The Needies Need you to Need Them
Everyone loves to be loved and needs to be needed.
That, at least, is the tagline of a bizarre new line of plush robotic dolls called the Needies. Clingy, jealous, and possessive, Needies want nothing short of your undying love and attention--and they're prepared to fight one another to get it.
Pick one up and give him a squeeze, and he'll reward you with fond words, flattery or a special Needie song. But soon his Needie siblings will start to complain.
"Is it my turn yet?" one might sullenly whine.
"Me! Me! Me!" another may shriek.
"Throw him," a particularly desperate Needie might even command. "THROW HIM!""
Could you imagine crossing one of those things with a RealDoll???
