March 20, 2013 -- intro: intro: It's no wonder that toys coming to life can be both the subject of sweet, iconic, heartwarming tales for children and adults alike, as well as total nightmare fodder used in horror movies. Toys can very, very easily go from the lovable playthings of our childhood to demonically-possessed killing machines that stare at you while you sleep. And knock-off toys? Well, they have the uncanny ability to be hilarious, sad and terrifying all at once, adequately preparing children for an adulthood rife with online dating.
