Oh, you’re still here? Excellent. I’ve been hunkered down in an underground bunker waiting for Skynet to go on a rampage and trigger Judgment Day, but I guess everything turned out okay. Wait! What’s that? Oh, no. It’s the Terminator Endoskeleton Model T-800. The stories were true. Run for your [...]

A flashlight might seem like the magic of the gods to someone who’s been living under a rock for the last few centuries, but it’s just a regular, mundane flashlight to everyone else. Wouldn’t it be cool to be like Harry Potter and chase away the darkness with a wand and a simple incantation? [...]

Every year ThinkGeek.com creates some fake products for April Fool’s Day, such as the Apple Store Playset and Lightsaber Popsicles from this year. Sometimes these gags are turned into real products, like the iCade, which was a prank item last year, but will be out soon as a real product. Such is the [...]

I felt like I fell through a time-warp when I saw this awesome blast from the past. The original BigTrak was an incredible toy that was ahead of its time. Now, the BigTrak Jr Programmable Rover takes all that 1979 goodness and makes it even [...]

Using words of simplicity is best when communicating. No one has time for long explanations anymore, so break down the excess jargon with stamps that are honest, concise and speak an international language we all know: “Like” and “Dislike.” The Like/Dislike Self-Inking Stamp Set [...]
