Not to be dramatic but I hope Blinky drove off a cliff and exploded

I'm gonna assume it's 'awful taste and awful execution'. This is nightmare fuel that not even a Cars straight-to-DVD rip-off could top.

I saw Blinky once on display at the CN Tower. It spoke and it spouted pre recorded messages about safety, it's eyes looked around and... obviously... blinked. Kids loved it. Adults looked horrified.
