Moshi Madness

If you don't recognise these plastic creatures then consider yourself lucky - Moshi Monsters have blighted our lives for a couple of years now. These figures are called Moshlings and are sold in pairs in foil wrapped packs (£2.99 - Kerching!). My 9 year old daughter is obsessed with them and thinks the creator of Moshi Monsters (Mr Moshi) is a magnanimous chap for creating a Moshi website and constantly developing new Moshlings for you to add to your collection. I tried to point out that if he was that magnanimous he would put the Moshlings in a clear packet so at least you would know what you were buying and not have lots of duplicates. This fell on deaf ears. I guess she is not ready yet to accept the evils of consumerism...
