*** A responsible competent stay-at-home mom would have buy the doll... sorry, the action figure. She would have buy the action figure, and enjoy having an "I told you" moment when Howard confessed that he still didn't have the toy "I told you, they have run out. But I got you covered, you 6 foot dummy"

** I always figured it was a kind of SecretTestOfCharacter for Howard. Liz wanted him to be more active in Jamie's life, so she didn't buy the toy thinking that he would do it as a sign that he was committed to giving their son a good Christmas. Getting the Turbo Man doll herself would have been enabling Howard's absent behavior, which she's very much aware of.

*** First off, what kind of question is that? Just because you haven't seen any other ones besides Howard, doesn't mean there aren't any. Second off, having Liz and Jamie immediately discover Howard as Turbo Man would have ruined the scene. They find out eventually anyway, and it helps that he was in costume as a super hero and was supposed to look that way. And as for his Austrian accent, i believe the costume had a voice modulator attached so that he sounded like the superhero.
