IF she bought it at TRU, have her take it back and return it for Geoffrey Dollars credit, then go back, grab one off the shelf, and buy it. Or better yet, order it from toysrus.com, use the January deal they have there to save $10, and sign up for (...) (25 years ago, 13-Dec-99, to lugnet.robotics)
