LEGO Star Wars Advent Calendar Building Kit
Geez, and I thought Lindt's chocolate advent calendar was pricey. But I guess no number of dollars is too many dollars when we're talking LEGO, Star Wars, and my present to count down the days to getting even more presents...
Razor Crazy Cart XL
Razor made a Crazy Cart. For kids. Guess who wanted to use all the Crazy Carts. Their parents. Guess what happened when parents used their kids' Crazy Carts. Yep. They busted them. So Razor, ever one to solve problems...

Schrade Axe with Fire Starter
That's some mighty fine firewood you've chopped there, ma'am, but I must axe you a question: how do you plan to light it? A fire starter built into the handle? You bet I'd like to take a look. How kindling of you to axtend...
Director's Clapperboard Digital Alarm Clock
Wednesday morning, take...how many Wednesdays are in a year? How long have I been alive? Let's say Wednesday morning, take 1800. Ahhh, for those in the industry I'll bet the only sound sweeter than someone shouting out...
Lumio Book Lamp
Max Gunawan designed Lumio to represent his appreciation for minimalist design and, as an architect, his motivation to optimize the use of small spaces. I bet he's enjoyed a few illuminating books in his life too. Lumio...

SKEYE Hexa Drone
Well, it isn't a SKEYE Embryo as I predicted when we saw the drone-baby factory's Pico, but I think the 6-propellered SKEYE mutant that is Hexa reflects a similar sort of tinkering with the drone genetic code...
Glow-in-the-Dark Golf Balls
Forget the greens, come first snow me and my friend Cornelius are going to be grabbing some heavy-handed egg nog and driving these glowing globes of golf across the whites. Now I just need to find a footlong tee...
