Have you ever popped bubble wrap? I know I have, and sometimes it’s been a lot more entertaining that the gift that it came wrapped around!
Bandai, a Japanese toy company took that idea and turned it into a line of hot selling keychains named Mugen Putiputi (Japanese for “pop pop”) key chains, which allow people to pop or snap plastic air bubbles endlessly. The Mugen Putiputi received the Trendy Toy award for uniqueness and wide acceptance this week in Tokyo.
