"Cute Cat" Flash Drive Is Too Cute

Budget Gadgets sent this flash drive to review. This imitation Hamtaro flash drive is the cutest way to store data that I’ve ever seen. It’s face lights up when you plug it in to your computer, and depending on the model you choose, it stores 1, 2, 4, or 8 gigabytes of data. It also happens to be very well priced for a novelty flash drive. Prices start at $7.99 (shipping is free!) and the more storage you choose, the higher the price goes.

I wouldn’t know what Hamtaro was, except that a few years ago, my wife and I bought a Ham-Ham piggy bank just because it was so irresistibly cute. You’ll find a picture of our piggy bank next to our flash drive below.

I kind of expected this flash drive to be the kind where you pull the head off to plug it in, but instead, the USB plug is attached to the bottom of the drive with wires (like a tail!), and it tucks in to the back of the little hamster where it snaps in to place. This one piece design keeps you from losing part of your flash drive.

Hamster Has Lego Elevator- Hilarity Ensues

Now, you’d think that Dopey was a cruel name to give a pet, but just wait until you see the antics before you judge. This little furball is like all three stooges rolled combined!

I’d really like to see how the Lego elevator is controlled. If I had to guess, I’d say that there’s a button on the floor that activates the elevator whenever little Dopey steps inside.

My analysis of this situation? Lego elevator = awesome. Dopey the hamster = well named. metal roofing and plastic elevators = priceless.

Maybe, just maybe- the elevator should be a hair closer to the rat’s nest. But then this video wouldn’t be nearly as funny.
