A Whole New Lamp…
The Disney Aladdin Magic Genie Lamp is a great concept that doesn’t exactly live up to the hype. Much like a Magic 8 Ball, you’re supposed to ask it a question, rub it and wait for an answer. This particular fortune-telling lamp is supposed to light-up, shake and answer you.
However, even after multiple attempts (including firmly tapping on it) the lamp remains unresponsive and that’s even with multiple battery swaps. Children want a toy that isn’t complicated and actually works With a hit or miss toy like this, chances are a child toss this in a corner once they see its not working
If Aladdin had this lamp in the movie, it would have never worked long enough for him to get Princess Jasmine.
