The problem with mobile cameras is obvious, you either have to mount these on to a bike frame, a car dashboard, or somewhere in view of what you want to video – yourself in action. Well, a truly effective, hands-free camera for fun action video taking should be easy to use, a video camera that won’t get in the way, ...
Believe it or not, yes, we have given some thought to just how zoological research should proceed in the event that someone discovers a real-life unicorn living in the wild. This Unicorn Poop Stuffed Scarf encapsulates so very many of our questions. Since Doodle the Unicorn bears a striking, almost suspicious ...
It would seem that Pokémon Go developer Niantic hasn't exactly turned a deaf ear to snarky jokes about their global-phenomenon mobile AR game's players being oblivious to their surroundings while out and about hunting. As a matter of fact, they're all for lending a helping hand. Credit where it's due: not every ...
Few signs remind us quite as surely as the trotting-out of ironic "ugly" sweaters that cooling temperatures bring with them the joy of the holiday season. Of course, this not even being November yet, we would normally bludgeon the third-grade math out of Santa Claus if it would back him and birthday-boy Jesus off a ...
Would you really doubt that BB-8 knows just how adorably charming he is? More importantly, why wouldn't he share our hunch that his cute rolling round body could somehow make the galaxy's most perfect round breakfast entree even more pleasing? Oh, ThinkGeek. If you spend much longer camped out in our heads than it ...
If short videos on the Internet have taught us anything, it's this: nature has a disconcerting knack for blending the adorable with the threatening, terrifying, and deadly. Don't believe us? Assemble a random sample of strangers and ask them to take a piece of candy from this Star Wars Ewok Candy Bowl and Holder. ...
Want to blend in at your next geek convention? Deadpool. Keep calm and be Deadpool. Yes, we're aware that "be Deadpool" would imply exuding the exact opposite of "calm." In this instance, calm is somewhat relative. Here, it would mean, "As long as you're dressed like the other 10,000 attendees cosplaying the Merc ...
Star Wars – the iconic film that has infected billions with the imagination of traveling among the stars as either a Jedi Knight, or as a Sith Lord. While light sabers are hard to come by, many fans happily settle for being a Stormtrooper instead, especially during costume parties and holidays. This special Black ...
When buying lights for the home or office, it can be a tricky decision-making process because whatever light you choose will be with you for a while. Having a light that can adapt physically to your needs – a light that can affect the mood of a room, has been a wish come true, with the Mood Light. Lighting is ...
“You may have seen a housefly, maybe even a superfly, but I bet you ain’t never seen a donkyfly!” - Donkey (Movie Shrek), and you probably never seen an eggfly, either? This egg not only flys, it soars with impressive stability due to its egg shape. It’s uniquely engineered design allows this flying drone to easily ...
It's here. Thank Kirkman Almighty, the homestretch toward the seventh season of AMC's "The Walking Dead" is finally here and we're as jubilant as Steve Martin with a brand-new phonebook. We're so excited, we can scarcely resist burying barbed wire-wrapped baseball bats in every smiling face we meet. Finally, some ...
Finally, somebody else understands the one burning question we have never answered: if people had wings, wouldn't they make for brilliantly convenient concealed storage? Thank you, Volha Kotova. Yes. The answer is, yes, they certainly would. The Belarussian artist clearly saw us coming when she fashioned these ...
Every so often, an item throws us completely off our expectations. We genuinely thought we had seen every piece of superb licensed Star Wars merchandise and memorabilia that could make us furiously launch our cash at our screens at escape velocity. A Millennium Falcon drone. Some of the finest collectible figures ...
Backyard airspace - the Final Frontier. These are the voyages of the Quadcopter Enterprise. Our seven-minute* radio-controlled mission: to impress new Trekkie friends, to seek out new birds and squirrels to harass, to boldly go where lots of drones have gone before, but in a much cooler fashion. You'll never own ...
Cubicle slaves don't have the market cornered on getting antsy while chained to a desk nine hours a day, five days a week. A good number of us work at home, and we have our moments during the day when an epileptic death row inmate watching "Pokémon" from the comfort of an electric chair has an easier time sitting ...
It’s true, there is nothing as fiercely fought over, to gain the attention of computer gamers, than the PC mouse. However, there is one computer accessory that desperately needs an upgrade of design, and that is the humble computer keyboard. If you think about it, the keyboard bears the brunt of use when people ...
