Thread: No one wants Elvis robot.

  1. #1

    No one wants Elvis robot.

    It was supposed to be the highlight of the Elvis Souvenirs 2007, but it seems that nobody is interested in the Talking Elvis Heads.

    The price for the life-size head on life-size torso clad in black leather with yellow eyes and a vacuous, faraway look, has dropped again.

    According to the News & Observer Online, this talking head with a mechanically moving mouth – quote “that looked as if it had been synchronized by the sound crew from the old Godzilla flicks” – unquote – dropped from $399 to $ 299.

    Conclusion of the Observer’s article: “There were plenty left a week ago Saturday. We're guessing there are plenty left today.”

    It's a piece of crap.

    I saw it in the shops at Graceland in August and had a good laugh. Not only does it not look like Elvis, but seriously who would want such a ghastly object!

    It never should be allowed on the market in the first place. I guess they know now it was a dud.

    Yeah, big surprise!

    Sillerman ought to hang his head in shame, as should Lisa and Cilla, and anyone associated with this abomination.

    There are alot of things associated with EPE and Graceland that Cilla and Lisa should be ashamed of......an "Elvis" trash can?? It gives the anti-Elvis crowd a field day.

    Agree, it gave me the creeps, that's for sure.


    Just pretend, I'm holding you, and whispering things soft and low.
    And think of me, how it's gonna be and just pretend I didn't go

    I don't think Lisa has any say on the merchandising EPE does anymore Jen. She doesn't own much of it anymore.....what l5% so she can be easily overruled?

    Well, that's good news! it shows most of the people in the world still have their sanity
    Seriously, even if I was paid to own it, I wouldn't want of that creepy talking thing...

    it looks creepy indeed, nothing like him at all
    haha it looks a bit like my neighbour and he is not a nice man, wouldn't want his head in my sleepingroom at all...

    haha I would have nightmares every single night
    It's hard NOT to imagine Elvis as perfect; how else could someone be THAT good looking, THAT talented, THAT generous & THAT charismatic
