I know exactly how you feel! Why is it that they feel like they have to reinforce packaging of toys so much? They even sew Barbie dolls’ hair to the package!
So funny…..nothing like waiting for a present and then having to wait again!
Ugh! Doesn’t packaging drive you nuts???
Isn’t that annoying!?? What were you opening?
Toy packaging is designed by Satan himself.
Aren’t those things the devil!?
PS. I have the same pair of pj pants….LOVE them!
ohhhh I hate those tie’s that hold all the toys in thebox!! They drive me nuts!
I swear I think they spend more money on those little plastic ties than the actual toy itself! So annoying…Great pictures though!
haha… getting those toys out of the packaging is definitely hard work!
Those are so annoying, at least you kept smiling.
I’m having a Valentine’s give-a-way…come on over and check it out! :D
ummm…so why are you putting them in your mouth? Talk about weird quirks!
I have seriously considered taking the toys out of their packages and THEN wrapping it. Especially for Christmas. It might make it harder to wrap, but I think you’d come out better anyway, and the not-so-patient child waiting on the toy would definitely come out better!
AmyG: It was a Mr Potato Head PlayDough set – so there were a million little pieces that the deemed needing to be roped down.
Jennifer: Because if I hadn’t put them in my mouth, my toddler would have made off with them while waiting impatiently for her new toys!! If she didn’t the cat surely would have found them entertaining. And 21 wire ties spread around the house would be MUCH worse than the original proposition!
I don’t get this. Maybe I’m missing something. Why do you have wires in your mouth?
