Mainstream media seems to be deceptive at every turn....if you watch the video at :53 (and ignore what the reporter is saying) you will see that Ebay auction was actually for four items. That comes to a price of just a little more than $38.25 per item. Still a lot, but a far cry from what was actually reported.
A good lesson to remember each time you watch the news.
They wouldn't still sell Zhu Zhu pets if they had toxic stuff in them, let alone ship them to New Zealand! WHAT?? $10?? OVER HERE THEY CAN GET UP TO $30!!!! Thats only in stores! BTW Yesterday I was searching for a Zhu Zhu Pet and I went through 2 without any, just their house's and clothes!!! Finally I found them, Now i have Peachy!!
Ugh why are you people even bothering fighting about this?.. DONT LIKE THEM DONT BUY THEM PERIOD. And dont go around annoying people with stupid comments. ^^
My mom got me a zhu zhu petfor Christmas for 10 dollars and there was only 10 left! Boy am I lucky! I still am not sure if i think they are safe yet if they arnt im selling mine on ebay starting at 5 dollars. I already sold 3 brown 5 white and 9 yellow. my grandma works at a place where they sell zhu zhu pets so she buys them and gives them to my mom to sell. when i told her i wanted one that is when my grandma got caught and couldnt give me any more! horrible right!!!! :D
How the hell are they hard to find? I just went to Toyrus and they were stocked! They're shitty toys! They're only $10 because kids are going to demand habitats for them, which will probably end up costing hundreds of dollars unknowingly over time. If I want one, I'll get one, go to petco an pick up a hamster ball, and watch the little toy run around until the battery runs out. That's all I need out of a fake pet.
lol morons yeh they are dangerous! i mean i mean NO no they arent , they are just fine please continue to buy them lord dont stop buying them because they pose a risk to your beloved child! ........fucking morons
Yeah, that is if your child picks up a hammer and smashes it (or numerous other ways... use your imagination) and chokes on the gears and any other various internals.
the metal isn't dangerous unless you expose someone to high levels (or unrefined) amounts of the metal.
theres dangerous chemicals and compounds found in almost everything around us. everything has a limit between being useful and becoming dangerous... xD
Im aware of that but what I am pointing out is there should be an emphasis in eliminating all dangerous substances as opposed to setting "tolerable" limits. Because despite the fact a product may have a small amount deangerous compounds in it daily exposure to enough different products can cause harm.

more like a random company (goodguide) is looking for attention so they say the hottest toy of xmas 09 is toxic.

Notice they said limits and not absence of the metal. Thats like say the soup is OK, the rat feces in it does not exceed goverment limits.
