Battlestar Galactica Minimates Action Figures
June 5th, 2008

Battlestar Galactica Minimates
The Cylons were created by man. They evolved. They rebelled. There are many copies. And they have a plan! These Battlestar Galactica Minimates were also created by man, quite nicely. They paid great attention to detail, even on characters like Doc Cottle, and the variants like the pinstripe suit and test tube tray Gaius Baltar. Nice!

Remote Control Zombie Is Still Dangerous
May 16th, 2008

Remote Control Zombie
Just because you control it doesn’t mean it’s not dangerous. If it looks like a zombie, it needs to be shot. Period. I mean this thing could bite your other RC toys and then we have a bunch of zombie gadgets on our hands.

Just use the brain shaped controller and watch it do it’s slow Zombie thing. Only $19.99.

Review: Super Soaker Bottle Shot
May 14th, 2008

Super Soaker Bottle Shot
One of the few perks to being a good looking blog writer, is that sometimes people will send you stuff. Panties, requests for sex, notes from irate husbands, etc. Hasbro sent me this Super Soaker Bottle Shot so I could try it out and let you know what I thought.

The only downside with all water guns is that eventually you have to refill it. The Super Soaker Bottle Shot allows you to screw on a standard plastic bottle instead. In fact it can even accommodate a 2 liter soda bottle allowing you to reuse them as back up liquid ammunition for when you’re in the heat of battle.

I wanted to test this properly so I gathered an accomplice and hit the road. My plan was simple. To see how many wet T-shirts I could outfit women in, in a very short time. My goal was an entire town of women with wet shirts! It was bold but necessary. First, we hit the stores and stocked up on about 200 2-liter bottles of coke. We got some smaller bottles too, just in case.

Then it was go time. We loaded our truckload of 2-liter ammo in a van and we were off. From the drivers seat I cruised around for women, while my back-up gunner had ammo at the ready.

Heath Ledger Joker Dolls Are Selling Like Crazy
May 8th, 2008

Heath Ledger Joker Doll
Geeks love the Batman. And when you combine Batman merchandise with the fact that Heath Ledger just died, a morbid kind of collectible is born and dumbasses think that it will go up in value despite the fact that a chinese factory cranked out 85 billion of them.

The Heath Ledger Joker dolls from the Dark Knight movie have completely sold out, according to Toys R Us and are selling on eBay for $17.00+

I find it amusing that people are going to overpay for them now and in less then a year they won’t be worth crap. You know, unless you hold onto it for like 50 years.

When your kid says, “Tell me of this Batman you speak of.”

Alright, I’m a geek. I want one. But I’ll get it next year for cheap.

Pee & Play: Rocking Horse Toilets
May 5th, 2008

Rocking Horse Toilet
Ah, to be young again. The simple joys of play. Rocking on my rocking horse for minutes on end…Only to be forced to get off by a kid sized bladder and the need to drain the dragon.

Some brave inventor has said, “Screw that jazz. I piss where I play. Never again will play be cut short.” And so it is that we have…this. The Rocking Horse Toilet.

Designer Perry Dixon claims that the Rocking Horse Toilet provides health benefits because of its unique construction. The “rider” can expel waste more effectively because his knees are elevated thanks to the foot pegs.

I don’t care how he spins it. He wanted an excuse to piss on a toy horse due to his Western/Cowboy/Piss fetish.

Indiana Jones Electronic FX Whip
April 29th, 2008

Indiana Jones Electronic FX Whip
The new Indiana Jones film will hit theaters in less than a month. Now you can get yourself a toy version of Indy’s most famous accessory. The bull whip. “Throw me the idol, I’ll throw you the whip.”

Watch your kid break every damn thing in your house, while he’s pretending to be an archaeologist.

Yes, it’s lame. Not dangerous at all. It’s a three foot soft whip with a plastic handle that plays authentic whip-cracking sound effects as you swing it, and the well-known Indiana Jones theme music. A switch on the handle turns the sounds on and off, and it even features a carrying strap for attaching it to your belt. It will cost you $26.99.

I personally was hoping for something a bit more dangerous.

The Millennium Falcon We should Have Had As Kids
April 14th, 2008

Millenium Falcon
This is THE Millennium Falcon toy that never arrived when we were kids. They had everything else, but no good Millenium Falcon. The 2.5-foot Hasbro Star Wars Legacy Collection Millennium Falcon, is probably the most realistic Falcon toy you can buy. It’s got LEDs everywhere, sound, movable parts, and absolutely every detail imaginable. The detail on this thing is absolutely stunning my friends.

Rejoice fellow geeks…but not so loudly that your mother kicks you out of the basement.

April 1st, 2008

Plush Stormtrooper
These Star Wars plush dolls have been around for awhile now, in the shape of Darth Vader, Chewbacca and Yoda. But everyone knows that Stormtroopers are the coolest. His big head won’t even scare you in this cuddly form.

He should arrive in July 2008 over at Entertainment Earth.

The Simpsons: Treehouse of Horror II Bendy Figures Set
Who doesn’t love the Simpsons? Now you can relive some of the Treehouse Of Horror episodes with this second set. You get Flanders as the devil, Homer as King Kong and Mr. Burns as Dracula.

Bend them. Pose them. Make them hump Luke Skywalker, while Leia is bound and gagged and forced to watch, for all I care.
