You make sure your Bratz and her e-pet are healthy and happy. For the first time you can truly Be-Bratz in the Bratz world. Bonus real-working mouse and mouse pad included, plus a pet that matches your online e-pet.

The Bratz doll comes with a pet. View larger. View USB connector.

When in the mood to spruce up their virtual space, a shopping center offers clothing, shoes, pet toys, furniture and home decor. Looking for a personal makeover instead? The salon lets them freshen up a character's current look or get a completely new one. There's even a food court for buying snacks and a newsstand for reading the latest headlines.

To access this online realm of chic-ness, simply plug in the included USB device and follow the instructions to unlocking your Bratz character. The fun, interactive, and safe online environment allows girls to customize a personal MyPage, name their character, name their e-pet, design their hair, makeup, and clothes, and decorate their MyRoom. After the one time registration, the Be-Bratz world will automatically open every time the USB key is plugged in. Once set up, the almost endless fun begins!

Characters can chat with up to 50 other Bratz friends online, rename their characters and pets, go to the salon, hang out in the food court, personalize their room, and more. Most importantly, Bratz characters can accumulate points that work as virtual money for shopping, of course! Points are collected by playing games, selling apparel and room items back to stores at half their value, or through Be-Bratz.com Points Cards. (The cards can be purchased at retail outlets in values of 1,000, 2,500, and 5,000 points, and are redeemed by entering the card's unique code online at your Be-Bratz.com account.) Points are what allow characters to get makeovers at the salon, new clothes at the boutique, food, pet toys, home decor items, and more. Points belonging to a Be-Bratz character cannot be traded with other Bratz.

This Light Skin Be-Bratz.com character has blond hair, wears a red dress, and comes with electric pink accessories, including her pet cat, mouse pad, and mouse. The USB "key" has pink Swarovski crystals on it and can be worn as a necklace. Additional accessories, such as a mini keyboard with hot pink keys, a bright pink webcam, and a pair of small pink computer speakers are available separately. While Be-Bratz.com dolls allow girls to make their online character as unique as themselves, it is possible to create multiple characters if additional Be-Bratz.com dolls are purchased.

The USB key opens up a world of fun at the online Be-Bratz world.

You can get a virtual makeover online for your Bratz character.
