4 Stars How do these vendors sleep at night?!
DO NOT PAY THESE PRICES. Call your local TOYSRUS and ask which days they get shipments. Then go those mornings. After 2 Tuesday trips, I had every piece I was looking for. Amazon should not allow people to price gorge like this. These vendors are the ones that go to ToysRUs and buy everything, so the supply is low then mark it up. If they didn’t do that, it wouldn’t be in short supply! Not sure how they can sleep at night!

4 Stars Great Toy, Overpriced here
This is a really cute toy and I am hoping it makes my daughters happy so I don’t have to buy a REAL hamster which is what they really want(LOL). BUT, these prices are ridiculous. Amazon is fulfilling these orders through 3rd parties who are setting the prices so I don’t exactly blame Amazon, BUT it is disappointing the way Amazon is marketing them. However, if you promised a little one these toys, this may be the only way to get them. Someone I know contacted the manufacturer and from what I understand the stores are only getting so many before Christmas and then thats it. Apparently they haven’t been able to make enough to keep up with the demand. I spoke to someone at Walmart today and they said that they already got their allotment and they won’t be getting any more before the holidays and they were sold out already. YIKES!

5 Stars zhuzhu pets
this gift was a request for christmas, sems to be the toy request for the year, great transaction thanks

3 Stars overpriced
If I hadn’t promised this toy to my Grandchild I would have NEVER have purchased it. It wss not a “zhu Zhu”,I can’t rmrember the brand, I have since purchased another at a local Toy store and realized the one I got on line was a knock off. Shame on Me, but it will never happen again.

I didn’t know this toy was so popular and my four year old (after seeing tons of commercials} asked for one, after I said yes and could find one no where in town I resorted to amazon.

My Grandchild is so happy with the pet, I accidently stopped in a toy store, they had very few left but I was able to purchase not only the Hampster, but one of the assesories She wanted for LESS money then I paid for the Hampster on line!

4 Stars Painful Days Are These
I’m more than a bit disappointed in Amazon, usually my favorite “mall” of choice. This little toy – one of “the hottest Christmas toys of 2009″ is designed to be an excellent gift in this difficult times. I picked one up a few weeks ago because it seemed interesting and I needed a small gift for a hospital party with a $[...] limit.

The child who received it was over-the-top excited and I watched the faux rodent zip, dodge and weave all across the floor. It even had all of the adults entranced and laughing.

Handed from kid to kid, dropped, run into furniture and inspected completely by ten four year olds, I believe it is pretty durable.

The other party goers agreed it was a super gift.

At [...] apiece, parents with a couple of young ones can make a super holiday splash with the little stuffed pets and their accessories. What could better as we head into what will surely be a tough holiday for so many?

I’m lucky, my son is grown so the urgency of fun stuff for a budget holiday has receded. His gifts are easy (well, sort of!). But we still have little ones in the family and I certainly recall tough years when we struggled to try and make sure all of the kids enjoyed that same delight on Christmas we had as kids.

Great toy, buy it for [...]

4 Stars 4 stars…only if you paid the $7each suggested retail price & didn’t get ripped off.
If you can’t find one of these for your kids….wait. Don’t be stupid & pay $50 or even $100 that some of these jerks are trying to get for them. They just aren’t worth it!! My son got one & likes it fine, but months ago he got another hamster like this one at Cracker Barrell that had a wheel & was every bit as cute for $15!!!! They just aren’t that special & they will be trying to give them away in stores after Christmas & the kids that got them will have lost all interest by then anyways!!!!!!

5 Stars Yay for Zhu Zhu pets – I’m glad they work. Stock up on the AAA batteries because your kids will love their new pets
I got up early and was able to get Zhu Zhu Pets hamsters at WalMart. So glad because I know they are selling out stores because I’ve been calling everywhere.

Anyway, my kids have been playing with them all day. And then hair got wrapped around the little wheel and I thought one had broke so I spent forever trying to get the hair off — but that’s not what was making an additional squealing noise and making the wheels stop turning.

The little Zhu Zhu pets hamsters just needed new batteries. They came with 2 AAA batteries from the manufacturer — and I’m sure they weren’t in the store that long so that little hands could’ve worn out the batteries thru the “try me” window.

