CanDroid

candroidEveryone knows that the path to world domination begins with building a droid. At least we hope everybody realizes that. So get started today with the CanDroid, which includes seventeen pre-assembled and interchangeable parts allowing you to create and morph this mechanical desktop marvel. Candroid’s hinged jaw opens and closes to devour loose change, nuts, bolts or anything else that looks appealing.
Features:

  • Flex & Pose: Articulated ball joints give CanDroid full mobility.
  • Parts Pack in Head: Disassembled parts fit and travel inside his tin box head.
  • Pinch and Hold: Spring loaded pinchers grab thin or thick objects
  • Clings & Climbs: Powerful foot magnets allow CanDroid to scale sheer metal walls/surfaces like fridges or filing cabinets.
  • Allen wrench included for assembly and for adjusting tension to ‘lock’ CanDroid into a certain pose if desired. When assembled Candroid will stand 8 inches high. When not helping you achieve World Domination, CanDroid enjoys eating EISA cards, AOL Media, and any PCs still using windows95.

    Japanese Toy: Furry Tamagotchis from Takara

    takara furry toyAnd now, as they say, for something completely different. Good old Takara has come up with what we guarantee will be the big hit toy of 2005: the Kigumi virtual pet. No mere Tamagotchi, the Kigumi comes in several different costumes (work with us on this please) and can be yours for ¥2,500. Unusually, it’s operated with a stylus and looks something like a mini PDA dressed up in a furry suit. As for what it actually does, well, it plays games, attaches to bags (uh-huh), reacts to a ringing cellphone, and so on. Believe us�if you’re 10 years old, that lot sounds like paradise.
