonie doll so it will be interesting to see how he performs. He does
n't have a mobile phone so at least he will have to talk and won't be able to resort to txt'ing! Last years dolls spoke when you least expected th
em to, but this one looks as if he will only chat during the games. He doesn't even have a button you can press to wake him up if you get a bit bored. The
price has doubled from last year, but you only have to buy one carton of beer. I'm not that keen on VB so I ring my parents and they give me the code fro
m one of their cartons!
