Static electricity is what set the toys off. The lightning was very close and the air around it became surged with electricity.

I have no answer but I have a lamp that was my fathers when he was a live. This lamp is the kind that you touch to light, the more you touch it the brighter it gets......sometimes during thunder storms it goes on by itself....I thought it was the loud noise so I made loud claps beside it, but it did not work. I tried shaking the dresser it was on without success...I tried pulling the plug out and putting it in again to see if it was a surge of electric power but that also failed....so if you find the right answer I would like to know........thankyou...........Peter

Since the thunder was loud it was because the lightning strike associated with it was extremely close. When you hear things you hear vibrations in the air. The vibrations associated with the thunder activated the toy you describe and caused it to be loud in your ear.

the toy is set to go off by movement, the thunder caused it to move ,, making it talk ,, I'm sure you have felt thunder shake your home,, well of course it can shake a little toy! It's nothing to do with the electric or batteries !!

The static electricity in the area caused this, I even had it happen to some of my Power Ranger figures that are 24 inches

It was probably the vibrations that caused the toy to engage
