It's a shame, too, because you can really have a lot of fun with the idea of a giant hamster. Did they play up on the Godzilla-style battle between Evan and Cuddles? They could have easily gone for a humorous route and made it a comic highlight! But, knowing Stine, he probably tried to make it dramatic, thus uninentionally funny...or stupid. Well, at least Cuddles has become one of the Goosebumps mascots. JANUARY 19, 2008 8:28 PM

At least How I Learned To Fly has that great scene where the two kids try to show off their flying skills in front of their classmates and only end up horrifying them into a shocked stupor. It's funny that the worst books inspired the mascots. I guess because the best books in the series don't involve ""monsters""-- I mean, there was probably no market for a stuffed Fly Away Byrd.
