Also known as Mr.Squiggles, Wiggles, etc. I saw them in Canada and wanted one but forgot to buy one, but than went to a Walmart in Delaware and got a orange one :D. Should be able to find them in any chain store or any store that says " As Seen on TV" products. Pretty nifty worms that is pretty addicting once you get the hang of it. Super duper hard to get good videos of actual instructional help especially on youtube. Also a few tricks are listed in the packaging itself.

I had a yellow one, but I was never good at it...mostly I wanted it because it was really soft. I'm a sucker for soft things.
 
Yeah, I had some of those when I was a kid, too.
 
I actually saw these in my local aquarium gift shop of all places.

I did not buy any though.
 
They are fun to play with more of a novelty toy and little kids to babies go crazy when they see it in action. Dog also tries to eat it >__<.

Heh, I saw those in Florida last week.

I was almost tempted...
 
ok well, I feel like a sheltered hick, but I have NEVER seen or heard of these until now. And watching the video even freaked me out a bit! lol. how do they move?? That is TOO WEIRD!
