Doctor Who Dalek Eye Stalk Flashlight

by Edwin - on May 19, 2013

No one likes to live in the dark permanently, and there is nothing quite like the feeling of the dawn breaking right after a long night. Having a flashlight handy around is always a good idea, as you can never quite tell just when there might be a blackout. Since you are mulling over just which flashlight model to purchase, you might as well get one that aligns with your love for all things Doctor Who, where it will come in the form of the $29.99 Doctor Who Dalek Eye Stalk Flashlight.

This is a flashlight that lives up to its namesake as it resembles a Dalek eyestalk, and it is a good thing that this is nowhere near as threatening compared to an actual Dalek. Each time you turn on the Doctor Who Dalek Eye Stalk Flashlight, it will play some Dalek sound effects for that added touch of realism to accompany your imagination. The Doctor Who Dalek Eye Stalk Flashlight will be powered by a couple of AA batteries, and among the phrases muttered are, “You are the Doctor. You must be exterminated.”, “You must be exterminated.”, and “Scan reveals nothing.”

Ricasol Bra Dryer

by Edwin - on May 18, 2013

Ladies, now this is something that you would want to check out considering how bras are extremely delicate and expensive items to own, so keeping them bras in good condition is a prerequisite. Enter the Ricasol Bra Dryer, where this unique home appliance would be able to dry your bras without damaging them. It will take anywhere from 20 to 30 minutes to get your bras dried, where it will make use of an infrared light which will gently warm up your bra, while evaporating the moisture that is located in the bra padding and fabric.

With the Ricasol Bra Dryer, you can kiss goodbye to drying your bras on a line, or hanging them up on a shower bar or door knob, or to take the long hard route of using a hair dryer. Bras with underwires especially will need to be treated with special care, as the delicate components within are easily damaged using conventional drying methods. In a nutshell, the Ricasol Bra Dryer is a snap to use and stash away thanks to its relatively small form factor.

by Edwin - on May 18, 2013

Is there nothing out of the ordinary that you can give dad to bring a smile to his face? A luxury watch might be a good idea, but it is not unique.

Wish Pearl – Harvest a Real Pearl, without Getting Wet!

by Julie - on May 17, 2013

I always held true to the old adage that tells us it’s the thought that counts, but that being said, I’ve had a lot of great thoughts… but they’re not at all better than getting some extravagant present. However, when I cant afford extravagance I like to go for something so unique or bizarre that the recipient exclaims “where did you find that!?” Hence my family has some pretty weird stuff.

iPhone Controlled Musical Mercedes SLS

by Edwin - on May 17, 2013

Remember how Pierce Brosnan, in his role as 007 in Tomorrow Never Dies, where he drove a BMW 750iL with a Sony Ericsson handset? Well, you might not be as suave and debonair as the dashing super spy, but you too, can live out your fantasy of driving your dream car with a phone, too. I am referring to the $129.95 iPhone Controlled Musical Mercedes SLS here, but there is one major difference between your Mercedes SLS compared to Bond’s BMW 750iL. The latter’s ride is the real deal, and can actually ferry you (and three other lovely ladies around), while the iPhone Controlled Musical Mercedes SLS is pretty much a toy. Still, I guess this is where you exercise the power of your imagination to get the job done.

The iPhone Controlled Musical Mercedes SLS will also enable a smartphone’s personal soundtrack to accompany luxury grand tours, where a free app enables you to send the Mercedes SLS all over the floor (within range, that is) as music continues to play via the iPhone. Whenever the tiny ride stops, its gull wing doors will pop open and music will then be streamed to the car’s onboard speakers, how cool is that? The Mercedes SLS will also be able to move and flash its lights in tempo with the music in order to deliver a fully synchronized joyride. Motion-sensing accelerometers in the iPhone would enable one to accelerate forward or backward, while turning the car is as simple as tilting and panning your smartphone. Other interactive capabilities include the ability to illuminate the car’s turn signals, brake lights, headlamps, and interior light.

Dr Who Tardis USB 4 Port Hub

by Edwin - on May 17, 2013

Are all USB hubs created equal? The correct answer would be, “No”, and a resounding one at that, too. After all, hardcore Dr Who fans might even start to fantasize that the £22.95 Dr Who Tardis USB 4 Port Hub which they see here is able to send them into a time warp, but even if to their great disappointment that it does not, at least you have a quartet of USB ports available for you to plug in a plethora of other devices into your PC or Mac, as and when required.

If you do not want to start off the work week on a dull note, then the Dr Who Tardis USB 4 Port Hub is your cup of tea (or coffee), as each time you plug it in, the lantern at the top will flash, alongside the classic time travelling sound effects. Needless to say, just in case the rest of your colleagues get jealous of the latest toy at the office, you can always turn off the special sound effect to annoy them less. Definitely more than capable of brightening up any work space for sure.
