I remember him in the Argos catalogue back in the good old days. It's so weird, like with the snowflake spinning snowmen, something so readily available is now so rare
We have still got ours from 2003, bought it in b&q for £49.98 sadly he was broken at my mums elderly housing Christmas party one year when they pulled his band off the motor by dancing with him holding his hands lol, the motor still whirls but it was a downward slope after that, his mouth stopped as well and thats the one part i wish was still working, as we had so much fun playing songs / karaoke with him. He still gets displayed every year but hes a mere memory of Christmas now .
Hi, can you help please? I can't get the head and mouth to move. There's a clip at the back of his head, I'm not sure whether this is the problem. Any idea's please?
Try pushing it down further just to ensure the connection is clicked in place, if that doesn’t work it could be a bad gear inside the head, for the head turning, you’ll likely need to open the body to replace the rubber belt that drives the movement if not the belt shaft gear which you can find on eBay

Nice bit of info there! They just don’t make Christmas animatronics like they used to!

That’s a shame he broke, hopefully one day he can be fixed!
I have a similar one, doesn't sing or move and shorter, lol!! Love Santas!
I love him

I inherited one of these. How do i get it to extend the legs?
Push down on his shoulders until you hear two clicks then he’ll spring up :)
IM REAL FELIZ NAVIDAD
This one is my favorite santa
Will you sell it
No I’m not sorry, I’m sure you’ll find one though this Christmas season!
I have the same model too but mine have the mouth glitched (You can see him in the channel Animated Christmas Items)
I have 2004 rare variant
Do you know the differences for all the versions ??
There are many versions made but yes, I used to have the 2003 Santa Claus is Coming to Town Variant however he fried out sadly
