I’m just blown away... All of our childhood favorites are coming back! This is especially exciting for us 90’s kids. I’ll never forget seeing this fabulous, middle-aged woman, walking out of Target 🎯 with the Dalmatian Giga Pet hanging from her black Coach purse. This was back in ‘98. Love both shells! Really looking forward to the unicorn 🦄 pet. Thanks, Ra! Great review
Thank you Ra, you always have all the virtual pet news. I can't believe that me, as a 30 year old, would see Giga Pets launching something like this again! My mind is blown.
Right?? Same here. I LOVED all these things as a kid and to be able to revisit them with new versions is so neat, especially being able to share them with my kids.
Hi Ra! I was quite sceptical about this pet for awhile due to its outward look somewhat, but my mind is changed! Thanks so much for doing the review on this! This pet is much better than I thought it would be! The animations alone got my heart. I can’t wait to have one of these and then collect the others. Thanks again for the video!
I had the Giga Pet compu kitty and the dog. I remember the dog only beeping instead of barking which made it less desirable for me, but the kitty actually meowed which was cute but the dang thing was sooooo needy and got sick and died very easily. Loved my Rakuraku Dinokun dinosaur much better! And my v1 Tamagotchi.
I remember having this virtual pet when I was little. I wanted a Tamagotchi so bad, but my parents got me this instead. And I always thought of it as a cheap knockoff (and maybe it was?) But it turns out it was an actual legit competitor in the v-pet market. So bad I didn't keep, don't even know what happened to it. But I remember it was clear purple with (I think) white bones on it. They started to peel off and I cleaned them with acetone and totally killed the shine of the shell. Maybe that killed it altogether 😂
The only thing that I’m wondering about, is , when it dies, is there a way to bring it back? My friend has one were you put a pencil into a hole and it revives , does it have that feature? If so I’ll definitely look into getting one
He's so rediculously cute and I love how they didn't go crazy and over complicate the design and functionality. I plan to buy these on Amazon for my kiddos door Christmas and probably one for me :) maybe they'll release more than just the dog in August so there's a little variety! Any idea when in August they will be released?
Ugh.. Got mine in today, great! Cute animations etc.etc. Suddenly it RESETS out of NOWHERE. And it KEEPS on doing this! I'm so sad. Had this imported from the US since they don't sell this in my country. Which made it rather costly for a pet that can't even be played! ):
I can't understand why make a virtual pet exactly like the 90's (i had the same thoughts about Tamagotchi 20th Anniversary). Why not in colour as the Tamagotchi Meets/On? :O

I love how Bob whacked the food bowl away with such gusto. It's like, "FINISHED EATING NOW!" (23:55)

I had the 100 dalmatians one in the 90s, can't wait for this release! 😍😍😍
I'm so excited about these. My first Digital Pet was a Cat gigapet. I wish I could find it but I'm definitely going to be picking these up.
Thanks so much for this review!! Awesome as always :D I just found out that they're selling them here in Australia YAY!!

My childhood! Ahhhhhhh I must buy them. :D Please tell them they'll do the cat version as well. I had the regular dog, dalmation, and cat.

giga pet, digi pet, or tamagotchi?
What/where is the serial code on the giga pet ar? The giga pet itself or the package?
while I am excited, what is the point of being able to order it from anywhere in the world if they only whip to USA?
I have relayed this to them, and they have told me they're working to fix this and will make it available worldwide soon. :)
There bringin bk the Original tamagotchi p1 not the mini
Yes, I know. I have a review on those at my channel too if you wanna have a look.

As usual they put random animals on the preview on the back of the package. Who ever seen Koala really?!
