It goes without saying that MoPods come in handy if you're in a noisy bar or you like to crank up the music in your car, but they also make great desktop/work companions - especially if your phone is in silent mode. Having said that, we can't be held responsible for the consequences of wearing a flashing, spinning penguin in a board meeting.
More than anything, MoPods are impossibly cute companions that are also extremely practical - and you can't say that about your average collectable thingamabob.
At under ten bucks each, these dome-dwelling critters are sure to fly off the shelves in record time. In fact, we feel a craze coming on. So get ordering or you'll end up miserable and MoPod-less. They're for you-hoo!

"A handy companion when your phone is in silent mode, though we won't be responsible for the consequences of wearing a flashing, spinning penguin in a meeting."
The Guardian |
"...you can silence embarrassing ringtones in favour of a cute character..."

Bought this for my Mum so she can see her phone is ringing in the noisy amusement arcades. Works out a treat and ended up ordering 4 more for her friends!

Bought this as a gift for my partner.... who is appalling at replying to text messages.... No excuse now! He has the mopod on his desk away from his phone. It's very reliable when there's a text or call and starts going crazy moments before the text arrives. It always grabs my attention!

I love mopods, they're flashy things that make your phone look dudey, and they alert you for calls, double whammy!

I ordered 2 of these, a Monster for myself and a Penguin for my friend. These things are truly amazing they make the perfect gift for someone of any age, the delivery time was good too as it only took 2 days.

Waaaaaaaaaaahhh! My Auntie bought me one for Christmas and I broke it!! I think I knocked it round too much at school... But if I shake it, it still flashes lol. I love mobile dangly things!! I'm a sucker for the machines in supermarkets too....

My friend has got the penguin one, and I saw it a couple of days ago. I want one now! It's so cool.
Bethan, Nottingham - Mar '07 |
I bought myself a monkey and received it today. Both me and Mum love it and I will be buying one for her and my boyfriend too! Delivery was incredibly quick and the sweets were a nice surprise.

Have bought Mopod Monkeys as Christmas presents, the cutest things ever & efficient to boot !
Catherine Harris, Wales - Dec '07 |
So glad I got one of these. It's ace. I am a bit gutted that, after using it for a few months, my little monkey guy has fallen off his stick and I can't figure out how to get him back on it, but that's probably due more to me chucking my phone in my bag and it getting batted about than any manufacturing thing. Regardless of that, it's an ace little piece of kit and definitely gets your attention. Being a sucker for dangly things all I need to do now is find the Spinning Hat Lucky Charmers on here too -- they are ACE *hint hint*!! ;).
Hannah, Lincolnshire - Nov '07 |
These are great! I got a monster-not on firebox though(sorry) and I think it is excellent! By the way I will need more batteries soon so can you sell them as an accessories? Thanks!
Firebox says: Shame on you Michael, we hope you are very sorry for your betrayal(!) Sure thing, if you search for 'batteries' in the top left search box, voila!

 | Penguin Pile-Up
P-place all your p-penguins on this wiggling iceberg and you're a winner. Sounds simple, but balancing your birds requires steady
hands and careful planning as the slippery iceberg becomes increasingly overcrowded. P-perfect for p-parties.

Looking for a glacial groovemeister? As well as amplifying your tunes via its built-in speaker, this interactive music-loving penguin flaps, waddles, squawks, flashes and even changes mood according to the music it hears. No fish-throwing required.
