Here Come the Zibits!

Very rarely do I stray from Beer and/or Bar talk.  When I do, it is for a good topic.  Friends, grab a pint of your favorite beer (if you are over 21) and allow me to introduce you to the Zibits.  These mini-r/c robots are getting ready to take fun to another level.  Each Zibit comes with there own Z-mote and it is through the power of the two AAA Batteries (or the Zar Crystal, depending on which Zibit you ask) that your Zibit comes to life and produces sights and sounds for hours of fun.  One of the fun ways to enjoy the Zibits is by racing them!  Put them on your desk, floor or countertop and watch the mini r/c robots go.

There are a total of 12 Zibits and each miniature robot is listed with their own program traits, specialty and back story.  My favorite Zibit is "Dex."  Dex believes that science can be fun and he is always armed with jokes.  One of the best parts of the Zibits World is reading up and figuring out which Zibit is more like you.

Zibits are currently available at Toys "R" Us stores across the United States and they will be unleashed to more stores in the Fall of 2010.  So come Christmas 2010, you will have a fun gift option for that special someone.  The best part: Zibits are just $9.99 each!

"Gunk" is the name of the Zibit in the picture.  He is described as a robot with all heart and no brain that specializes in destruction.  Cool!
