Tiny, crawly, desk turtles

The latest fun from Dynamism, the same folks who brought you USB Sushi;

"Walkie Bits" Turtles for your desk! (tail wagging included.) You can almost hear them go; "ehn-erhne, ehn-erhne" with each step.

doooweeee they are le cute.: pistache268; | Mar 25, 2006 at 03:36 PM

That's kind of cool. I would get one, but it would probably end up falling on the floor getting stepped on!: Ambersoe; | Mar 25, 2006 at 04:53 PM

Look on ebay -- they are a bit cheaper: lordofthedead; | Mar 25, 2006 at 05:32 PM

Be careful of what you wish for! I became a box-turtle mommy for 2 years! It's not as easy as it seems. Raised 3 from eggs but only two lived (I released them in a park near by :o} They need a whole lot more care than a BOX let me tell ya! b/t/w... lettuce has no nutrional value to them. They need a heat source and lighting. You also need to sprinkle this stuff on their food (omg...been so long ago!... think it's called Nutra-cal or something(?!) It keeps their shell hard and that's really important when you go to release them. They have tons of predators and their shells are their main defense. sings...***ninja ninja turtle!***: Carlisa; | Mar 25, 2006 at 07:36 PM

um...but those aren't box turtles. whatever, those are ADORABLE and me wants one.: Lyanna; | Mar 25, 2006 at 07:43 PM

turtles wag their tails when they're happy?: adrianna; | Mar 26, 2006 at 03:40 AM

Lyanna--- it just brought back sweet memories of my box turtle babies. I really miss them. These things are cute! Does anyone no the dimensions because I couldn't find it (?) I want one for my desk, too! :o): Carlisa; | Mar 26, 2006 at 05:49 AM

here's an eBay listing with a video of the cuties in action: http://cgi.ebay.com/Best-Inventions-Turtle-Robot-Walkie-bits-CHOCOLATE_W0QQitemZ6045690696QQcategoryZ232QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem looks like you can get them for around $10 including shipping from other eBay sellers.: Viv; | Mar 26, 2006 at 06:38 AM

oops, make that $20...I should learn to never post to anything when i've just woken up 5 minutes ago ;-): Viv; | Mar 26, 2006 at 06:39 AM

aaawwww so kute!!^-^: Gomez; | Mar 26, 2006 at 06:44 AM

I saw those while over in Japan last September. They are super cute and I regret that I didn't buy them. I never got to see one that was walking so I'm not sure how well they work. They were only about $6 there so eBay might be the way to go if you want one.: Raquel; | Mar 26, 2006 at 07:05 AM

Viv--- thanks!!!! I think I'll order one for my little boy and if it happens to walk across my desk, it's not MY fault! :oP***: Carlisa; | Mar 26, 2006 at 07:06 AM

Not made by Dynamism. Just distributed by them. Made by Takara. You can get them at hlj.com rather cheaper. there is an order stop on them now, but once they get them in stock at the end of next month they should open the orders up again and they'll keep restocking week to week. Shipping cost shouldn't be bad because they are so small.: Kendosan; | Mar 26, 2006 at 07:48 AM

That's cool, Kendosan. Will have to shop around I guess. Thanks for this info as well :o) Approx what size are these? I still haven't found out.. (r they palm size or larger? exacts not needed): Carlisa; | Mar 26, 2006 at 08:01 AM

for god's sakes, they're toys! cute toys tho! I think that they are copying micropets but hey.: Lucia; | Mar 26, 2006 at 08:11 AM

...thanks Lucia... I thought they were REAL: Carlisa; | Mar 26, 2006 at 08:26 AM

There's a page on the official site for them with a few videos of these in action... http://www.takaratomy.co.jp/products/walkiebits/play/index.html: Marty; | Mar 26, 2006 at 08:32 AM

WHOA! Why does everything on that site have to be SO expensive! $250 for a sushi USB?!: Lucas; | Mar 26, 2006 at 09:54 AM

I was going to buy several, until I realized how much they were. Now I probably won't even buy one. :(: Kym; | Mar 26, 2006 at 10:12 PM

i would so have these on my desk at work if i didn't look like an arse playing with them. haha: christina; | Mar 27, 2006 at 12:02 PM

I got get me one of those :): JoJoVix; | Mar 27, 2006 at 05:37 PM

wait a second....... do turtles go ' ehn-erhne' ??????? confusing! what is so cute about these things? i can kinda see it but not really. they're not as cute as some of the puppies!: lucia; | Mar 29, 2006 at 10:55 PM

They are not $30, they actually come out to be $40 when all is said and done. But that didn't stop me from making my boyfriend buy me one! :) Now I have my cute little Tangerine (that's his name :P) sitting in his little orange tin on my desk.: Adalia; | Jul 14, 2006 at 04:25 PM
