Bubblewrap Keychain

Once you pop...

When it comes to excruciatingly compelling guilty pleasures, popping bubblewrap is up there with watching replays of Tom Cruise on Oprah while listening to Paris Hilton's single.*.

Indeed, this squishy air-filled plastic is so incredibly unputdownable our good friends in the Far East have created a tiny electronic gizmo that simulates the look, feel and sound of popping bubblewrap. Aargh!

Bubblewrap Keychain

Colors may vary

Developed in conjunction with Japan's biggest bubblewrap manufacturer, the Bubblewrap Keychain features eight rubbery 'bubble' buttons that activate a realistic popping sound when pressed. But here's the really good part: every 100th pop is not a pop but a random sound: a boing, a bark, a rude noise, a yell, whatever. Of course this makes the whole thing hideously addictive, as you'll be frantically popping buttons in order to hear the next crazy sound. Help!

Puchi Puchi - Japanese for "pop pop!"


Bubblewrap Keychain
Put the Bubblewrap Keychain on your keyring or dangle it from your mobile phone and you'll soon become totally obsessed. Here at Firebox we're hopelessly hooked. We even tried finding a Bubblewrap Keychain rehab center but the accompanying numbthumb-itis caused by this devilish device meant we couldn't dial the helpline.

Bubblewrap Keychain

Real bubblewrap - obsolete

Yes, you could travel to work carrying a big roll of genuine bubblewrap, but you might look a bit silly, nay unhinged, fiddling with it on the F to Brooklyn. However, equipped with a Bubblewrap Keychain you can keep popping to your heart's content and fellow commuters will be none the wiser (until they hear a cat meowing or someone blowing a raspberry in your pocket).

Try me! - click to pop
(Flash required)


This really is one of the most addictively gratifying, strangely cathartic gadgets we've ever had the pleasure to play with, and we've played with loads. So get ordering and let the madness begin. Pop...pop...pop...pop, pop...pop...Aargh!!!!!

visitor avatar This little gadget may have actually saved me from a nervous breakdown during the Christmas shopping period! Would highly recommend to combat stress. Only problem is, it's super addictive and you may end up becoming a 'bubblewrapaholic'!!! As always, wonderful service from the Firebox team and delivered in record time.

visitor avatar This thing is amazing, get ready for many a wasted hour. Oh yeah and I thought the whole packet of sweets thing was some kind of insider joke... oh no, there is actually sweets... CLASS.

visitor avatar The second best thing since sliced bread.
Adam, Worcester - Apr '08
visitor avatar You just can't put this down, well, you can but not for long. Try playing Guess When The Random Noise Sounds, for cash, while drunk. Nice.
Terry Haughin, Barrow In Furness - Jul '08
visitor avatar Good lord I just watched James Hewitt and Rebecca Loos sing "The Way You Make Me Feel". That's very disturbing. I think I need one of these to get over the stress now!
Jonathon, Newton Aycliffe - Apr '08
Firebox says: Haha! Fabulous! I think you will need more than this to get over it... but definitely a good start!

visitor avatar Utterly addictive, quite possibly the most brilliant thing i've ever bought...ever!
Josh Allton-Jones, Norwich - Apr '08
visitor avatar Bit disappointed in all honesty, it doesn't really feel that much like bubblewrap at all. It is also designed to make odd noises occasionally so if you used it to "de-stress" in a stressful environment - for example on a train - eventually it will make a horse or doorbell noise, and then you'd get some odd looks (but then again you might get some odd looks anyway). I might try taking the batteries out and trying it!
