As I said before, this was merely one of the many prototype versions of the ordinary items used in these videos. First, a Talk 'n' Action Cranky was never made, let alone any talking (Tomy/TrackMaster) versions of Cranky until the RC Fisher Price one.
Second, that "activation tab" is most likely a sticker that didn't make it to the final version. Stepney goes over it, and nothing happens.
