Where can I buy a toy ball slide (aka "ball run")?

Question

It's a toy where you put balls in the top, hit them with a hammer, and they slide down, usually in a zig zag pattern setting off bells and whistles and come out the bottom. They don't have them at Walmart or Target.

Answer 1

is it red yello and blue with 3 holes on top for balls and the hammer hangs on the side if so its called Pound A Ball and can be purchased at Toys R Us for $24.99

Answer 2

I have never seen a toy like describe, however I have reviewed two similar toys on my blog. One involves marbles, so it would not be appropriate for a very young child. The other one is take off of the classic pounding toy, only the balls run down chutes. Both toys are made of wood.
