News For September 17, 2001Believe it or not, the highly anticipated Sea-Monkeys Explor-A-Sub is finally here! Many of you have been waiting patiently for this kit (I know I have), and it should prove to be well worth the wait. A full review is in the works and is coming soon... but that's not all. We'll also have a full review of the new Sea-Monkeys Pirate Gold kit as well (this tank will look great sitting next to the Ghostly Galleon kit). More on these soon!
News For May 15th, 2001Dr. Sea Monkey made a special television appearance on Animal Planet! If you had a chance to catch the show "Pet Project", then you were lucky enough to see the one and only Sea-Monkey Lady herself (Susan Barclay) from the Sea Monkey Worship Page website. Unfortunately, I posted the wrong air time for her appearance (P.M. instead of A.M.), so some of you may have missed it because of me. Bad Marty.. Bad Bad!
The good news is that Susan is working on getting a video stream of the event posted on the Sea Monkey Worship Page for your online viewing pleasure. This is great news to me since I must admit to missing original broadcast myself. Check her site regularly and you'll know when it's up and running. I'll also be sure to post the information here and on the message board when it's ready.
News For April 25th, 2001How about another new Sea-Monkey kit to brighten up your day? Or better yet, how about your evening? With ExploraToy's new MagicQuarium kit, you'll see the light!... and you'll do it without batteries! Once again, I'd like to thank Educational Insights for the sneak peak on this upcoming kit. As soon as we actually get our hands on one, you can be sure we'll have a full review here at Sea-Monkey Mania. Until then, go ahead and read the information below direct from ExploraToy.
"Hoo-Boy!" When you gotta glow,
you gotta GLOW!
Mystery light source illuminates the world of Instant Live Pets for HOURS at a time! One exposure to a lamp bulb or any other light produces dazzling rays that leap from the seafloor. Sea-Monkeys swim and frolic as they glow in total darkness LIKE FIREFLIES! Until now, when exposed to light, non-toxic phosphorescent substances could only glow for a few minutes, then fade away to nothingness. The amazing new MagicQuarium conquers the dark without bulbs, batteries or electricity - now that's MAGIC!
FEATURES
Sounds awesome to me! I'll be sure to post any new information on the Sea-Monkey MagiQuarium or the Sea-Monkey Explor-A-Sub kit (such as shipping date and price) as soon as I get it. Check back soon to our News Page!
News For April 1st, 2001We told you we were going to get some first hand info regarding the Explor-A-Sub, and that's what we've done! I'd like to personally thank the great folks at Educational Insights for providing us the information. As you'll see in the picture below, this is a seriously cool looking kit. It looks to me like this one could rank right up there with the Space Shuttle kit in the eye-catcher department. As soon as we're able to obtain one of these kits, we promise a full comprehensive review... but for now, I'm quite sure you'll enjoy the picture and reading the specifications from the publicity flyer.
