Default Talking Boony

Whats the go with Talking Boony???! I'm sitting here at home with the TV turned OFF and he is crapping on about "grabbing a VB the cricket is about to start" then earlier he said something about "where's my pants".

I thought this little figurine is only supposed to talk when the TV is turned ON and tuned to the cricket? Or do you think he has some kind of timer built in?

I'm tempted to pull it apart and see what's inside :Up_to_som

I was told he has a timer in him.. we thought that they would transmit a signal to trigger him off, but we recorder in hi definition and nothing so must be a timer...
