Title: [ID: MicroPets by Tomy] Handheld "walking" Animal- Please help!-*Added Doodle*
Post by: Ophillia on Tuesday 12 November 2013, 10:58 pm

I have been scouring the (slow moving) internet for days trying to id this old toy of mine.

It was a cute little handheld animal (fit in your palm).

 If you clicked a button on the side it "came to life" and it hummed or made a cute sound to tell you it was waking (mine wiggled its ear too I think?) and would shuffle across the table with little feet that rested on the sides of its body. The one I owned was a purple and white zebra (may have also been a horse but I remember it was striped.) The toy line had other animals and even babies at one point I believe.

I thought they were by hasbro but I couldn't find them anywhere. I was sorting through old toys when I recalled it and I would really love to purchase a new one for my collections.

Anyone know what it is called?

Edit- here is a doodle to give folks a better idea of what I mean. Sorry I can't draw for beans.

MicroPets were produced by Tomy in 2002.
