Every parent dreams that one day their child will grow and become prosperous and powerful. And the best way to do that is sticking it to the little guy, right? Wrong! Give your child an early head start in to the successful career of ransom making!
With this complete kit for only a dollar (USD $1) your child can have the swashbuckling adventure of holding your neighbor's cat for ransom! Long gone are the days of boys just leaving the girls out of their club, now it's simple and easy to steal little Susie's doll and hold it until all your little pirate's demands are met!
Let's not forget it also includes a bottle/flask so if the demands aren't met, you can drown your sorrows away why you're being grounded. (Or in my parents house, lashed with the whip)
Ok, so that sounds far fetched...but...personally I'm wondering exactly how a child would interact with such a toy. I'm sure that a kid would NEVER try to use this on their parents...
This was actually found at US-based retailer Target while getting things together for a cruise we took with some friends. Our friend Sally was immediately drawn to a "Pirate Clearance" area and of course, I found a way to make a few extra dollars on the high seas!!! I apologize for the blurriness but the taste of adventure made me shaky.
