Does anyone know why LeapFrog discontinued their line of magnetic learning toys? Totally insane that any vendor would ask these ridiculous prices!

True about pricing. I would just get the Leap Frog Letter Factory Phonics (under $19 the day I'm writing this) and attach magnets to the back if you want the option of sticking it to something.

Go to www.leapfrog.com has place for phone assistance for you. I feel they latch us into their systems purchases when not interchangeable ...purchased many online for my sister who has 7 great grands under age 6 ...Grandma's Library.

I bought both the Explorer and LeapPad for my 3 and 5 year olds for Christmas. I bought a couple of game cartridges as well as app cards. How do you install the apps in both? I was told at TRU that you could only install an app on one device. Good to know that he was wrong.

EXPLORER SMART GLOBEi am confused about the leap frog explorer globe. my daughter had one (loooved it!) and it was damaged in shipping. i tried to order a new one, and i received an email that it was discontinued. i'm confused. it looks slightly different than what was pictured here. & i don't care for the blue background -- too hard to read the countries, etc. photo also had "white" globe, as she had. which is it, that would be coming, if we ordered it from amazon? thanks!

Just bought one from Target for $18. They had plenty in stock yesterday. They are in the crayola section near the office supplies. Didn't see them near the toys. Good luck!

If you haven't already bought a leappad then don't do it. They are very overpriced. Each game cartridge cost about $24the pad about $99 You are far better off getting a small ipad games are free, 99 cents or about $3 much less costlet in the long run plus it can grow with your child's abilities and its wireless.

Thanks once again. I ordered her LeapPad today. Got a great bundle deal from LeapFrog plus free shipping. Her school just got one this week also, so we will be able to work together.

Here's a great site that list the differences in a few of the learning systems:http://hubpages.com/hub/VTech-MobiGo-vs-Leapfrog-Leapster-Explorer-vs-Fisher-Price-iXL

Hi H. Sexton-Which leapster do you have? It looks like each new game is $20+ for the Leapster 2. Thanks.

well i don't think its on apple, all I see is its for Microsoft. But you should see if Leapfrog has anything specific for apple.

people buy them up in store and sell them to make a profit which is why we don't have them yet. There is an abundance for sale all over the internet, just not for the actual price. It was already a little more than the others in the animator collections so I decided we will wait until the fuss dies down to get ours. No way will I pay 3x the price. The lady I spoke to at the disney store said you have to get there fast after a shipment or else they are gone. :(

I just spoke with Fisher-Price customer service and they said 'Do not remove strips" as it will cause product failure. They will update their website to show only the newer toy as currently it showing both the new and old model which I stated was generating a lot of customer confusion.

LOL thanks so much to whomever posted this, I was about to waste another pile of money on another toy that's double the price here than other stores----THANK YOU and from now on I will check Walmart-Toys R Us, etc first. This place is crazy lately with these 3rd party sellers.

Everything we've gotten has been from VTech. They said you should be able to download others, but when we tried, it didn't work. The VTech ebooks, games, and music apps have all been good, but the number of items currently the "rage" with children are limited. While our child has played some of them a few times and we use it for parts of home schooling, they haven't been something that he plays repeatedly as he has others on my husband's tablet.

No they aren't. Only the magnetic ones for the fridge are( LeapFrog Fridge Phonics Magnetic Alphabet Set - Styles May Vary ). However, the magnet ones can fit into this one also. My son has the both as we bought one then he got one as gift. I prefer this one as it has the little carrying case and is easy for storage.