They must’ve just come with batteries not as good as the ones I changed them into. Because I just popped in some Duracel or whatever batteries — and now the Zhu Zhu Pets run even faster than when we first bought them this morning.

My children are playing with them as I write.

Now we want all the Zhu Zhu pets in the collection — and the accessories. Maybe by Christmas or before…

1 Star If the wheel spins for you, you’re one of the lucky ones. Disappointment to my child.
I looked on youtube and saw that the wheel was working for the families that were on there. It looked cute and real so I got one for my daughter. I set it up as the directions told me to. The wheel never spun freely. The hamster will get in the wheel, get stuck, and back its way out of it. Complete disappointment to me but most importantly a disappointment to my 4 year old. The car and garage has some issues too but still works somewhat. The wheel doesn’t not work at all for us. So if you purchase this product its sort of like playing the lottery. If it works you’re one of the lucky ones. If it doesn’t, you’re stuck with a piece of crap.

5 Stars MY KIDS LOVE THESE TOYS
My kids LOVE these toys. The hamsters are very cute and ours runs on the wheel and thru the tunnels just fine. It keeps them entertained! I’m ordering more for Christmas and getting them for my neices as well.

1 Star Don’t Waste Your Money Terrible!
These toys don’t work. They get stuck constantly, the plastic tubes are cheap and break very easily. My child got very frustrated and bored quickly. Don’t waste your money. If you must try this, wait until they are at Walmart or Target for $7.

I chatter, scatter, scoot and scurry like a real hamster!

5 Stars Bought for 8 year old who loved it.
Bought this for 8 year old neice who loves to play with her pets. Loves to let it wander around on its own and carry it in her blankets and carry pouch. Sure beats buying a real hamster!

5 Stars “So Cute, just like real”
We now have 3 Zhu Zhu pets and they are adorable, just like having the real thing without the cleanup!!! Looking forward to purchasing the other items to make them a home of their own. My daughter is 8 and just loves them. I like picking them up and holding them, they are so soft.

1 Star Go go pets don’t GO
We bought two of these toys through Amazon. Both came from different sellers. One worked for about 20 minutes. The other one never moved at all. They make noises, but GO Nowhere. Now I have the headache of trying to get the MFG to return the toys as neither seller will accept returns that have been opened!!!

5 Stars Thank God these Zhu Zhu pets work! Have plenty of AAA batteries in stock…

5 Stars Super fun toy – sold out everywhere – Love AMAZON!!
Although the prices are out of this world sometimes, you can always count on Amazon to have that HAVE TO HAVE IT NOW TOY!!! If you don’t have to have it now feel free to shop store to store to store to store until you can find it. If you can afford it, Amazon will have it!!! This little hamster has brought us loads of fun!! The accessories make it even better. Have extra AA Batteries on hand because this only comes with demo batteries, so you might even have to change the batteries before you play with it for the first time. Our favorite accessory so far is the adventure ball. You can bet this is going to the be the #1 Hot Toy for 2009!

5 Stars we love ‘em!
My daughter got two hamsters (8.00 each at Walmart) and the funhouse (20.00 at Walmart) and we absolutely love them! She really wants the car, but can’t find it and can’t pay 90.00 online. We have so much fun with them, and the cat loves to watch them.

5 Stars ONLINE PRICES TOO HIGH!!!!
These are grest toys. They work great and are very cute. [...]. [...]

5 Stars Love this toy! Works just like the commercial
This is a great toy. I plan on getting my kids the rest of the add on parts to complete the city for Christmas this year. If your hamster isn’t moving like in the commercial, just change the batteries and it works perfectly! Big hit in our house!

5 Stars Love these cute hamsters!
My daughters love these hamsters! So cute!! They run and chatter – and are much cleaner and easier than a real hamster!

I am thankful to Amazon.com sellers for having these in stock! They are impossible to find! I love the convenience of not having to run all over looking for them and having them delivered to my front door! It is like having your very own personal shopper!

5 Stars Great toys!
These are a lot of fun for the kids. No problems so far. I, too, got them from Amazon, as no store by me had them in stock for weeks! It’s much easier just to buy them and have them delievered. The kids love getting packages in the mail, too. Anyway, we love these…much easier than a real hamster!
