Pokemon Metal tags

Hi

Does anyone know much about these?
My little boy has been talking about them for the last few days. Is it the latest craze? Or one on its way out?

Thanks

    hi my son got some on a magazine last week first time i have seen them. sorry cannot remember the name, may be worth looking in the kids mag section.
  • My boys have got absolutely loads, my dad brought them home a huge box full....this has started the ball rolling for their obsession!!!!

    Since then I have spotted some on a kids mag and then there was a token in last weeks NOTW to collect some free from Coop. Other than that not sure where they are from.

    Hi there, I work for a newsagents, and we have been selling them for about a month now, not really big sellers though.

    My son is obsessed with Pokemon but aren't the cards expensive? He gained his collectors badge at cubs last night by showing and talking about his collection. Any Pokemon freebie or discounted stuff would be fantastic.
    One hundred years from now it won't matter what kind of car I drove, what kind of house I lived in, how much money I had in the bank, nor what my clothes looked like but the world may be a little better because, I was important in the life of a child.

    Did a search on the internet to find out about these: and the search came to this thread. lol.

    If you are still interested, they are available for £1 at Gamestation.

    Don't know if this is a good or bad price? lol.
  • These were a real hit with my boys and it spread through the school with them being traded etc. But they have showed no interest in them since the school banned them. Shame really as it was fun for them but has saved us a lot of money and I guess it must have been distracting them at school.

    They cost £1 for a pack of 2 tags and a chain. Not bad really as a treat.

    Newsagents is the best place - they sell them next to trading cards and stickers....pokemon tag craze came and went very quickly at our school. Shoot Out Football cards are the big craze for us at the moment, although seemed to be more crazy last year.
