Eye of Sauron Tower
Star Wars Death Star Trench Cornhole set (My early frontrunner for most likely to be actually made.)

(9,077 posts)1. George Takei's on FB is pretty good too
Friends, I am thrilled to announce that I'll be starring in the Star Wars reboot directed by JJ Abrams. I'll be playing Master Ceti Maru, a member of the Jedi High Council. The new film, entitled "Star Wars: Galactic Empire," is greenlit and will begin filming sometime early next year. It is truly a moment for The Star Alliance. Thanks to all my fans for their decades of support.

God, those family ones annoy me. We love thinkgeek---we bought 3 annoy-a-trons. They work!
Fyi: your link doesn't work.

How can you tell the difference between the fake products on ThinkGeek and the real ones? So many are kind of April Fool's Dayish in nature.

(34,120 posts)5. I actually like the moodINQ - Programmable Tattoo System
The moodInq system is a breakthrough in tattoo technology, using a skin-safe proprietary E ink encapsulated pigment system that lasts a lifetime but can be configured to display any design (or none!) to suit your mood. So how does it work? We have partnered with leading physicians and technicians in the cosmetic surgery industry to implant the E ink grid, called a canvas. The canvas can go anywhere on your body and be configured to the size and shape of the body party you'd like to ink. After a short healing period (usually 2-3 days), you can begin using the moodInq software included with your kit to change your canvas to display the tattoo you desire!
