If you haven't fully stuffed your stockings yet, Oahaca's ready to join the sock party. Just don't get him too wound up before Christmas morning - he gets a little wild and unruly at the pull of a string.
Once you're ready to see Oahaca dance, give a yank to his Saturn head, and either hold on to the pull-string and guide it back along his stainless steel spine, or let it go, and see what the space-age beast gets up to on his own.
The Oahaca is part of a Kikkerland family of windups with double spinning off-center weights and a pull-string. If ol' Saturn Noggin isn't your thing, you can also check out Awikia, Bonga, Critter, Le Pinch, Ping Ling, Spinney, Zecar....
The Oahaca Pull-String Windup Toy is a top Dude Gift for a Kid pick.
