The Children’s Inflatable 2 MPH Speedboat – Powered Boating For Kids!

Ah, life on the ocean wave! Salt-scented air breezing through your widely stretched nostrils like sea water funneling through a frenzied shark gill as you broadly bestride your pitching vessel, rolling expertly with the swell, sails slapping in a brisk nor’wester, flying foam flecking the gunwale! What daring adventures lie beyond the bouncing horizon?! Aye lad, the promise of beaches never scarred by human foot! Ripe, sweet, unidentifiable fruits of such a heft they take two strong men to carry! And the women, lad, oh, the women! Flame-haired sirens of the night with lips like…

Children’s Inflatable 2 MPH Speedboat

“Daddy? Do you mean Mommy?”

Did I say all that out loud? “Yes son, I was talking about your mother. And we’ll be having hot dogs as soon as I can get this apparently incombustible charcoal to light.” I give the mound another liberal douse with lighter fluid. I look on proudly as my boy steers his Children’s Inflatable 2 MPH Speedboat around the pool with an inquisitive hand. He’s picking it up quickly.

Humankind was meant to be on the water. We spread around the planet by boat, so the first chance I got I bought one of these for my children. Get ‘em started young learning the ins and outs of watercraft, is my motto. And they don’t come much safer than this.

Safety First

The Outboard electric motor drives a safely-shrouded propeller with no exposed blades to injure errant youthful limbs. It can be turned 360° enabling reverse movement to get out of sticky combat situations, such as incoming water balloons or  surprise water pistol attacks. (more…)

The Genuine Lost In Space B-9 Robot – For The True Sci-fi Collector!

Almost anyone who grew up in the days of the classic black and white television shows can remember the music and excitement of the Lost in Space television show. Perhaps the best part of the entire show was the B-9 Environmental Control Robot.

This tall, mechanized robot added a bit of comic relief to the show. It was also the sidekick to the Will Robinson character. Perhaps the most memorable line uttered by the B-9 robot was its alarm. “Danger Will Robinson, Danger!” This was typically followed by a great deal of arm waving and spinning.

Now you can own a piece of history. The genuine Lost in Space B-9 robot is the greatest treasure available for collectors of this genre. Can you imagine anything more perfect than a six and one half foot tall robot ready to do your bidding? This amazing piece of animatronics is remote controlled allowing you to do everything from turning its torso left and right to activating its soil sampler.

Down To The Smallest Detail

Great pains have been taken to reproduce as much of the detail as possible. The makers even used the original molds which were pulled from the archives. This replica of the B-9 robot is no cheap plastic knockoff. It is literally made from steel, acrylic, aluminum and fiberglass. Imagine your friends’ amazement when they see a genuine looking B-9 rolling around with its lights flashing. (more…)

Brian the Brain – A Great Roommate With Attitude!

Has your son or daughter told you they would love to have a roommate? Do they cringe at the thought of moving little brother or sister into the room with them? If so then Brian the Brain may be exactly what they have been looking for.

Can you picture a transparent talking brain with eyes in a fishbowl? While it may sound weird and somewhat gross to us kids love Brian the Brain. He is perhaps one of the greatest animatronic toys of our age. Brian has even been the winner of Dr. Toy’s 100 Best Products awards. This is in no way a small feat considering how many toys were considered.

Brian the Brain can respond to your child’s voice. As such he is programmed to recognize their voice and will respond accordingly. Brian will even begin to learn facts about your child and act accordingly. A great example would be Brian reminding your son or daughter of something like their ball game or dance recital.

Brian the Brain comes with a digital clock, but he also has a calendar and even a jack for an Mp3 player. This brain is more than just a simple piece of technology. He has a great personality as well. By asking your child what his or her likes and dislikes are Brian can then make their conversations a great deal more personal. He can even tell jokes that will leave your kids rolling with laughter. (more…)

The Telekinetic Obstacle Course – True Mind Over Matter!

Have you ever had dreams about being able to levitate objects just by using your brain? Maybe you have thought about the true meaning of mind over manner. What would you say if you found out that it is now possible to move an object just by concentrating?

The Telekinetic Obstacle Course

The Telekinetic Obstacle Course

This is the concept behind the telekinetic obstacle course. Made by Mattel, this course is based upon the principle of using your brain waves to power a fan. While it is not a true telekinetic feat, the harder you concentrate on the obstacle course the faster the fan will spin.

The concept behind the game is relatively simple. The fan is powered by the level of activity in your brain waves. As the ball floats up or down you will then turn a knob which turns the game board. You must synch the power of the fan with the movement of the board in order to keep the ball moving through the telekinetic obstacle course.

The telekinetic theory says that it is possible to move objects just by using the power of your brain. This obstacle course does just that, but in an offhanded manner. Instead of moving the ball as you might expect you simply power (or move) the fan. (more…)

The Arcade Legends Full Size 125 Game System – The Excitement Of The Arcade Comes Home

Many great childhood and teen memories have been built around the great videogames of the past. How many of us can say we didn’t spend hours sitting around the house playing games like Centipede or Asteroids?

Even when we began to hang out at the arcades we continued to play these classics and new ones like Street Fighter II and Ghosts ‘n Goblins. If you had all the quarters you pumped into those machines over the years do you think you might be a bit well off?

The great thing now is that you can have all the arcade legends at home. How does a full sized 125 game system sound to you? Many of the available upright consoles only come in at a measly 70% size. This console, chock full of some of the gaming all time greats, is actually full size.

This means it has the whole feel of the classic console games you remember faithful down to the color and lights. Even better, this full size console is made by none other than Chicago Gaming Company. This is no small deal as they are the makers for industry names such as Konami and Williams. (more…)
