1. Megazooka
A giant air gun. Some would say, “Now Rob, how can air be awesome?” I’ll tell you how! By using this gun, you could single handedly shut down any company for an afternoon. Just wait for the boss to go to the bathroom or lunch, go in there with that gun and start shooting air at all their paperwork. Do the same to the administrative assistants. When they come back and see a tornado has ripped through their office and they can’t find any of their work orders, guess who’s going home for the afternoon? Or, if caught, possibly the rest of your life!
Simply awesome!
2. USB Laser Guided Missile
Launcher – You can get multiple missile launchers and control them all with a single laser. YOU CAN HAVE FRIKKIN LASER BEAMS ATTACHED TO YOUR CUBICLE! What’s not cool about that? Now you can have an all points air strike in any surrounding cubicle, table, or hallway. Best room security ever.
3. Halo 3 Laser Pursuit Plasma Weapons
If you love Halo, there’s no excuse to not want one of these. Replicas of the Covenant weapons, they are just as pretty as they are cool. A must-have for a Halo fan. Did I mention it’s a laser-tag game?
4. Airsoft Assault Rifle with Laser Sight
Who hasn’t watched an episode of 24 or watched an action movie and wished that they had an M4 with a laser site? This thing just looks awesome, and even if you don’t want to play with it, it’s very suitable to be mounted on your wall. They also shoot pellets, so if that pesky cat next door tries to sleep under your car again, this will show it who’s boss.
5. Lifesize Office Warrior Weapons
What could scare you, your friends, your professors, or your boss more than running at them with a full size shield, axe, and sword screaming bloody murder? You’ll look like something out of the Viking raids and you’ll make whoever is on the other end of it think the same. A great way to freak out your friends.
6. Sonic Grenade
You heard me. A grenade of sound. Pretty awesome, huh? Just wait until you have one thrown in the same room as you. An ingenious device, the sonic grenade has a built in timer. Pull the pin and you’ve got three seconds to get it wherever you want before it starts making your ears bleed from the high pitched scream inside of it. How do you turn it off, you ask? Putting the pin back in will turn the grenade off, but if you don’t have the pin, you’re out of luck. A horrific thing to have happen to you, and a funny thing to have happen to someone else. Enjoy your sleep, for this will certainly end it!
7. The Sonic Boom Alarm Clock
Are you a heavy sleeper? Not anymore. This puppy can put out 113 decibels of sound (a decibel reading of 120 can make you permanently deaf ) and will shake your bed until you shut it off. The idea is that the louder it goes, the more vibrations in your mattress, and the faster you’ll get up. A great way to get to class on time.
8. Bluetooth Laser Virtual Keyboard
Sick of your keyboard taking up all your desk space? This keyboard is made out of lasers, so you’ll never have to worry about it again. The Bluetooth device allows connectivity to your computer and all you have to do is press on your desk where the keys are. You’ll be spacesaving in no time!
9. The Thinkgeek Annoy-a-Tron
A simple device that emits a beep every 6 minutes or so. The idea is you buy one and put it under something (for example, putting it inside of a couch cushion or underneath a mattress) and it will beep every 6 minutes until the battery dies. Thankfully (or regrettably, depending on which side of this you’re on), the device uses almost no battery life, so it could last for years (possibly life). Happy hunting to anyone who hears this thing in their house. One user bought this and put it in his roommate’s bedroom. After about a month, the roommate became enraged and started ripping his bed frame apart to try and find it. Luckily, he taped the entire incident and I believe put it on Youtube. Yay internet (thank you Al Gore).
10. Ninja Vs. Pirate Attack
What more needs to be said? Ninjas and Pirates beating each other up. Or rather, you shooting little ninjas or pirates at your buddy while they shoot the opposite at you. Who will win? There can only be one.
