Sonic Screwdriver Briefcase: Timelord Toolbox

There are plenty of replica sonic screwdrivers out there for fans of Doctor Who to collect. The last one we talked about was the War Doctor’s Sonic Screwdriver. If you have a collection of sonic screwdrivers that you need a place to store and show off, this is the perfect DIY project for you.

One Whovian going by the name 00failure has used MDF and wood veneer to create an awesome chest that displays his collection of sonic screwdrivers. The collectables are tucked away inside foam with cutouts the perfect size to keep them in place.

The builder went so far as to laser cut Gallifreyan symbols into the veneer. The finished products is very cool. However, I must confess to not watching the show, so I see what appears to be a tube of lipstick, a pocket watch, and some odd keys inside as well that I don’t know the significance of.

Iron Man 2: 1/4 Scale Mark V Suitcase Mobile Fuel Cell Will Keep You Powered up

Iron Man 2 may not have been one of the best Marvel movies made, but it had a lot of nice details and eye candy. Which is great for merchandising. Take the scene on the race track where Tony Stark’s armor comes to life from a suitcase. That was probably the best scene in the movie, so of course you can now buy that suitcase – as a battery pack.

It won’t turn into armor, but this prop replica will power your gadgets. The Mark V armor suitcase fuel cell is a 1/4 scale replica, and it was made from official Marvel references like the original prop and 3D digital files. Inside, it’s got a large 12,000 mAH battery pack, and the lights on the side of the briefcase indicate the power level remaining.

It looks awesome and makes for a kick-ass power for your phones, mobile devices, and gaming consoles. You can pre-order it for $99.99(USD) over at BigBadToyStore.

Of course, if you really want to splurge, you could go for this full-size Iron Man 2 briefcase replica over on eBay.

Star Wars Suitcases: Pack Your Bags for a Galaxy Far, Far Away

These Star Wars suitcases are a great way to pack for your next trip to sunny Mos Eisley, wintery Hoth, swampy Dagobah or even the Death Star resort in orbit.

These suitcases are from crafter AmandaJeannn and they show the world her love of Star Wars while she’s at the airport or on the road. She covered these bags in Star Wars fabric and they look amazing. As an added bonus, they’re easy to identify on the baggage carousel.

But for some reason I have an overwhelming urge to see Jar Jars head in one of these.

Suitcase Stickers Will Make You Miss Your Flight – or Worse

Unless you want to miss your flight on purpose or have airport security personnel give you a full body cavity search, you probably shouldn’t stick these otherwise hilarious Suitcase Stickers onto your luggage.

For obvious reasons…

Suitcase Stickers

The stickers available in several designs: air stewardess (who’s trapped in your bag), sugar (which is clearly not sugar…), cash (which is stacked in neat piles in a totally not suspicious way at all), and an “adult” version, which we’re not showing here – but you can use your imagination.

Suitcase Stickers1

Fittingly enough, the product page carries the following warning:

Caution: Some of these stickers may cause offense to airport and immigration staff. But you would have figured that out whilst enjoying those cavity searches.

Suitcase Stickers2

Fortunately, these stickers have been designed to “stick to anything”, so you’re not limited to using them on your suitcases. Stick them on your wall, on your bed, in your car, and anywhere else where you feel like making a mess of things.

Suitcase Stickers retail for $7.50(USD) each from The Cheeky.

Hotello is a Hotel Room in a Suitcase!

Hotello gives new meaning to that expression about someone ‘living out of a suitcase.’ This usually refers to people who can’t find the time to unpack, which is why they grab clothes and other essentials straight out of their suitcase after they get home from a trip. Hotello is basically an entire room in a neat and portable package.

Hotel Suitcase1

The Hotello was designed by Antonio Scarponi and Robert de Luca for Swiss design group Das Konzept. Everything you need is contained in a red trunk with wheels on the bottom so you can take it around with you easily. When you need to set up your room, just open it up and set up the metal structure to hold up the sound-absorbent curtains.

Hotel Suitcase

Pull out the bed, set up the stool and table, and put up the rack where you can hang your clothes. When things get too dark, just flip the switch to turn on the lamp that’s attached to a poseable arm.

The only thing the Hotello lacks is a bathroom – but I think that’s asking for way too much.

Pre-Damaged Luggage: You Don’t Have to Worry, It’s Already Dinged Up

Whenever you go on a plane and check your luggage, it always feels like a gamble. You might never see it again or it might be all banged up when you get it back, because we know that luggage gets tossed around a lot on planes.

The Crash Baggage line was created by Venetian designer Francesco Pavia, after observing that new suitcases can easily get beaten up, creating added stress while traveling. This new design is supposed to be a workaround. If your luggage is already beaten up, you never have to worry about it getting damaged.

The hard-shelled plastic luggage already comes with the typical dents caused by frequent use. Over time, any new dents will just add more character. Crash Baggage will be available for purchase April 1st and will come in four sizes – including 2 carry-ons – starting at $135(USD) each.

Micro Scooter Luggage Helps Make Airports Less Boring, More Dangerous

Airports aren’t much fun, especially if your flight is delayed or you are rushing to make a connecting flight. That’s one of the reasons why this scooter luggage looks pretty cool. You can scoot around, with a coffee in one hand and making your way through the sea of people sauntering slowly to their gates.

micro scooter luggage

Micro Scooter Luggage was developed by Kickboard in collaboration with Samsonite and has a hard-side construction. Its 26L capacity and folding handle make it an approved carry-on. But its main feature is the three-wheeled, folding scooter board attached to the bottom of the bag.

I don’t know what the TSA will say about this thing, and how they’ll respond when you scoot up to security – probably with a full cavity search, but it looks like a smart and fun idea anyhow.

It costs $249.99(USD) and is available at the Kickboard’s US website, or on Amazon.
