Have you seen the video? This video is easier to see, the house is the 2 circular centre bits, they have the wheel running off which comes with the pink tube, and the slide runs off with the blue tube those tubes come with the accessory not the house. The orange bit is the car garage, can you see how that doesnt really extend the house much. The other bit they have on there is the surfboard which comes with the ball sleepdome.

One thing I will say is that kids will move them when they are stuck but if you leave them to work themselves out they do turn themselves most of the time.

I am no expert but I did check out loads of reviews and videos to see what the fuss was abut before getting sucked in. :rotfl:

Oh and forgot to add inside the tubes, and floor there are little notches which alert the hamster to its whereabouts so it makes the noises according to what its doing, they make teeth brushing and toilet brushing sounds when in the bathroom bit (this is a sticker on the floor of house) and the whizzing and wooing noises are set off the same way. My friend has the set thats how I've seen this lol

thanks for this, thats great - feel a lot better about it now, i thought id just paid £30 odd for a few funny tubes!

Thats ok, just to add if you dont have all the accessories there are stoppers that block the unused exits from the house so the hamster wont escape. I think tonight I might secretly set up my dd's set as I'm getting more excited the more I keep talking about them :rotfl:

There are 4 different videos here showing the pets in action - 3 adverts + 1 real life user having the hamster scurry across their ?kitchen? floor.

Have now edited the title and details of 1st post in this thread as it seems these are getting more popular and they are not in stock on character as they were at time of me posting thread.

Have also decided on these for my 6 year old daughter. Got house and hamster no problems from Argos and also a skateboard from Sainsburys at the weekend. Called into Sainsburys today (White Rose, Leeds) and they had 2 hamsters on the shelf so thought great. Daughter was with me and wanted one (doesn't know about others for Xmas) so of course I picked one up and took it to till. Found out then that Sainsburys have put the price up to £14.99 for hamster! Refused to buy it at that price as they were only £9.99 on Saturday when I bought the skateboard. Asked if price had increased because of the half price toy sale which starts tomorrow and was greated with a smile from assistant. Absolutely furious with them. Anyway went to Argos next door which had loads of stock and got daughter one at £9.99. Beware Sainsburys half price sale not all it seems!!

The hamsters in Sainsburys have always been £14.99 they havent increased the price, I bought one 4 weeks ago and returned it when I found out they are over priced and even told the cashier I was returning it as they were £5 cheaper everywhere else not that she was the slightest bit interested, the balls were £2.00 more too at £11.99 :rolleyes:
