“Funny Bubbles” pendant is a device with 7 buttons. It looks like a bubble wrap and replicate the feel of popping bubble wrap.
Since its release last fall, the Mugen Puchi Puchi electronic bubble wrap toy from Bandai became so popular in Japan that the company has decided to make an update. The second-generation toy version has the same design and “functionality” of its predecessor but adds a little something to attract new consumers ->>> anime characters.
Wrapped in packaging sporting wide-eyed girls dressed in anime archetype attire, Moe Puchi Puchi still aims to satisfy the baffling human obsession with popping bubble wrap. But in addition to the standard clicking that accompanies a “pop,” the speaker on the back of the toy lets out the whispering Japanese voices of the characters.
As the only toy designed to replicate the feel of popping bubble wrap, the Puchi Puchi is obviously in a class by itself. It’s unique and fun (for a minute), to be sure, but it doesn’t really feel or sound like bubble wrap. The buttons are realistically squishy and soft, but they’re just too firm. You really have to push the bubble to get it to “pop,” which is too much work for too little reward 🙂
