Nostalgia Critic:
How about Popples? That was a clever idea. It was a series of sports balls that could be turned into cuddly creatures. This raises a few questions, though. Like, why were they playing with a furry pillow-like ball to begin with? [looks offscreen] Hey! You got our basketball? [pretends to hold a basketball] Oh, wow! That's a hairy f***er! It doesn't bounce in the slightest! This'll do us well! [continues] And then, of course, when they go after the ball... well, sh*t, he's got a supernatural creature that hasn't been discovered by science yet, but where's that darn ball? Also, I felt bad playing with these because I always felt like I was giving the Popples a migraine. I mean, you're kicking them around, throwing them. Doesn't that hurt? [the balls become the Popples] The Popples wouldn't come out like this. They'd look more like this. [the Popples are seen beaten up and covered in bandages and slings] But oh well, you can't fault it on still being a clever product.
