Zoobles 'Spring to Life' Toys Overview

Ranked #5,883 in Hobbies, Games & Toys, #73,004 overall

What are Zoobles?

Zoobles were introduced in the United States around August of 2010 and have become available in additional countries since. For those familiar with Bakugan, they can best be described as Bakugan targeted towards girls. (We offer a wide range of Zoobles Toys on our website, www.ToyGamingEmporium.com and plan to expand our Bakugan section soon!) They don't fight or battle or have any sort of game associated with them. They are just simply super cute! Each comes with its own 'happitat' (habbitat but 'happy') on which it can 'Spring to Life.' Like Bakugan, they can be closed up into a small spherical ball. Just as when a Bakugan pops open when rolled onto a metal gate card, a Zooble springs to life and pops open when placed on its happitat (or any metal surface really). They can also be compared to the Littlest Pet Shop toy brand in terms of size and price point. With all that's already been released plus all that will be coming out steadily, there will soon be hundreds to collect. They bet you can't buy just one!

Zoobles Single Packs

Zoobles #039 Freckles the CatEach Zoobles Single pack comes with 1 Zooble and 1 Happitat. They pop up when placed on top and can 'sleep' on the inside. There are all sorts of varieties of the happitats, just like the Zoobles themselves. Each batch/assortment of single packs includes 6 different. Thus, if Target, Wal-Mart, etc brings out a box of them to stock the shelves, there would be 6 different in the box...all of which are shown on the back of the packaging.

Zoobles Twobles Two Packs

Zoobles Twobles 2-pack of Fidel (#023) & Chipper (#024)Each Zoobles Twobles 2-pack comes with 2 Zooble and 1 Happitat which has 2 spots in which they can pop open. It's basically the same as the happitats that come int he one packs with a small/flat extension for the 2nd Zooble as you can see in the photo. Each batch/assortment of 2-packs includes 4 different packs (8 different Zoobles in total since there are 2 per pack). Thus, if Target, Wal-Mart, etc brings out a box of them to stock the shelves, there would be 4 different packages in the box...all of which are shown on the back of the packaging.

Special Zoobles Lines

Special Edition Zoobles Mosely the Seal #110Aside from the 1-packs the Twobles 2-packs there are also some specialty lines of Zoobles. Within the initial release they released 6 different special edition Zoobles which were either Shiny or Fuzzy. Much more recently, they released 3 packages that each contain 1 much larger Zoobles mama along with a much smaller than normal Baby Zoobles. They also released 3 light-up Zoobles as well as 3 Zoobles that have long hair. With these newer releases, it seems most stores (Targets and Wal-Marts) namely have put the original 6 special edition Zoobles on clearance to make room. I haven't seen/heard anything official, but this gives me the impression that those original 6 special edition Zoobles will stop being made, if they haven't been already, and essentially be 'retired.' Thus, over the coming months, their secondary market values may see a steady rise.

Zoobles Accessories

Zoobles Razoo's Treehouse Play SetIf you have a child that has to have it all, they of course also have various accessories that go with them which, in general, have a much higher price tag than the Zoobles themselves. For the most part, the accessories range in price from about $15-40 and most of them come with 1 or 2 Zoobles each which you can only get with that accessory. So, if you're trying to get them all, you're going to have to get all the accessories or try to find someone online selling just the Zooble separate from the accessory.

I'm working on a lens which will go over all the accessories in detail. I'll link this module to it once it's ready so keep an eye out for that!

Zoobles vs Littlest Pet Shop (LPS)

Littlest Pet Shop has been out in one form or another for 15 years or so now I believe (I'm 25 now and when I was growing up I had some various littlest pet shop stuff) while Zoobles is the new toy in town.

Are you more likely to purchase Zoobles or Littlest Pet Shop toys?
