Saw that on TV today. What will we think of next?

B&D,

Seemed somewhat creepy to me.

Kids may be frightened by the un-natural deer. Just seems like a lot of work for little kids; candy, Santa, Christ, presents, etc...those Christmas subjects seem to overwhelm youngsters' minds as it is.

Not meant to be a Scrooge.

Amazing and pretty cool. When they try to kick it over it recovers very much like and animal would. Legs go everywhere for a few steps and it get them back under it.

The whole thing is 24 Volt and is Positive Ground!

But, but if you put an alternator in them the ground would have to be negative and they would run backward over the sled.
