Big Lebowski Talking Jesus Action Figure
The Big Lebowski is one of those cult films that seem to last through the ages, boasting a staying power which one could never have predicted right from the get go. If you happen to love the film to bits, and have memorized all of the quotable quotes, then here is something for your collection which would certainly bring a smile to your face. The £34.99 Big Lebowski Talking Jesus Action Figure does just as how it is described – where it will depict John Turturro’s scene-stealing, scenery-chewing turn as the Dude’s snake-hipped bowling rival, Jesus Quintana. Also know as “The Jesus”, the few lines that he mutters out are now immortalized for good.
The speaker is located on the base, and “The Jesus” stands at 8” tall, being exquisitely detailed figure which will share seven of his well-known catchphrases. Of course, kids ought to have their ears shielded whenever the Big Lebowski Talking Jesus Action Figure starts talking, since most of his lines are filled to the brim with expletives, where there is no point listing them down since it would be filled with nothing but asterisks after all.
Swann has trio of new RC helicopters
When it comes to remote controlled helicopters, you cannot really go wrong with a name like Swann backing such an endeavor. After all, this company has had ample experience in the past, rolling out decent RC helicopters, and they now have a trio of new additions with two of those sporting on-board wireless video cameras, while the other will be able to “talk” to an iPhone, iPod and iPad. Both the Sky Eye and Black Swann will allow you to record your flights as either videos, or you can also snap still photos with but a single touch of a button. Needless to say, these images and videos can be retrieved only after you land the helicopter and transfer it to a PC via USB.
Something tells me that with this new, albeit rather obvious, spying capability, your neighbor who loves sunbathing in the nude might just think twice before going out in his/her birthday suit. Let us take a look at the three RC helicopters in greater detail after the jump.

Quantum Scale knows how to keep a secret
Unlike Aunt Gertrude who tends to poke her nose in areas that are not wanted, the £49.99 Quantum Scale is one faithful companion that ladies will appreciate far more than guys, and for one sole reason – it is capable of keeping one of your closely guarded secrets (the other being your actual age), so you need not worry about it having loose digital lips even when it is being threatened with death by drowning, being an electrical item and all. The Quantum Scale works by memorizing your weight the first time you step upon it, and the next umpteenth times you decide to weigh yourself, it will just display the amount of weight that you have shed – or heaven forbid, gained.
Definitely an amazing motivator for those who are looking for ways to shed off the post holiday gluttony sessions, and it will also put things into perspective as it enables you to focus on how far you’ve come (or fallen behind, for those who tend to lead a rather lax lifestyle) instead of how much farther you need to push yourself on before hitting your ideal weight class.
Jamproof Programmable Pet Feeder
Whenever you are away for a couple of days and do not want to incur any more expenses on your already tight monthly budget, then you would surely take your chances by leaving your beloved pet cat all alone at home – closing all avenues of escaping at the same time. As for feeding issues, it is nice to know that there are automatic pet feeders out there, but what happens when modern technology runs into some trouble and gets jammed? Enter the $249.95 Jamproof Programmable Pet Feeder, I suppose.
This programmable device is capable of dispensing kibble automatically, making sure your beloved feline is properly fed on schedule – and I am quite sure dog kibble would work fine, too, although a dog who has yet to be house-trained to do its potty business at the same spot might not be such a good idea to be away from for a couple of days. This model ensures no jams happen thanks to a patented flexible drive mechanism which is said to be virtually impossible to clog. It plays nice with moist of wet kibble, so go on and take that long deserved break without any worries!
The Perch makes sure you take your charger with you
Some of you might remember the ZOMM, the intriguing little disc that syncs with your phone via Bluetooth. The ZOMM and your phone will not be separated without an alarm, and the purpose is to prevent theft and/or loss of a cellular phone.
What about the charger? Those get lost all the time. Fortunately, there is going to be a little bit of low-cost insurance for your charger called the Perch. It is essentially a device that “perches” between the charger and the outlet, and it will go off with a chirping sound when you remove your mobile device from the charger, provided the charging cord is plugged into the wall and the Perch.
The Perch is not available for purchase now, but it projected to be on display at CES. I am really surprised at its projected price, which is only $10. Generally, I see products like these for sale for at least $24.99. So, for a small price, you can have this bit of charger insurance.

Enso Pearl clock helps you start off the new year right
“Don’t be a clock watcher,” said the boss in my first job. Needless to say, the pretense of my presence in the office means more to him than my productivity, so I left shortly after that to a far more rewarding and fulfilling vocation. I am quite sure if he had the £79.99 Enso Pearl in the office all those years ago, things might have been a little different, and I might have stayed – just for a little while longer, actually. Enso, meaning ‘circle’ in Japanese, is so slim and is a beauty to look at, and it counts down slowly by forming a complete circle around the LCD face.
Perfect for those moments when your mind does not want to look at numbers as those could very well be too distracting, including moments when you are meditating, holding a yoga pose, or making sure you are burning those calories with a few spinning exercises on an exercise bike. The Enso Pearl delivers a precise and clear idea of how much time has passed, including the remaining time without having to work those brains of yours. You can set up to 50 sequential times, and if you opt to exercise with your eyes closed, fret not – the Enso will deliver audio cues to help you out, relying on the gentle chimes of Tibetan or Japanese singing bowls.
Touch Screen Heart Rate Watch
Marking your workout’s progress can be quite a chore, but then again, I supposed if you have the discipline to work out each day without having to drag yourself out of bed, keeping track of your health record should not be too hard to do. The $99.99 Touch Screen Heart Rate Watch might help you out here, where it enables easy monitoring of your heart rate in order to maintain and improve on your cardio intensity target.
Basically, the Touch Screen Heart Rate Watch delivers an accurate reading to you without the need to wear an uncomfortable chest strap, and neither do you need to fiddle around with a wide range of function buttons while ensuring your activity level remains at the same, high intensity pace. All you need to do is touch The Touch Screen Heart Rate Watch’s bezel, and within seconds, you will be able to see what your current heart rate is. The LCD display is a snap to read, and it also doubles up as a watch, calendar and stopwatch. Love exercising at dusk? Fret not, there is a light-up display to help you there. Since the New Year is tonight, why not make a resolution and sweat away those pounds in 2012, with the help of the Touch Screen Heart Rate Watch?
LG 3D Ultra Definition TV is world’s largest
Having a (positive) superlative describing your product is definitely something that most, if not all, hardware manufacturers would love to experience. LG Electronics steps up to the plate, full of confidence, that their 3D Ultra Definition (UD) TV is the largest in the world. Of course, you can tell by the name alone that Ultra Definition is far better than High Definition, so I cannot wait to see just what kind of images my eyes will be greeted with at CES 2012 that is happening in less than a fortnight’s time in Las Vegas.
Basically, this unique display will debut at CES 2012 next year, where it will sport 84″ of viewing goodness, while ensuring it breaks new ground where immersive 3D home entertainment is concerned. To put it in the words of Havis Kwon, President and CEO of LG Electronics Home Entertainment Company, “LG is pushing the limits of home entertainment innovation with this 3D UD TV. We are bringing together all our Smart TV and 3D knowledge in the 3D UD TV in order to demonstrate to the CES audience that LG is committed to being the world’s leading brand for immersive home entertainment in 2012 and beyond.”
