49-in-1 Virtual Pet (2000s 'Connection' Bootleg)
Feels like: a market stall in 2005 with a tray of egg pets that weren't quite right.
A sealed mid-2000s 49-in-1 virtual pet in its Italian box, one of the bootlegs that rode the Tamagotchi Connection craze. A curiosity, not a Bandai product.

The details
When Tamagotchi Connection took over playgrounds in 2004 and 2005, unofficial '49 in 1' egg pets showed up at markets across Europe. This one is still sealed in its purple Italian box: blue translucent shell, ball chain, and a menu of feeding, discipline, lights and medicine icons printed on the side.
It isn't made or licensed by Bandai. We're listing it as a period knock-off for collectors of virtual-pet oddities, not as a Tamagotchi.
Unopened old stock. The original button-cell battery is likely dead and may need replacing. Small parts.
