Color: Mermaid (Updated Logo)
Bought as a gift for my 6 year old niece. She loved it! The mermaid design is perfect for her and her mom said she didn’t stop playing with it once she opened it. So fun and nostalgic for 90’s kids. They look exactly like they did when they first came out! Can’t wait to buy one for my kid when she’s older.

Color: Lightning
The Tamagotchi original lightning is a modern iteration of the classic virtual pet toy, designed to be easier to care for than its predecessor. This makes it more accessible to a younger audience, with a recommended age of 7 and up. However, users should exercise caution with the snacks provided, as they have the potential to harm the creature, adding an element of responsibility and strategy to the gameplay compared to the original. The toy successfully taps into nostalgia for millennials who grew up with the original Tamagotchi, while also offering a fresh and engaging experience for younger children. Additionally, it’s slightly lighter in weight than the original units of the 90s. Overall, it combines the charm of the past with contemporary features, making it a versatile and appealing choice for a wide range of users.

Color: Angel Dress
I really like this cute pink glitter shell. I like the pink transparent look with the gold glitter. It fits right in my tamagotchi case. I finally decided to get my hands on the angel version that I never got to try while growing up. I’ve only played the original and connection versions. The angel version has this pretty cool tap feature to scare away battchi. It’s fun to play with. Not too demanding which is good for me as a busy mom.

Once it got delivered i opened it quickly because i wanted to play with it so bad 😂 it’s so cute this is my favorite tamagotchi gen 1 shell so far, i love the yellow cream color ! ☕️🍩🍰💗 Update: I have noticed that recently tamagotchi gen 1 and gen 2 are too loud and they make a screeching sound which I do not like because I have to put the Tamagotchi on mute so that’s why i removed a star

Super nostalgic and the easiest tamagotchi to take care of by far - you just feed it, clean its poop, and can play with it so it doesn't get fat and evolve into something ugly! You cant buy anything or marry but its still cute!

Color: Fresh Strawberry
Pros: Nostalgic; cute to add to a keychain or bag. Cons: Expensive for what you’re getting. Screen is super dark and the brightness can’t be adjusted. Buttons too small for adult fingertips. I have average size fingertips for a woman and it’s challenging to press the buttons. Too much work to keep it alive. No power off button to take a break. Spent $20 to be annoyed lol
