Yes, I got one for Christmas too - and it scared me to death! I'm so glad other people on here found him more than a bit scary too.
I was quite relieved when mum & dad gave him away to one of my little cousins (

) a couple of years later, having no doubt realised that I really didn't like him much at all :cry:

Re: Mr Parlanchin

It seems that a lot of people find ventriloquist's dummies scary, along with clowns & Shop Grotto Santas.

Re: Mr Parlanchin

Creepy doll and a weird name for a kid's toy. Is there a reason why he was called Mr Parlanchin? Was is based on a real ventriloquist's dummy?

Parlanchin is Spanish for talkative / chatty

Re: Mr Perlecan

I love looking at old street photos and came across this one the other day. It was taken in the West end of newcastle in the late 70's and if I'm not mistaken Mr Parlanchin is making a guest appearance!
