I Want Zhu Zhu Pets!

Posts Tagged ‘Wheel’

This being hottest childrens toy is hard to find!  The Zhu Zhu Pets Hamsters are advertised at Target and Walmart, but you might reckon they’ve gone extinct.

You’ve doubtless gone from store to store trying to find Zhu Zhu Pets, only to see empty shelves and “sold out” signs.  Stores have been even putting limits on how many hamsters can be bought at one time in an attempt to stop people from road sign them!

This is akin to Christmas’s past.  Do you dredge up Cabbage Patch Kids, Beenie Babies or Star Wars toys?  It’s unfortunate, but the toy companies with intent manipulate their inventory and shipments to keep have a supply of low and plea high.

Combine that with a handful of people keen to profit from the frenzy, and you have the perfect storm.  Supply and plea will dictate that prices will go through the roof!  If you can wait (and make it through the screaming and tears of disappointment) until after the new year, I can nearly guarantee that you’ll see the prices drop to the retail price.  I cringe at paying up to $100 for an 8 dough toy, but if you’ve got to have it, you’ve got to have it.

You will find pretty much all of the Zhu Zhu Pets and their accessories through this link to amazon. What you will find is third party vendors who have snapped them up from the stores and then are reselling them as a merchant on Amazon.com for a profit.

You could always try vacant to the retail stores or getting on the Toys R Us waiting list… you might get lucky.  Maybe if your kids are ancient enough, they will know a “coupon” for one after the new year. (not MY 4 year ancient though :p)

As you doubtless know, the Zhu Zhu Pets are 4 pet hamsters.

The well-known 4 pets are NumNums, Chunk, Mr Squiggles and Pipsqueak. You can get them in different sets with or without accessories.  Their houses and toys can be bought as extras.   All this adds up to a fantastic gift wrap for kids this Christmas. Building your own incredible zhu zhu pets home is incredibly fun and will certainly please even the most grouchy children.

All the fun of a hamster without the mess and they’re always forthcoming. Super cute and fluffy.

HOW DO ZHU ZHU PETS WORK?

They’re array powered, Nuzzle Fun and No Mess.  Zhu Zhu Pets include two play modes: cultivation mode where the hamsters coo and purr and adventure mode where the hamsters explore their habitat with intelligent audio and mechanical responses to innumerable habitat stimuli. Each Zhu Zhu Pets Hamster has its own unique personality and quirky sounds!

They sometimes go by different names such as zhu zhu pets, zhu zhu, zoo zoo pets, hamsters, mr squiggles, and go go pets in the UK.  Like real hamsters, Zhu Zhu Pet hamsters have to have a place to live and play. There’s an assortment of play sets that can be bought for tons of fun for your child’s new pet. These playsets include the Hamster Funhouse, the Hamster Bed and Blanket, the Hamster Carrier and Blanket, the Go Go Adventure Ball, the Spiral Slide and Ramp, the Hamster Car and Garage, the Surfboard and Sleep Dome, the Skateboard and U-turn Ramp, and the Hamster Wheel and Tunnel .
