Hasta La Gadget!

Everybody has one: a toy from their childhood that will always have a special significance in their lives. For John Bennett, it was Ted, a stuffed teddy bear that came to life after John wished for it one Christmas night.

If you saw the movie, then you saw firsthand how awesome having a stuffed teddy bear for a best friend is. Not so awesome for your girlfriend at the outset, but at least you’ll know that everything will work out somehow at the very end.

Now on to the good news: if you’ve never had a Ted before in your life (or lost it after your mom threw it out when you went off to college), then you can get one again thanks to ThinkGeek.

They’re selling a miniature stuffed Ted teddy bear that utters a few choice vulgar phrases with every squeeze. It’s smaller than the Ted featured in the movie, but at least the voice is as real as it gets, as it’s provided by the one and only Seth MacFarlane. And despite the bleeps you hear in the video below, rest assured that the actual teddy bear is uncensored.

The Ted R-Rated Talking Plush is available from ThinkGeek for $14.99(USD).

We think it’s safe to say much of our audience enjoys a good video game every so often. The Mega Man series is one we’re also sure you’ve heard of as Capcom’s iconic blue bomber has appeared in a large library of games, that’s why when we saw this plush arm cannon and helmet, we know you’d certainly appreciate it.

Both of the Mega Man arm cannon pillow and helmet are available at E-Capcom for 6,090円 ($61.13 USD) and as you can see in the images, you not only can take a nap with either one, but you can also wear them to make you seem a lot less crazy when you tell people you are, in fact, Mega Man. Just remember that you need to stay at least 300 yards away from your next door neighbor who you insist looks just like Dr. Wily or else he could call his latest creation called “Police Man” to take you downtown and rough you up a bit.

With the introduction of Google’s Chrome and stepped-up games from the likes of Internet Explorer and Safari, Firefox is arguably not quite the darling of the browser wars it was when it first hit the scene in 2003. And while Mozilla has certainly made progress on that front, the organization understands that diversifying is an important factor in the future success of the company, first through Thunderbird and more recently through the Firefox OS, a mobile operating system targeted toward users in developing nations. G-Fox, meanwhile, marks a decidedly different direction for the foundation, which has made its name in the world of software. It’s an adorable attempt, perhaps, to take the world’s bedrooms and playrooms by storm.

The plush is the real-world port of G-Fox, Mozilla Online China’s large-headed, big-eyed take on the American mascot, Kit. The fox was first spotted in the wild at last year’s Mobile Asia Expo in Shanghai. Mozilla Online wasn’t talking it up too much at the event, but naturally, we couldn’t wait to get our hands on an early build. And for a first-generation product in a new space, we have to say, in the whole time we’ve been playing around with G-Fox, we’ve yet to encounter a single crash or slowdown in spite of extensive squeezing, head patting and tossing up in the air, adorably.

Check out these new plush Direwolves. They are from a new line of Game of Thrones toys from Factory Entertainment. Aside from Direwolves, they will be offering plush dragon eggs, dragons and shield-shaped throw pillows as well as some prop replicas and sculptural miniatures.

The plush Direwolves are the best though. They are soft and cuddly and not dangerous at all. Ghost has red eyes. But as much as I like these soft Direwolves, I can’t help but want some plush White Walkers. That would be awesome. These wolves are pretty cool though. I would cuddle one if I were a Stark.

They were spotted at the recent New York Toy Fair, and should be available this Summer.

We all have our favorite Avengers. Personally, I’ve always liked Iron Man and Thor the best, but after Mark Ruffalo’s take on the green guy this past summer, I’m beginning to like the Hulk again too. Well regardless of which Avenger is your favorite, we can all agree that owls are pretty awesome creatures. So what could be better than Avengers owls?

Artist Morgan Chambers makes cool stuffed owls based on pop culture figures, among them The Avengers. These 7-inch-tall plush superheroes are handmade using eco-felt, and ready to take on all villains who dare to come their way. Okay, so them may not have any actual superpowers, but they will kill them with cuteness – one of the most dastardly weapons known to villainkind.

Oh, and if you’re feeing villainous, you can always go for the Loki owl.

For $35(USD) you can get a single plush owl, or for $95, you can pick your favorite three , and Morgan will make them for you. Since they are handmade, you’ll have to wait about a week per plush for them to be made, but the end result will be worth it. Just tell those supervillains they have to wait.
