Portable Train Set

briefcasetrain

Any boy looking to relive his days of playing with model train sets will be excited to know there’s now an option for us working adults. This working train set is set inside an elegant briefcase, ensuring portability and anonymity no matter the location. Little figures adorn the landscape as the train keeps a’ rollin’, all night long. The only catch? It costs $1500. Ouch.

Public Service Announcement On The Go

You don’t need a DJ Mobile to be able to make public announcements over a loud speaker. Take a look at this briefcase.  It’s transportable and it’s got a built-in sound system that includes a 20-watt amplifier and 4″ speakers.  While it may not have a toilet inside of it like the Gotta Go Briefcase, it’s got the next best thing.

What’s the next best thing, you ask? The ability to be able to announce to everyone that you’ve divorced Carolyn and you’re eloping with Sarah Palin. It can be powered for up to four hours by eight C batteries or an AC plug. At $350 bucks, embarrassing unwanted attention awaits you.

Briefcase Seat Gives The While Collar Type Yet Another Place To Sit

You’d think that your average white collar cubicle warrior would be hellbent on actually standing up and moving around when he’s not tied down to his office chair, but apparently, office workers just like to sit! The Briefcase Seat design from artists Joan Korbes and Denis Oudendijk provides cubicle workers a place to sit after their long day of, um… sitting?

Made using a standard briefcase, with a set of nylon straps crafted onto its body, the Briefcase Seat can be slung over any sturdy railing to provide a semi-comfortable seating arrangement for the time being. Or, you know, they could always just stand up for once. Kind of a bummer that there’s no toilet integration.

Carry and Go BBQ: The briefcase for chefs

Don’t you feel bad for chefs? They don’t really have any cool work cases needed to bring to work with them. And have you seen those hats they wear? The Carry and Go BBQ is a grill with a handle. The grill can be toted around like a briefcase, and then folded out for a kill ‘em grill ‘em tool whenever it’s needed.

The portable BBQ bag comes with a shoulder strap and a carry bag for easy transportation and only costs around $34. It’s about time cooks had a briefcase equivalent. And now, I don’t have to worry about my damn charred meat craving. — Andrew Dobrow

Gotta Go Briefcase: If you wanna be number one, sometimes you’ve gotta go number two

Gotta_Go_Briefcase_Rodd_Miller___2007_v2.jpg_1.jpe

Here’s something for the up and coming businessman who finds himself with barely enough time to evacuate his bowels. The Gotta Go Briefcase by Rodd Miller is for the business person who will stop at nothing to be at the top…even to take a shit. Busy people know every minute counts, which is why the Gotta Go Briefcase comes with a built-in portable toilet.

The water proof (Phew!) briefcase, looks like any other elegant case, covered in Mahogany leather, even comes with a stainless steel bowl. An impressive amount of elegance for something that literally holds feces. Included is also a fold out privacy panel, in case you decide to use the toilet in the middle of Times Square, but don’t want to be too conspicuous, and a fold out toilet paper ring. To jump ahead in business sometimes you’ve got to do your business. The newspaper and air freshener aren’t included, but are highly recommended. — Andrew Dobrow
