Techstination, your destination for gadgets and gear.   I’m Fred Fishkin.     The Tamagotchi line from Bandai America is continuing to forge new partnerships to expand the virtual pet line up.    This time… with Toy Story Tamagotchi.  Bandai America’s Trish Garrett..

“Because Pixar has their big summer blockbuster, Lightyear, coming out this June, we are introducing not only Woody and Buzz, but actually all of their friends as well.  There are 17 characters total that you get to actually play with.  In this case, you are actually switching toys and getting to play with each toy one at a time.”

Toy Story Tamagotchi is coming in June….but you can get in line to pre-order now.  Don’t be surprised to see lots of parents placing orders…maybe for their kids…maybe not.  The virtual pet line goes back more than twenty five years.
