Wow. I forgot all about these!

Hello to all of you awaiting Zubbles Magic, the World's First
Colored Bubbles! Thank you for your support and patience over
the past few years! We are thrilled to announce, to all of you
before anyone else, that the first bottles for public release
are currently in production and a limited supply will be ready
to ship sometime in the next couple of weeks. As a result, we
are ready to take pre-orders on our website:

http://www.zubbles.com.

We regret that we are only able to take orders for the U.S. and
Canada at this point. To those of you from other countries, we
apologize for the delay, and rest assured that we are working to
make Zubbles available to you very soon.

Thank you again,
Marc

Hah! That's how I'll spend my imaginary lotto winnings (after taxes), I'll buy cases of zubbles!

$15 for two things of bubbles? Yeesh. They seem fun, but unless I manage to win the lottery too I think I'll stick with the clear ones.

These were predicted in a mid-60s Supergirl story in Adventure comics. Kryptonian toddlers were playing with them in the waiting room of a custom robot factory. They were driving this dignified older guy crazy with their "bubble-tubes". He mentioned that you could get cartridges for them that lasted a lifetime, we assume in different colors. Their mom was getting a robot made that looked exactly like her for babysitting purposes. We always thought the idea of having the robot look like the mom was a bad idea.

*squee* I want some! I already bought myself some of the ones that don't pop right away even if you touch them.
