Mickey Mouse Clubhouse Toys...for your crab

A reader sent me these pictures of the latest addition to the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse merchandising lineup. The Mickey Mouse Clubhouse Hermit Crab Mobile Kit is on shelves for your holiday gift giving needs. I wonder how the meeting went where they decided this was a necessary idea. I don't know what this kit all comes with but one really cool thing it does come with
is this awesome shell with a picture of Mickey on it for your hermit crab to move into. Mickey's image has been used on thousands of items over the years, but there's just something wonderful about slapping a portrait of Mr. Mouse onto an actual living creature!

We bought a hermit crab at the beach this summer. Elias named him "Mr. Crab". When Mr. Crab moved on to the big shell in the sky at the end of his second week with us, we had a simple service for him that involved dumping him into the trash can when Elias wasn't looking. Last week we were killing some time at a Petco and we were looking at the hermit crabs. "He looks like Mr. Crab," Elias said. A few seconds go by and then Elias says, "Hey....Where IS Mr. Crab?"

We quickly moved on to the fish tanks.
