Stuffed Plush Twitter Bird
Editor’s Note: This design seems to bear a striking resemblance to Iconfactory’s official Twitterrific mascot, Ollie. Credit needs to be given where credit is due. We strongly suggest you check out the official Iconfactory store to purchase official Ollie products. If all of you social media gurus and marketing consultants are having trouble sleeping at night, too worried about your mediocre number of followers to fall into a deep sleep (by the way, if you have 100,000 followers and 99,000...

World of Warcraft Plushies Make Wind Riders Look Cuddly
Now, cuddly isn’t the term I’d usually use to describe the not-so-tame looking wind riders, but these World of Warcraft plushies do a decent job at making me want to cuddle up with one of those monstrosities. The Gryphon Hatchling and Wind Rider Cub plush pets are currently on sale for only the low, low price of $24.99. But wait! There’s more. Well, no, there’s not really more. But hello? WoW plushies! I have to confess. I had given up World... Continue reading
Hello Kitty’s Guts Make an Appearance
When we think Hello Kitty, we think about the adorable piece of shit gadgets they produce and the meaningless of the entire damn brand. That’s right Hello Kitty, we’re hatin’. But this one is actually sort of neat. This Hello Kitty toy designed by Dr Romanelli gives us the rare inside look. This is the first time we’ve gotten to dissect a Hello Kitty doll and apparently a bunch of their organs have eyes, which is actually pretty creepy. Link... Continue reading
USB Crunching Elmo: Because Elmo is Fat
I hate to dis on the red dude, but let’s be honest, Elmo has always carried a little extra weight. That’s what makes him so ticklish and cuddly. Well it seems that Elmo is sick of the fat jokes. The USB Crunching Elmo allows you to plug Sesame Street’s favorite little fat boy into your USB port so Elmo can get his workout. I see a future Christmas bestseller in the making. To be honest, I thought this was something... Continue reading
Slinky Attempts to Hide As A Light Fixture

The Slinky Light is pretty much a normal slinky, attached end to end, with an upside... Continue reading
World’s Largest Newton’s Cradle Has Enough Balls to Rival Chuck Norris
Newton’s Cradle, if you didn’t already know, is an awesome perpetual motion toy made using a series of identical balls suspended from a frame. You might have seen them at your local psychiatrist’s office or in many offices of CEOs. Geek Group was on a mission to create the world’s largest Newton’s Cradle. How big, exactly, was the finished product? The cradle was made with bowling balls, so that’s a pair of 20 foot cables holding the 15 pound bowling... Continue reading

My Little Zombie Pony Will Eat Your Brain and Devour Your Soul
My Little Zombie Pony uses her saccharine cutesy-ness to distract you just long enough for you not to realize she is feasting on your brain. BRAAAAINNNNS! Or is it bray-ns? If Crystal’s Pony Tale ever merged with Resident Evil, it would look something like this.
Toys That Make No Sense: Mickey Mouse Tron Toy
OK, I know that Disney released the original Tron film in 1982. And I get that Mickey Mouse is the de facto symbol of the company. But other than that, what the fuck does Mickey and Tron have in common? Link [via]
Tattoo Barbie Gets a Tramp Stamp
Oh, man. The transformation is complete. Barbie is now officially inked. The oldest teenager in the world (can you say “mid-life crisis?”) is now offered a new world of tattoos, thanks to Mattell’s new “Totally Tattoos” line of no-mess decals. No, I am not making this up. Mattell offers a range of 40 tats to disfigure Barbie’s beautiful clear skin, including a strategically designed tramp stamp which declares her love for Ken. Didn’t they break up or divorce or something?... Continue reading
