yeah, as soon as i heard they had them at wallmart I ran over to the one nearest to here. They only had one, and it didn't have the box on it either. I had to convince the manager that i needed it no matter what, and i finally got her to sell it to me for $10. Only now did i realize that i paid too much... Oh well.
And also, apparently the wallmart has deleted "orbit balls" from their inventory, so im guessing they aren't getting any more. i hope thats false.

Blips website says they sell at Target. Has anybody tried their? I bought out 2 WalMarts and got a total of 5. I have all 3 colors. From the way it is sounding I guess I better find a hiding spot until we are ready to use them.. E1 says they are breaking. :ahh:

I went to 2 Walmarts, a Target and a Sports Authority today. Walmart was the only place that had them. The guy at Target searched his inventory gun for about 20 minutes searching online & in-store inventory and couldn't find anything resembling an orbit ball.

In some stores, the packaging might actually be torn, so it might be harder to find them.

Actually, if I remember correctly, the place where they are manufactured is on Minnetonka Blvd in Minnetonka, MN.

Mine says "Made in China" right under "Minnetonka, MN" :rolleyes:

I just called Bliptoys.com. Walmart is currently the only store that sells the Orbit balls.

Blip does not sell retail or directly to customers. The woman that I talked to did say to check with FIRST in about 24 hours they may be announcing more information on how we may purchase more Orbit balls. She would not provide any more details than that, so stay tuned.

Does anyone out there have the UPC barcode number for the ball?

Thanks!

It's shown in the first post of this thread. If you're having trouble reading it because you didn't view the picture at full size, the UPC-A code for the Wild Time Orbit Ball is (6)58382-82040(4).
