    My daughter saw one at our local everything store and insisted that she buy it. I was more partial to the Digimon keychains growing up.

    I wish they’d partner with a smartwatch brand like Fitbit or apple since they’re tying to do wrist straps so hard.
    Also I bought a $60 one a few months ago, it died :(

    JFC what a timeline that I could even have that thought.