Sony may have engendered some recently notable ill-will by allegedly shutting down Bethesda's plans to introduce PlayStation 4 mod support for "Fallout 4" and tanking some opportunistic smack-talk from Microsoft in the aftermath, but we would understand if nobody is exactly sweating bullets yet. After a brief ...
Watching the Schmeckenbecker Kinetic Contraptions Kit is nearly as amusing as saying its name aloud. The onomatopoeic name may suggest this is some practical working replica of an obscure contraption culled from a Dr. Seuss story, but this six-foot-tall dynamic tower actually received an Oppenheim Toy of the Year ...
We've always been impressed by the way radio-controlled cars mount even the very toughest terrain. It's a wonder, decades removed from our Tyco-fueled childhoods, that full-sized vehicles lack the suspension, traction, and maneuverability to scale steep, jagged rocks as swiftly and under-control as our favorite RC ...
Every well-read nerd should recognize by now that "Star Trek" creator Gene Roddenberry was well ahead of his time it came to imagining the bold places science and technology could boldly go where no man had gone before. This November, get read to break the ground you've been dying to explore since you first saw "Star ...
We would say with about 99% certainty that toyetic interests were far from the first concerns on George Lucas's mind in 1977 when he was preparing for what we know today as "Star Wars: A New Hope" to hit theaters. Yes, we reserve that last 1% out of respect for those of us who still can't sanction the buffoonery of ...
Ah, Spirit Halloween. You are to Halloween what Cadbury is to Easter and Starbucks is to suburban white people after Labor Day. Our yearly spooky decorating routine was starting to feel like it had lost some steam until we discovered the seasonal novelty, decoration and costume brand's Zombie Arm Pathway Markers. ...
The world has been taken over by zombie fever, its true, the zombie marketing machine can sell almost anything, even lawn gnomes. The lawn gnome ornament industry has never been a major one, until Mini Zombies Gnomes came to town. Now, the lawn ‘zombie’ gnome industry is infecting everyone. If you like all things ...
To your average a civilian, a ghost is a ghost. If your stock in trade happens to entail ridding the living of paranormal nuisances one entity at a time, you can't afford to be so blasé. For the seasoned experts who know their Class-5 free roaming vapors from their giant sloars, the Official Ghostbusters Edition of ...
The BB-8 Droid is the newest most likeable robot in the Star Wars universe, and like a ‘real’ Jedi, you can now control the little droid with this Force Band. And, as with all official Star Wars merchandise, the control wrist band looks like the real deal. For most fans of the force, this might be as good as it ...
Computers belonging to gamers are always in a state of upgrade because game companies take advantage of ever increasingly complex software programing that demand more from computers. Because of this, ‘real’ gamers are always upgrading their rigs, in anticipation of the next new game with better graphics. However, ...
Nerds rarely catch an even break. In the 80s, your average socially awkward Dungeons & Dragons was considered a likely Satanist by your average suburban soccer mom educated in RPGs by a Chick tract. Even before that, having some nerdy proclivities would at least earn someone the branding of a ...
Remember earlier this year, when we introduced you to Funko's first set of POP! Party String Lights celebrating the 75th anniversary of Captain America joining the Marvel universe? As it turns out, there's a whole other kind of superhero that Funko is equally keen on honoring. There isn't a whole lot that's ...
Every time we watch "Star Trek: The Next Generation," we like to think Geordi La Forge's visor gives him enough awareness of his environment to not set down a frosty beverage atop the Enterprise's LCARS (Library Computer Access/Retrieval System) operating system display. With that in mind, we would like to ...
Is there life out there in the universe, besides here on earth? Most people believe there is, however, it might not be like anything most people might expect, or, life could be very similar to earth based life forms, scientists just don’t know, but they want too. Well, researchers working with the SETI program are ...
Adult comic book aficionados - not to be confused with aficionados of "adult" comic books, though there's certainly overlap - suffer under an unfortunate, albeit not entirely baseless stereotype of sorely lacking a certain fashionable panache. Curiously enough, comicbook heroes, villains, and their alter egos rarely ...
Well. How very pants-wettingly adorable. These hyper-realistically detailed animal masks have been all the rage for over a year. For the life of us, we can't work out a theory as to why, except for a combination of the emotional crippling of children enjoying a bit of a moment and someone's sworn mission to reshape ...
Since there have been Pokemon, there have been artists who have dared to imagine a world wherein humankind existed side-by-side with real pocket-sized monsters. Consequently, for as long as fan-art has crossed that Rubicon into anime-made-flesh, the ultimate creations have spanned from soul-crushingly adorable ...
