    It's the latest and greatest boogerish stuff to play with. Think Play dough with a bad attitude. Thing bling, bling modeling clay. Think mud pies gone mad. wings.gif

    It's really creepy stuff.

    I love how marketers work - Floam was created in 1993 (just past when I was the age to be playing with it) and it kind of disappeared for about ten years or so, but I've noticed that Nickelodeon has been bringing it back - successfully at that. I do agree that it's some pretty creepy stuff though: http://www.buyfloam.com/ (official site with annoying commercial video).

    Wow, I didn't know it had been around that long. It's pretty big in the UK, in fact, my daughters sister sent her the UK version.

    Ha Ha. Resistance is futile.

    Ah, some kind of modelling clay. Maybe I've seen it already here in Japan; the kids use it at school. Rather lightweight stuff when it's dried... or maybe not.
