Fingerlings (toy)

The toy is a robotic creature that wraps around a finger and reacts to touch and sound with actions like blinking and blowing kisses.

In the 2017 Christmas season Fingerlings were a hit, and so called "Grinch bots", named after a fictional Dr Seuss character who "stole Christmas",[2] bought out Fingerlings on online retail sites to resell for higher prices.

[2] Fingerlings are capable of over 40 different sounds and reactions, including singing, blinking, burping, and farting.

[1] The original lineup was designed to resemble the pygmy marmoset, an animal that Sydney Wiseman, WowWee's brand manager and niece of the company's owners, has been "obsessed" with since childhood.

WowWee created exclusive products for major retailers—a glitter-covered monkey for Amazon.com, the sloth for Walmart, and a unicorn for Toys "R" Us.
