Beetle Tamagotchi Keychain

If you spent the late nineties keeping a plastic egg alive, this keychain will take you straight back, except the pet is now a rhinoceros beetle. It is made from double-sided acrylic and epoxy resin, so it looks finished from either side as it swings from a bag or a set of keys.

At 2.5 inches without the clasp, it is a sensible size for a key ring. The edges are smooth and rounded, which you notice in a pocket, and the coloured metal clasp gives it a bit of contrast against the resin. It is a neat stocking stuffer for a millennial who still remembers the beeping, or for a kid who is already into bugs.

It is only a charm, with no screen and nothing to feed, so the nostalgia is something you bring with you. Shipping comes from the United Kingdom, so order early if a particular date is firm.
