I should've seen this coming. After robotic pet dogs and cats, Sega Toys now comes out with a robo-hamster. What's next for the folks over at Sega Toys; robo-plants? Oh wait, they've already done that. Named the "Dream Hamster," the product would be released on August 8, 2008 for approximately $12 per furry bot. Just press the switch on its abdomen and hold the Dream Hamster on your hand for it to start moving.

There are three different types available for purchase: the Golden hamster, Roborovski hamster, and the Jangarian hamster which is especially famous in Japan. Sega Toys is targeting women 20 to 40 years of age and expects to sell 100,000 Dream Hamster units per year. While I'm squirming with glee over their cuteness, I can't help but feel a bit sad for the robo-hamsters' real-life counterparts.
