Koosh Ball - Mondo Edition - New Larger 4" Size (Colors May Vary)

Exactly as described - got a large Koosh brand ball that was full, fat and fun! (Mine was half bright ocean water blue and half lemon yellow - perfect for my son's Easter basket!) I can already tell this is going to be a favorite pool & toss around toy this spring and summer!Edited to add on April 26, 2015: Ordered three more as gifts! Received two that were blue, lemon yellow and hot pink tri-colored and one that was blue, lemon yellow and tropical orange tri-colored. I've been thrilled with the soft feel, the vibrant, bright colors and how they arrive in good-looking condition! One was for a 9 year-old girl and the other for a 7 year-old girl. Both girls were thrilled with their pool-ready toy at the pool party and the other kids were anxious to have a turn. Koosh balls never seem to be at garage sales or Goodwill because they are just fun forever!Edited May 5, 2015: Ordered two more as gifts. Got a half blue, half yellow and a blue/yellow/orange tri-colored one. All have shipped from Games from Dan. Seems that these plus the blue/yellow/hot pink are the only 3 colors there are! But I'm pleased - they always arrive with a nice looking hang tag and are ready for gift-giving.Edited June 2015: These are such a hit at poolside birthday parties that I keep ordering them as gifts! Most recent one was half hot pink, half orange. There is something about a Koosh...people cannot keep their hands off of it! Our local toy stores sell the smaller size Koosh for almost as much as this one costs and the parents want to know where I found the "original" bigger size.Make sure you are ordering from seller GAMES FROM DAN. Every single one I have received from him is a REAL KOOSH brand ball with a hang tag exactly as shown in the example image.

I just got this in the mail. I am so exited but there are a couple of things to point out.It feels smaller than the one I had as a kid. Not as fluffy or full but aside from that the texture the smell and everything else is the same. When I say fluffy or full I mean the little rubbery hairs in it are not as long as they were back in the day. I gave it five start because this is the real deal and as good as it gets. It feels great in my hands just like when I was a kid. The colors are amazing. I included a picture of the Koosh ball in my hand so you can have an idea of the size and a picture next to a 3x3 inch Post-it.I got it because I wanted to have something to tug and pull when I got stressed out while studying. I will update in a couple of weeks once I've had the chance to use it for this purpose.Hope this was helpful ;)

After reading reviews for the regular koosh ball, I chose the mondo because it's the size of the ones I had when I was little. I ordered this for my sister because about 30 years ago, she lost hers on vacation and neither of us have forgotten. It was the perfect birthday gift, she said it smelled like her childhood! Her sons have tried to adopt it as their own, but she won't let them... I might have to order more for Christmas. A little disappointed that I couldn't choose colors, but it's probably because there are a hundred different combinations. I was hoping for at least 2 colors, which is what I got, it was orange and green. As I'm writing this, I've decided to order one for myself... jealous of my sister's :)

This reminds me of my childhood. As many others said, closely resembles the original 90's Koosh. It feels, smells, and throws like an original one. Since I have both the (new) "regular" sized Koosh Balls Multi-Color Gift Set Bundle - 3 Pack and the Mondo Koosh, here are my observations:*The Mondo is noticeably bigger than the 3 inch Koosh and fills your hand more. See pictures for example.*It is much heftier and weighs more than twice as much! The Mondo Koosh I have is 3.3oz. vs. the 1.5oz. regular Koosh.*That said, it is also multiple times more expensive...If you're buying a Koosh for a child and want to introduce them the crazy ball of the 90s, a regular Koosh would probably suffice.If you're buying a Koosh to relive your childhood memories, I would suggest the Mondo Koosh!

To anyone complaining about the size not being what we had in the 80's and 90's you're my disappointment not Hasbro... realize you were a child with smaller hands. All the comments convinced me to buy the mondo and I wish I bought the original, I was replacing my mid 90's Koosh with a "cleaner" less germy one after all these years and here is your size comparison the mondo is huge (green and blue is mondo). I wear a women's size small/xsmall glove if that helps you understand the size. As for your finger loop complaining I've never felt the need to use them but there they are on both obviously deteriorated some on the older version having broken pieces and losing elasticity.

In short: this is a Koosh ball, made by Hasbro. If you know what a Koosh ball is and like the idea of owning one, I would recommend you buy this, because it is a Koosh ball and it will fulfill your Koosh-related needs.Several reviewers have noted they received a Koosh knock-off, the grammatically-challenged "Threadz" ball, instead of a Koosh. I suppose you run the risk of that happening to you, but I ordered a Koosh, and got a Koosh. If you receive a Threadz expecting a Koosh, return the Threadz and get a Koosh instead. Insist upon it!Finally, for the detail-oriented, this is indeed a "classic" Koosh, about 4" wide. It has a variety of colored filaments mixed together, creating a rainbow effect different from the color-segmented ball pictured. It's perfect for toddlers to fling around, as it's harmless as a ball can be.
