This subversive pillow of blue fur speaks 20 phrases at random including 'Hurt me, I don't mind!' and 'Do you really love me?' - I turned on the voice control and it clearly spoke a phrase right away - it takes 3 AAA batteries (not included)

Near MINT-slight aging to box (see pics).
Provenance:
Private Collection, Miami
Note:
Designed by Mike Kelley, this plush toy has a startling characteristic. Like many plush toys, when you squeeze their belly they speak, but this one speaks 20 different phrases you don't expect to hear from a toy. It says things like "Hurt me, I don't mind," and "Do you really love me?" with Original Packaging. Not appropriate for children.
