So when Harry Potter and the
Philosopher’sSorcerer’s Stone came out, one of the tie-in toys was a vibrating Nimbus 2000, and I thought that was a totally bold move (knowing something about child development)On one hand our moral guardians also thought it was a bold move, in fact too obvious and too spicy. All the unsold Vibrating N2Ks got recalled, and the ones left suddenly became super pricey on the secondary market.
Years later when I shared this story with my girlfriend, she had raised three daughters and noted versions of the bumble ball vibrates and is meant specifically for experimentation. We just don’t want to market vibrating toys to tweens in the form of a broom you put between your legs. That’s a bit too on the mark.
