I’m with you. It’s hard to consider something that costs over $100 as a “toy”.

They’re ten dollar toy hamsters that move by themselves. I think they make cute noises, too. Yes, I’m aware for about that price, you can get a real hamster. But they don’t make toy cars for real hamsters. (Yes, among MANY other things, zhu zhus have toy cars to ride around in.)

I briefly considered getting myself one. Briefly, dammit.
