Twinkling Stars Light Up Skirt


You’re a star, baby! You might have stars in your eyes but now you can have them on your clothes too. This skirt just looks like a normal ombre skirt that you’d wear to work, school, shopping, or out and about but it’s so much more. It’s the Twinkling Stars Skirt and just flip the little switch and 250 tiny LED lights illuminate the skirt in constellation arrangements. Now you’re ready for a night out on the town- go dancing and do a dip atop the Big Dipper. Light up a room and light up your life.

The lights have 3 settings: on, twinkle, and off. The skirt consists of a see-through constellation layer, a white gauze layer, and the white liner. A battery pack (3 AA batteries, not included) tucks into a pocket in the elastic waistband. That’s enough power to keep the lights lit for 72 hours of use. We’d recommend maybe not wearing it (or anything) for 72 hours straight, just saying.

The battery packs, lights, and strands of wire for the lights are all removable for washing (the skirt, don’t try to wash the batteries, trust us). Awesome. And you can just wear it as a normal skirt without the battery pack if you don’t want to freak out the squares. But we know what your skirt can do…and we like it. Comes in a range of sizes for everyone.

World’s Smallest Electronic Baseball Game

electronic baseball
Remember playing that electronic baseball game as kid? The “ball” was a tiny light up dot that moved along the screen. The players were tiny light up dots. Everything was tiny lights. It was simple to learn, difficult to master. That’s actually the hallmark of a good game- all the classics have a short learning curve but are hard to become great at- think Pac-Man, Space Invaders, even modern games like Angry Birds. It was everything like baseball and nothing like baseball. Just tiny lights.

Back then handheld meant something the size of a small paperback novel (remember books? that’s a whole different post I guess) and a bunch of AAA batteries or a 9 volt or two. Now thanks to the wonders of technology they’ve miniaturized the classics. This electronic baseball game is a faithful reproduction of the original but shrunken down to keychain size. Like the original it’s made by Mattel. And yes, it really works.

VW Bus Drink Cooler

vw bus cooler
You will not find a cooler cooler than this VW Bus cooler. This ice chest is a scale model of the classic split front window Volkswagen Samba van complete with eight panoramic windows and a two toned paint job that evokes the 1960’s. But instead of transporting a bunch of smelly hippies to a concert, a bunch of smelly surfers to the beach, or a bunch of smelly kids to little league, this bus transports fresh smelling beer.
volkswagen bus cooler
It’s fresh smelling because the inside of this pressed steel bus has 3/4″ of insulation to keep up to two dozen 16-oz bottles cool on ice. A two foot long handle telescopes out so you can move the cooler along (or just pretend you are a tow truck). Unlike most coolers these days, this one actually has rubber tires for a smooth and quiet journey. A drain hole in the rear lets you keep it clean. Measures 36.5″ long by 17″ wide and 15.5″ tall.

Awesome Amphibious ATV Arrives Almost Anywhere

amphibious atv on water
When most ATV’s claim they can go over water, they’re usually talking about a shallow stream or perhaps a large puddle. This ATV really does go over the water because it basically becomes a jetski. The Amphibious ATV is the first high-speed all-terrain vehicle that can go up to 45mph on both land and sea.
amphibious atv on land
The ATV is powered by a 140hp BMW engine with rear wheel drive. Independent coil springs, 12″ diameter aluminum wheels, and 8.5″ of ground clearance let you ride over the toughest of terrain. Even water. When you enter water, engage the retraction system and boom goes the dynamite:

Up goes the wheels, rising above the waterline at an angle. The wheels take less than 5 seconds to rotate. Meanwhile, the engine power is transferred to a Gibbs jet drive for high speed water escapes (because that’s what this is made for, escaping, right?)
amphibious atv controls
The ATV can hold two riders weighing up to 350 lbs (total). It takes unleaded gas in it’s 15 gallon tank for 3 hours of water operation and 250 miles on land. Comes in choice of 5 colors too. Just $49,000, Mr. Bond.

Be a real life James Bond with the Submarine Sports Car Submarine Sports Car. This car really drives underwater! Got a body of water to cross? No problem, just drive this sports car into the water where it floats, then pull the lever to drop it into the depths of an underwater adventure.
submarine car on land Submarine Sports Car
On land, this vehicle has a 54kW battery powered electric motor, allowing it hit speeds of 75mph. While that’s not super fast, you can easily outrun any other car by simply heading for the nearest lake, ocean, river, or pond and taking an underwater shortcut. You can’t do that in a Tesla (yet). The batteries are good for 80 miles on land or 3 hours underwater per 4 hour charge. The steel chassis is the same one used in the Lotus Elise with a few modifications. The interior is impervious to fresh and salt water.
scuba car Submarine Sports Car
Rear propellers move the car forward while a pair of rotating water jets at the front provide steering and lift. You can drive underwater at 2 knots while up to 33′ deep. The best way to do it without killing yourself would be to use the two built-in scuba tanks and diving regulators which have enough air for up to an hour of underwater time (but it’s your choice, just hold your breath if you want to tough guy). You can buy this submarine car for a mere 2 million dollars.

Turn Real Bananas (and more!) into a Piano

banana piano Turn Real Bananas (and more!) into a Piano
Ever wanted to play a piano made out of bananas? Do you want to now that I’ve put the idea in your head? Of course you do. And you can with the More Than Just a Banana Piano. Smart readers will realize that not only can you use bananas but you can also use virtually any other object that conducts even a trickle of electricity: ketchup, finger paint, lemons, coins, plants, people, play dough, and so much more. Experiment with anything you want. How does it work? Simply:
fruit piano controller Turn Real Bananas (and more!) into a Piano
Just slip the alligator clip cables onto whatever objects you want to use for the piano keys. The wires run into the microcontroller circuit board which then hooks into your computer. Now just squeeze the banana (or whatever) and you’re playing a banana piano. No software needed, just plug and play. Even the circuit board is fun, for a circuit board. Be stoked:
banana piano board Turn Real Bananas (and more!) into a Piano
It works as a substitute keyboard so you can even use bananas (or anything) to function as arrow keys to play just about any online game. Minecraft with a banana? Sure, why not? This kit was designed by former MIT students and is great for junior inventors and amateur tinkerers. Also banana fans who know that there’s always money in the banana stand.
