For a while Woot! was selling plastic-nosed masked imitation pseudo monkeys that looked more like mishapen teddy bears because manufacturing costs on the real monkeys had gone up. The rather unmuted and negative response to the lesser 'monkey' motivated the return of the real thing, but higher costs passed along in spades.

Well, I do like the originals better. So, I guess I can live with. It.

Amazon is a horrible place to shop. I needed a leak frog. I checked amazon, $50 for one new ( go check).i ended up buying one from ebay for $20 new. Amazon is abviously is a greedy pig and anything associated with it is subject to inflated prices and coorporate greed. It will fail.

I only come to this site still to check out the deals website, which is great (but that is all user-generated too). Its sad that the 2 for Tuesdays are gone and no Big Office Cubicles.

According to Wootsack, the last Batch of Copies was Sep 18, 2012.

Personally, I don't miss them. I bought two. It was exciting to be able to buy them, but once they arrived it was just a box full of stuff to throw away.

If this is the 'Adult" version of the monkey, I'd like to see the difference between it and the "Child" version. I take that back, no I dont.

Really? I tend to find some of the best prices on things through Amazon.
