Here’s a worthy weapon to bring to a pillow fight, an officially-licensed Thwomp pillow. If you’re wondering why Nintendo would bother releasing a merchandise for a semi-living obstacle, remember that in some Mario games these dudes are flat out invincible. If they could move Bowser wouldn’t be king.
You can order the Thwomp pillow from ThinkGeek for about $35 (USD) or from Amazon for $25. Or you could always just paint a cinder block and sit on that instead.
While some of us require complete and total silence before we are able to actually catch some shuteye, others would need to have their favorite soothing tunes playing in the background – as the dead silence of the night drives them completely bonkers. Well, we are glad to say that the £39.99 Bluetooth iMusic Pillow plays this role perfectly, where it is far more comfortable and less sweaty compared to wearing a pair of headphones as you go to bed.
Not only that, the clever implementation of Bluetooth connectivity would mean you no longer run the risk of ending up in a tangled mess the next morning, just like your hair. Whether you purchase the Bluetooth iMusic Pillow to cure your insomnia, to listen to music or to learn a new foreign language, it has a built-in speaker that was specially designed so that it will not be a cause of disturbance to folks sleeping around you, all the while working as an aural “shield” against heavy snorers, now how about that?

The secret to getting a good night’s rest would be having a comfortable bed, as well as being in the right temperature, with a nice pillow and bolster for others. Of course, it also helps if everything around you was deathly quiet, and for some of us, we would need to have a decent soothing soundtrack playing in the background. With the $69.95 Sleep Sound Generating Pillow, you can be ushered into dreamland faster than you can count up to 100 sheep.
The Sleep Sound Generating Pillow happens to be a cordless plush pillow which will play back white noise as well as nine relaxing nature sounds so that you will be able to sleep faster than you have ever done before. Instead of having to deal with the nasty tangles of a headphone cord, there will be well hidden speakers in the pillow which will be able to deliver clear audio without bulky components. Apart from that, it also helps keep the sound close to your ear, resulting in a lower level of play volume compared to speakers so that others in the same room as you, too, will be able to sleep.

Do you have an issue with snoring, or are sleeping beside a heavy snorer that it has proven difficult for you to get a good night’s rest? Perhaps you are at your wit’s end as you have just about tried everything in the market in order to get rid of the snoring issue, and a pair of earplugs do you no good either, if you happen to be on the “receiving end”. Is there some light at the end of the tunnel? The $149.95 Snore Activated Nudging Pillow could be a potential “sleep saver” in this case, where this pillow is smart enough to detect that snoring is in progress, where it will then “nudge” a sleeper into shifting positions without having to have any kind of spousal intervention.
I’m surprised that this invention has not made it to the top 10 on anyone’s list just yet, and hopefully, it will be able to work like a dream – pun not intended. The pillow itself has an integrated microphone which will be able to pick up the sonic vibrations of snoring, where it will then automatically inflate an internal air bladder which will increase the pillow’s depth by 3″. That ought to be just enough movement that can rouse a sleeper into moving head or body position without waking that person up outright. There is also a 30-minute delay setting so that one can fall asleep without triggering inflation.

While it’s no Slaking, the Snorlax is one lazy Pokémon. In fact, he only awakens to eat 900 pounds of food, then goes right back to sleep. So there’s no better Pokémon to keep you company in bed than a Snorlax.
So start saving your pennies now, and order this Snorlax pillow that’s perfect for catching naps in between meals. It’s available for pre-order now from Toys Logic for $39.99(USD), and is expected to start shipping on 6/30/14 – assuming it doesn’t sleep through that date.
Only one problem I can see with this thing is that it might wake you in the middle of the night to eat.

That’s right folks, it’s a pillow with a rechargeable battery inside. It may seem like a joke, or at best something you wouldn’t pay for – I’ll just stuff my battery inside my pillow! – but the more you read about the Power Pillow the more reasonable it sounds.
The Power Pillow was obviously made for those times when there’s no electrical outlet near your bed or couch. The bundled 12,000mAh rechargeable battery fits inside the pillow’s soft compartment, although you’re free to place other batteries inside the compartment. The battery has two 5V USB ports – one charges at 2.1A and the other at 1A.
Power Pillow is currently raising funds on Kickstarter. The original plan for was for it to come with two batteries, the idea being one battery will be ready to use while the other is being charged. But for the duration of the fundraiser a pledge of at least $74 (USD) gets you a Power Pillow with one 12,000mAh battery and one micro-USB cable. Pledge at least $125 if you want to get two batteries (and two micro-USB cables) with the pillow. You can also pick from several designs for the pillow cover.

Earlier this year we saw the awesome oversized N64 pillow made by Donna Marie Evans. Donna was bombarded by requests for the pillow, but last month a customer asked her to make a controller pillow from an earlier Nintendo console. The result is this very huggable SNES controller pillow.
Donna said that this pillow was harder to make than the N64 one, partly because of the Super Nintendo phrase. She had to embroider it by hand because she doesn’t have a cutting edge embroidery machine. Contact her on deviantART if you want your own SNES pillow.
Fans of Data from Star Trek: The Next Generation can now lay their head on a miniature version of the champion poker player and Geordi’s best friend. Isn’t he cute?
This version of Data is square, but still pretty adorable. I love how he even has his rank pips and the eye color seems accurate. It was made by Etsy artist Morondanga and is ready for your next nap.
If Data isn’t enough for you there is also a three pack available with Data, Picard and Worf. Data is just $23.59(USD), and he measures 16-inches-square. He is the perfect Enterprise crew member to take a nap on!