The NFL is more than just a sports organization. In fact, it is much more than just a sport – football. Dedicated fans cherish their favorite NFL teams and their players because these are a source of great pride and motivation. If you are a huge fan of the NFL, and you want your neighbors to know what team you ...
Marvel and Harley-Davidson are bringing some esteemed special guests with them to Oz Comic-Con in Sydney, Australia the weekend of Sept. 10-11.

What happens when you meld a 12oz. can of beer with a pewter stein? You get a Das Can-in-Stein – an innovative, hybrid drinking mug that not only looks awesome, but it is guaranteed to quench your thirst, in style. If you are a drink loving person who appreciates well-wishing toasts on special occasions, then this ...
Screw big wet bags of every maker of cotton swabs. Yeah, we said it. Your "DON'T INSERT DIRECTLY INTO EARS" warning is a cruel crock of bullshit. Hey, want to know exactly when we decided to stick them directly into our ears? The instant you told us not to do that. Seriously, what did you think we would do as soon ...
"The Tick" creator Ben Edlund has been a busy fellow lately, but not so much so that he brushed off a chance to fill Yahoo TV in on what had to change in order to ready the big blue hero for his return to live-action comedy with a brand-new Amazon pilot arriving this month. Nerds! Wait! Stop. Just put some pins in ...
Do not throw this ceramic Poké Ball mug at small animals. Two reasons. One, $14.99 per shattered mug adds up about as quickly as you'd expect. More than likely, that's probably much faster than we anticipated. Two, beaning cats between the eyes didn't work out at all the way the animated adventures of Ash Ketchum ...
Buy a couple six-packs of your favorite microbrew, unsheathe this Sonic Screwdriver Bottle Opener, and down a bottle of suds for every Doctor from Hartnell to Capaldi. Face it, you have to keep yourself occupied somehow between now and the tenth-season premiere of "Doctor Who" in 2017. No way the Eleventh Doctor ...
From Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad to Jacob and Evie Frye, there's but one achievement more impressive to us than the sheer stealthy skill the Order of Assassins has honed over centuries of keeping the rival Templars from absolute global dominance, one 100-foot-plus suicidal swan-dive at a time: inconspicuously toting about an ...
The future of racing is here, and now, where humans are no longer the most capable drivers, computers are. Daniel Simon, a vehicle concept artist and creator of many well-known futurist vehicle designs, such as seen in movies like ‘Tron’, has designed a very special futuristic vehicle, the autonomous race car. ...
In Loving Memory Of Kenny Baker, The R2-D2 Popcorn Maker Pays Tribute With Air-Popped Snacks We would doubly cherish this R2-D2 Popcorn Maker, if only our praise for it didn't feel in part like a loving honorarium to an icon of our formative geeky memories - even if we rarely ever saw his face prior to the past ...
Certain potential realities of life aboard the TARDIS disturb us. First and foremost, pizza. Let's just assume that delivery probably won't be an option. Most restaurants will only delivery to an actual address, be it a residence, business, dormitory, or even a bar. A vehicle, though? A street corner? An ...
There's a good reason it won't necessarily matter to us one whit that would-be extraterrestrial invaders would dismiss us as a primitive backwater planet that scarcely warrants their efforts: you might say we really "get" the commonalities of organic life across the cosmos. For instance, a question for our space ...
Sure, you could say we're fans of the acclaimed Doodle Duvet Cover. That's certainly one way to describe us. You could also do our ambitions justice and note that we "might" have ordered a gross of these massive 200-thread-count Turkish cotton bed coverings, drawn up plans to stitch them together side-by-side, and ...
What can we say? We've gotta have our Pops. Sad, but true. Our crippling addition to breakfast cereal took root in the early 90's and has barely relinquished its grip since. It saps our financial resources so persistently, we can barely keep up with our parallel compulsion to collect every brand-new Funko POP! ...
Is it already time for the annual gadgetry battle between Apple and Samsung? Well, paint us silver and call us a herd of idiots cosplaying as Macbooks. It is indeed that time once more. With buzz already mounting rapidly for the iPhone 7's alleged September 16, 2016 release leaked recently by Bloomberg, Samsung has ...
Ah, Academia. You'll never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy. The cunning student of any age trusts nothing less than the Mandalorian armor of Boba Fett to keep their stuff both secure and easily at hand. We choose to hope that a laptop, tablet, and phone are the most advanced tech bounty hunters of ...
