As its name suggests, this thrilling game of laser tag is truly shocking – and we don’t mean it pulls its pants down and hurls abuse the minute you open the box (although that would be quite funny). You see, unlike standard pansy laser tag sets, this state-of-the-art shoot ‘em up is truly electrifying. That’s because a direct hit to your opponent’s chest plate delivers a nasty (but harmless) electric shock via the butt of your opponent’s super-futuristic pistol.
The Shocking Laser Guns is available from Firebox for $49.95.

Nerf Vulcan Automatic Heavy Blaster – $49.99
The Nerf Vulcan is definitely not for the weak. Weighing about 8 pounds, this blaster instantly levels the playing field. Its ammo belt box holds an ammo belt loaded up with 25 screaming mini darts. Your enemies will cower when they come face to face with the Vulcan. They’ll scream when they see you click on the automatic fire button. They’ll see their life flash before their eyes when they hear the darts scream out at 3 per second and watch the empty belt beginning popping out of the blaster. And they’ll most certainly surrender when they are hit with 25 darts faster than they can even shoot one. The Vulcan Heavy Automatic Blaster is the Nerf gun to end all Nerf guns. Get one now . . . before the other side of the office does.
The Nerf Vulcan Automatic Heavy Blaster is available from Think Geek for $49.99.

Doctor Who Laser Battle Set – $59.99
Each set includes one Sonic and one Laser Screwdriver full of IR sensors and emitters (and show-accurate lights and sounds). While they don’t extend, they do shoot beams at each other. Each one starts at full power (represented by 5 LEDs on the handle), with one level of power disappearing with each hit. Get hit 5 times, and (as they say on Gallifrey) you’re toast. And for building your skills when you are alone, the set comes with a little Toclafane Practice Target. Everything you need to be as sure a shot as Doctor Who.
The Doctor Who Laser Battle Set is available from Think Geek for $59.99.

Remote Controlled Gyroscopic Flying Saucer – $79.95
This remote-controlled UFO has four individual propellers and three self-calibrating gyro sensors that provide optimal thrust and stability for daring aerial maneuvers. The four propellers generate enough thrust to send the device up to 24′ in the air without requiring a hand-launch, and the flying saucer remains parallel to the ground as it climbs, descends, and hovers in place. The remote’s digital proportional control ensures precise handling at the slightest touch of the throttle and joystick, providing optimal control through tight turns. Made from durable foam, the flying saucer’s body withstands turbulent flights and crash landings.
The Remote Controlled Gyroscopic Flying Saucer is available from Hammacher for $79.95.

Nintendo’s Wii video game system (pronounced “we”) brings people of all ages and video game experience together to play.
