Keri: Hi, this is Keri from ToyQueen.com. We’re here with Christie from
Mattel, and she’s going to show us Dance Star Mickey.
Christie: Yes. We’re really excited about Dance Star Mickey for 2010. It
really combines the strength of the Disney brand with the
success that Fisher-Price has had with their feature plushes
throughout history, including Tickle Me Elmo, Bounce Around
Tigger, and now we have the most life-like action ever with the
world’s most popular character. So, introducing Dance Star
Mickey.
So Dance Star Mickey has been dancing his little tail off all
morning. Mickey, I’m impressed, you’ve been doing great.
Mickey: Hiya pal. My new dance moves are going to knock your socks off.
I sure hope their clean, your socks that is.
Christie: Well, you seem pretty confident there Mickey. Maybe you should
show us one of your dances.
Mickey: [sings and dances]
Christie: All right. Well, Mickey you have a little soul in your step
there, a little groove going on. Now, Dance Star Mickey is just
like Dancing With the Stars. He has different moves for
different grooves. We knows six different genres of dance. That
was our soul. Let’s see if he’ll do a little Latin mambo for us.
Mickey: [sings and dances]
Christie: All right. Who knew Mickey was the Mambo king? So in addition
to his Latin and his soul, he also has techno, he has disco, he
does a throwback to an old favorite. He has a special dance move
that he’s been practicing. All right, Mickey, let’s show them.
Mickey: Are you ready?
Christie: We’re ready, Mickey. The Moon Dance.
Mickey: [sings and dances]
Christie: One more time Mickey.
Mickey: [sings and dances]
Christie: Mickey that was amazing. So in addition to his great new
dances, he also has interactive games he plays with the kids. He
plays Mickey says in an interactive free stance game. He has
tons of phrases and lots of ways to get the kids involved. He
won’t be remote controlled. He’ll be activated by buttons on his
feet and on his body. He hits shelves in October. He’ll be TV
advertised, and we’re also hoping for a spot on Dancing With the
Stars.
Keri: Thanks a lot. This Keri Wilmot from ToyQueen.com showing you
practical ways to play every day.
