Pop It Gotchi

Also known as Fidgetogotchis

https://www.cutoutandkeep.net/projects/pop-it-gotchi • Posted by Kin Dragon

I had been recommended to get a fidget toy or something but I never found one that was to my liking, I had also been itching to make a pop it that looks like a Tamogotchi, (partly inspired by 90's nostalgia, Pixar's "Turning Red") but I also found out my sister struggled with some ADHD things too, which I had struggled with all my life. So I made the first one (teal and copper one) for her to see if it was possible with what I have. I put pictures of our late pets on it, (our dogs Brook and Meadow, and Chester the cat) She loved it as much as I loved seeing that it was fully functional and finding it entertaining. So I made one of my own, mine is the Purple and green one (both sides are Dragon themed) Both "pop-it-gotchis" are double sided. I may try to make more in the future. The best part is that I added a ball chain to each of them so we could "clip" them to our bags, belt, lanyard, esc. So we can keep them with us.
