The hamster I bought yesterday (Nugget) was also in Zhu Zhu packaging, but I think it is because all new Go Go stock has been re-branded as Zhu Zhu. The picture on the reverse of the box included the new 2010 stock. There also seems to be extra packaging inside the box to make it sturdier and prevent the buttons on the back being activated by mistake.

I wonder why the change? PErsonally, I much prefer "go go" to "zhu zhu"

By the way, do you think it poss to order online a hammie tomoro morning and still get it delivered in time?? or is delivery over now?

Argos seem to have them in with 2 day delivery so you should be ok. p.s If anyone can answer my previous post that would be great. Im hoping its just mine and not quite a few of them.

Hi
Has anyone bought a hamster and tried it only to find it doesnt move very quickly (if at all)? I bought these for my niece and nephew and as Im not seeing 2 of them over Xmas I told them they could have their Xmas early so gave them hamsters today. One of them got Chunk and one got Mr Squiggles. Mr Squiggles is zipping around all over the place whilst Chunk says "Go, Go, Go" then doesnt move!! If you push him a bit he finally takes off but then stops again. It doesnt happen every time but just wondered if this is supposed to happen or if its perhaps faulty.....Any chunk problems with anyone else!! Hope you all have a lovely Xmas and thanks in advance.

New batterys , apparantly they only have demo ones in them. I have stocked up on aaa in advance!

Probably dodgy batteries. Other people have had this - the ones the hamsters come with are test batteries (ie crap) so replace them.

Oh fab!! I thought it was a duff one as the other one works fine. Thanks so much. My niece will be pleased. She had tried to persuade herself its just because Chunk is fatter and therefore moves slower!! Cheers all. x
