One of Japan’s hottest children’s television programs, Hamtaro made its U.S. debut on the Cartoon Network in June 2002 and the Hamtaro Pop-Up Playset is the perfect complement to the animated series. Based on the lively exploits of Laura, Hamtaro, and the Ham-Ham Gang, this playset folds open to create four of the most exciting settings from the show. Full color throughout, these cardboard punch-outs of the characters make it easy and fun for kids to re-create onscreen adventures or invent new ones.
