I saw them in the window of a gift shop here where the Ben-Yehuda pedestrian mall meets Jaffa Street.
Since the advent of the tram last year, most of Jaffa St. has also become a pedestrian mall.
Just don't forget and stroll onto the tracks because the tram will honk at you.

A Muppet mezuzah??? No way!
To answer your question, Dina: as my second job is teaching, I get the Christmas, Easter and summer holidays off. Back to the good old 39 hours week, yeah!
Well, I have one and that's enough. It is not so glaring in color as these.
It is a nice thing.. I would just notice it more often and remember what words I put in it -of course I do:-)
They look really colourful. A lovely present for the Christmas stocking.
I always found a mezuzah near the door of my hotel rooms in Israel!
Great post!! Boom & Gary of the Vermilon River, Canada.
Never THOUGHT about that! When you are used to something in one form.....would using one of these new ones be "cheating" in that putting a MEZ on your door is an act of courage for some assimilated folks.
I have an old style one, tilted the wrong way! But it does it's job of reminding me to be grateful for going out and coming home.
Wishing YOU
an Aloha-filled week, from Waikiki

That must be the perfect gift for the person who has everything :-)
They do look colorful, but I do not have one. It would make a cute present. Have a great day!
I knew about the item, but I'm not sure that I've heard what it is called. I treasure being enlightened about your faith. Indeed it is the foundation of mine.
What an unusual present - very creative!
I was at a celebration of one of my friends with a new home - the door post and key - so meaningful!
Ha ha . . . I spy the Los Angeles Lakes and Ohio State University among those mezuzahs! they are a long way from home . . .
They do look rather cute. I hope your Chanukah week is going beautifully!
