Kaba Kick

March 15, 2004 at 07:38 AM in

Kaba Kick is Russian roulette for kids. The player points the gun at his or her own head and pulls the trigger. Instead of bullets, a pair of feet kick out from the barrel (which is shaped like a pink hippo). If the gun doesn't fire, the player earns points.

This is by FAR the worst idea in the history of toys! You can just see all the little kiddies trying out their luck with a real gun in the not-too-distant future.

That is ridiculous. So now we need to encourage irresponsible gun use to children? Russian roulette is not a game, but a display of stupidity and disregard for life that has been glamourized into something that has killed many naive adults and children alike. Something tells me this company will be sued more than once in the near future.

I hate kids, but I love this toy.

My son and daughter have long played russian roulette with a real gun with their friends, and many of whom have died. Luckily kaba kick is on the market now and no children need to die anymore. I personally give praise to the company who came up with this toy.

2 thumbs up for Kaba Kick!!!

i do not believe the above post. It has got to be either a troll or the guy who invented the thing. A teenage russian roulette play group would have made international news. Also no one plays russian roulette "long". Statistically you only play it six times.

Hey, where did you find the Time Machine that takes back to Japan 1993?

Where's the story? I didn't find it on your site, or was I supposed to see the Joke Japanese Journalism post?

Must not be sarcasm when you come from...or is this sarcasm about the sarcasm? Or dear, this boggles the mind.
