Hasta La Gadget!

So, you might not be a very good scientist, and neither are you a genius, billionaire, playboy, philanthropist, but at the very least, you have $29.99 in your pockets or bank account to pick up the Iron Man Arc Reactor Lab from Thinkgeek, right? Bring to life your aspiring desire to be the fictional Tony Stark (of course, one does wonder, would Tony Stark win a battle against Bruce Wayne?) with this Iron Man Arc Reactor Lab, where it has been described to be a science kit for little Tony Stark wannabes. Boasting of two dozen different combinations of chips, it even comes with a nightlight mode with a display stand – you know, to scare away monsters from under the bed or inside the closet.

This will definitely bring the creativity level of your wee ones to the next level. After all, leaving them with a box of scraps will see them create something with enough time, all thanks to the wonders of their imagination despite their limited physical resources. This Arc Reactor is not going to power your home anytime soon, but rebuilding it in different ways would result in different light and power effects, how cool is that? Each Iron Man Arc Reactor Lab purchase would be accompanied by an educational poster that ties Iron Man to real world science, and a trio of AAA batteries are required to power this thing.

I am quite sure that the legions of fans of what Marvel Studios has done with their comic book franchises will be looking forward to the arrival of the Thor sequel, where it will be known as The Dark World. The Norse god of Thunder, Thor, has been reunited with Mjolnir, the mystical uru hammer that cannot be lifted by anyone other than the one who is worthy to wield it. However, everything has its price, which is why for just $24.99, you will be able to pick up the Thor Lightning Energy Hammer. Sure, it might not be the actual Mjolnir, but at the very least you could get your imagination going, can’t you?

The Thor Lightning Energy Hammer will be able to flash with light and sound of its own, but you are able to add your very own vocal sound effects if you wish to do so, letting out the inner child in you along the way. It might not be able to cut down Frost Giants with impunity, but it does double up as a metal detector, sporting a light-up display base with an energy charge coin that bears Thor’s emblem. Powered by a couple of AAA batteries instead of magic, any kid worth his or her salt would definitely want to have this by their bedside table – and some adults too, I believe.

Do you think that people read less these days? I am referring to the fact that we seem to have become a fast paced society, so much so that everything needs to be delivered instantly – and news is read in bite sized chunks, which means anything you write online will need to capture the attention of the reader right from the get go, all the while maintaining a level of accuracy and professionalism. Well, for the rest of us who prefer to get our reading done as a form of relaxation, fret not – Thinkgeek’s here to save the day with the $15.99 Lazyglasses, which is a reading accessory that sports special mirrored lenses, and the text can be read at -90 degrees, now how about that?

Crafted from a soft-touch plastic, the Lazyglasses will let you lie down flat on your back, allowing you to be as comfortable as you want to be, while watching TV at your feet. If you want to use your computer while lying down, that can also be arranged, since both your keyboard and mouse will remain upright, all the while you are prone. The Lazyglasses is definitely something which lets you relax, kick back and enjoy all the while without hurting your neck or your back.

With replicators in every room, the crew of the U.S.S. Enterprise technically didn’t need to cook anything while away on their missions. But such technology is well beyond our grasp at the moment, and the daily task of prepping meals is thankfully made slightly less mundane when you’ve got the Enterprise in hand to flip flapjacks.

Remote controlled toys have definitely become a whole lot more complicated than ever before, thanks to the massive advancements made in the world of electronics and sensors. I remember back in the day when I was still a little kid running around with some snot oozing down my nostril, there was this robot that could move its hands vertically, while it moved in one direction on a flat surface until it hit an obstacle, where the revolving base will then change direction. Well, fast forward to the second decade of the 21st century, and we have gems such as the $79.99 Doom Razor Attacknid R/C Combat Creatures.

The Doom Razor Attacknid R/C Combat Creatures allows you to scuttle into battle on your six legs, where it boasts of an extremely maneuverable body. Boasting a Bolt n’ Battle weapons system which will include a dissector disc attachment as well as 20 discs, all you need to do is clip on your red and black combat armor and scuttle into battle. The half dozen legs of yours with a 360 degree rotating head would let you wreak havoc, just make sure that your Battle Brain does not get hit 3 times, otherwise it is curtains for your Attacknid. Half a dozen AA batteries is required to run the entire shebang, so rechargeables would be highly recommended.
