Tell me about zipzaps or microsizers

[Tiggeroo]

Has anyone bought these mini rc cars for their kids. Has anybody played with them yet? I have a bunch of nephews and two sons and am thinking of getting some of these. Originally they were planned for the little guys, but then I went to the web site. Now I am thinking more for the older guys. What are the ages and where besides radio shack can I find them. Do you think the teen boys will like them?? ?What about the teen boys' dads.

This seems like a hot item to get this year...
I don't know much about them but seen that they were hard to get...There were some adults on here that i seen mentioning them and that they liked them...

they (ZipZaps) are only available at Radio Shack and because of the dock worker strike on the West Coast, the supplies are really really limited

Just an FYI - I saw quite a few listed on Ebay.

One seller in particular had about 20!

The microsizers are on toysrus.com and kbtoys.com for around $30. Radio Shacks version {zipzaps} are only $19.99 but are going for over $40 on ebay! I called my local radio shack and was put on a list. They asked for the models/colors that I was interested in and said they would call me when they ship. The sales person said they think the supplier is holding these until closer to Christmas due to the fact that they are being grabbed up by people wanting to resale on ebay. He said that it sounds like they are going to ship to the stores the ones that they have actual customer requests for.
