And you thought you got strange stuff for Xmas

"Playmobil makes little figurines in the shape of hundreds of different professions, but only the Hazmat disposal crew provides children with the stark reminder that mankind's excesses will eventually doom us all"


says Cracked.com, in its roundup of The 25 Most Baffling Toys From Around the World

All the others are weirder (and less presentable) than this example, and many of them seem to be Japanese and fecal in nature (don't say I didn't warn you). But if you do need to get your little one a stripper pole for Xmas, this site will guide you.

But wait, there's more! Radar Magazine looks back at the most dangerous playthings of all time. Don't miss #4, the "Gilbert U-238 Atomic Energy Lab" (includes Uranium ore).
