D’aaawww that’s so adorable, I would get them right now if they weren’t so pricey. Amazon, ThinkGeek, Modcloth, and eBay have them for about $27 – $30 USD, but that’s just the toaster.

The USB hub, aka “the toaster,” doesn’t come with the toasts (the flash drives), those are sold separately. Each flash drive goes for about $25 on Modcloth and Amazon.

Also, the toaster doesn’t come with a power supply. ThinkGeek doesn’t mention this at all in their description, but Modcloth does: “external power supply 5V/2.6 A not included,” so as you can imagine it also is sold separately, unless you have a dual USB cable that will most likely be a type A to USB Mini 5-Pin Type B, just like the ones some of the 2.5″ portable hard drives use to draw power from your computer without the use of an external power supply.

It doesn’t really matter where you get them, you’d looking at spending a little over $130 before shipping. I know it’s a novelty item, but the flash drives are kind of expensive for just 4GB a piece. The price of the toaster doesn’t really surprise me though, I’ve seen worse.
