The '9-1-1' scooter and other worst toys for Christmas

From annoying, noisy toys that you want to hurl against the wall to just plain scary ones, here are the worst toys of 2012:

1. Novi Stars Doll: Ari Roma

Leanne Shirtliffe
This doll, who declares she's a literal 'air head,' wins my pick as the worst toy of 2012.

The winner of this year’s Skank-ification Award is Ari Roma, a doll with a skirt shorter than some people’s underwear. This alien doll looks like the girl from "Brave" was kidnapped by Lindsay Lohan and Lady Gaga for a weekend of partying. If that isn’t bad enough, she is scented and retails for $19.99. The packaging boldly declares that her mission is “To Kiss an Earth Boy” and she also boasts, “I’m an airhead. Literally.” Aim high, girls, aim high.
