If you are at all familiar with my work, you might have figured this would eventually venture into Tamagotchi territory.

This time, I’m talking about the regular old Tamagotchi made new again. Bandai re-releases its classic Tamagotchi nearly every year around this time with a batch of new colorways to collect. This latest round includes pink glitter and ‘90s geometric shapes. There are over 30 styles currently. They each cost between $15 and $20 and are pretty easy to find at most big-box retailers.
