Welcome to Gaia! ::

you may or may not have seen a commercial for this before . . . U.B. Funkeys the "starter kit" is 22 bucks (a bit steep) but it does include 2 figures and each additional figure is 5 bucks (not to bad) . . .

the figures are "keys" to an online game each figure gets different items, games, rewards, etc.

they put a lot of detail into the storyline . . . so kids like my niece could easily get wrapped up in it . . .

there's 50+ different ones so far since the release of series 2 . . . but the website's list apparently hasn't been updated . . .

here's the page that gives a quick explanation of the start up on the right of the page is the explanation of the "world"

here's the list of series 1 "figures"

soon as i come up with some spare cash i'm going to get the startup kit for my niece . . . probly when i get my income tax check . . .


anyhow thought i'd tell everyone in case they were looking for a gift for someone in that age range or were going to be looking soon cause of a birthday or something coming up . . .

just so you know those prices were from walmart . . .

here's the pics of the series 2 (funkiki island) since the website hasn't loaded these pics up yet . . . i do not know which of these are the normal, rare, and very rare ones . . .

for some reason noone i've talked to here has heard of them . . . yet i've been in 2 walmarts and a target they had plenty of starters but the hangers for the singles were empty except for the ones that came with the starters . . . so it's apparently popular . . . yet somehow noone i know has heard of them . . . i want the blue flurry and white stitch . . . i just like it for some reason . . . i'd probly go over to my nieces with it just to see how it all works although before that i'd make sure she had the lotus and twinx (one of which would be with the starter kit) . . . the concept has caught way too much of my attention . . . although it wasn't designed to catch the attention of adults, from reviews i've read it's managed to do just that . . .
