I have fallen in love with the original line of Zhu Zhu Pets. Now Cepia, LLC has introduced a new line of Zhu Zhu, Kung Zhu. These new "battle" hamsters are geared for boys aged 4-10.
Kung Zhu Hamsters have 4 Modes, Talk Mode, Explore Mode, Sleep Mode, and Power Up Battle Mode. The Talk, Explore, and Sleep modes are the same as the original Zhu Zhu Pets. The Power Up Battle Mode is new! In the Power Up Battle Mode, the Zhu Zhu will change both its sound and behavior when it reads one of the codes that come with the armor and the battle arena. Kung Zhu's battle for about three and a half minutes then will go to sleep to save the battery.
Kung Zhu's have the same playfulness as the original Zhu's, but different in that you get to "Train, Transform, and Battle" your Zhu for combat in the battle arena. Your Kung Zhu will train as it goes through the training ground. Once it get through that, you can put on the battle gear to transform your Pet. Finally, you send your Zhu Zhu into battle, where only the strongest will survive! The first set of hamsters are the "good" hamsters. They include the Ninja Hamsters, the Delta Forces, the Rangers, and the Dragon Tribe. The "bad" hamsters are called the Bad Skull Tribe.
Instead of clothes for these hamsters, these battlers have battle gear to wear. This is sold separately from the Kung Zhu Pet. You can also purchase the Battle Arena, Training Arenas, and the Special Forces and many other accessories to build you own, unique play set.
Like the original Zhu Zhu Pets, the Kung Zhu's are innate to imaginative play. Kids will spend hours arranging and rearranging the play sets to create new battle scenarios.
Check out Kung Zhu online too at http://kungzhu.com/ . You will find Hamster Bios, Fun and Games, News and Events, Info and Instructions, and much more! Kung Zhu Zhu Pets sell for about $9.99 each and accessories like battle armor, retail for about $7.99. Additional play sets will retail from $9.99 to $29.99.
Here are the Bios I found online:
