The small Guppie really interests me! I have the original Zilla and it really doesn't appeal to me..

The actual size of the tool appears to be ok, but the pliers seem really limited in their function because of their size.  :-\
I'm back!!

Anybody got one of these yet? I see they are available all over the place, including eBay. Street price seems to be in the $10 range.

(this is a just a cut and paste of what I said on bladeforums)

Just some .02 about the tool, has some nice upgrades the guppie and zilla didn't have (like bits with spring loaded bearings to hold them tight), although there are three drawbacks to the tool (doesn't every tool have a flaw?) The only way to carry this tool is by the caribineer or loose in your pocket, CRKT shows it attached to both the Jr. and the 'Lil but both options are not realistic, it hangs so low in your pocket it can just about ride horizontal. The business end of the tool is only held in by friction, the driver may also have a spring loaded bearing but it does not snap or engage into anything, carrying via just the carabineer makes me nervous(losing the driver end) and it swings alot. When the driver head it put in the hex end for more torque or in the zilla jr. it will stay there but has alot of wiggle room, more than I would like. Overall it's a great lil' tool and well thought out, just has some things I would have tweaked to make it more tighter with less ummm wiggle

I just bought one and for the $$$, I think it's great! I'm going to buy a couple more of them.

Sure Joe! I was able to handle one at the SHOT show, but just briefly. :)
