I hope this website accepts international credit cards because I am so ordering this right after I finish this post. It even has a working front red sensor and it talks! [Link]

Thanks Nibaq

Check out this guy’s Star Wars collection. [Link]

I love popping bubblewraps but I don’t know how fun an electronic toy version would be. If its cheap I would get it… [Link]

Someone is selling a brand new boxed Lion-O figure on eBay. Currently the bid is at $127 but there is another one with a buy it now price of $750! [Link]

While watching my partner at work try to balance himself while standing on a soccer ball, it reminded me of this toy I had back in the 80’s. It was a disc with a rubber ball stuck in the middle and the aim was to stand on it and jump around.

I spent a good chunk of time trying to find a picture of it but I couldn’t. I remember it being called Disk-O-Jump or something of that sort but I couldn’t find any pictures or traces of it. Then I remembered the Pogo Stick and figured I try searching for Pogo Ball and to my surprise I found it. I really don’t remember it being called a Pogo Ball though… [Link]

Remember I posted about the vintage Matchbox car that was selling for $300 on eBay? Well I checked the status of the auction today and it turns out the car ended up selling for $1,385! [Link]

Fans of the The Office, The IT Crowd and Office Space will like this. Buy an army of employees and have them work in their cubicles for 8 hours straight and if you are in a really bad mood force them to work overtime.

In this office, you’re the boss!

Each set costs around $13. [Link]

I have a passion for vintage toys and video games and recently I realized if I had a lot of extra cash lying around what I would love to start collecting is vintage Matchbox cars like the one pictured above and currently currently going for $330 on eBay!. Thats one expensive little toy car…

I was watching two items on eBay today, the first was a brand new boxed Popeye Game & Watch, the second was a brand new boxed Oil Panic Game & Watch. I was willing to pay max $200 which I figured was a pretty good chunk of change but I just got home and checked to find out that I lost both bids. Both items got sold for around $270 each!

update: Just lost another bid this time on a boxed Simon, but whats messed up is I lost by 50 cents only!

Does anyone remember the game Simon (pictured above)? I’ve asked a few people around the office and even showed them pictures but none of them seem to remember it. They sell for really cheap on eBay.

Fantasy World are selling a bunch of Transformer toys but the highlight has to be the large Optimus Prime action figure. They are selling it for around KD37 but on Amazon its being sold for $65. I’ve seen the same model but the limited edition Japanese version (metal) in Muthana Complex for KD80.

This one’s for the ladies. Hot Toys have created a 12inch (height) Michael Scofield collectible figure. For some reason though they made him look cross eyed. [Link]

This has to be the weirdest action figure ever.. [Link]

Since no one ever agrees to buy me toys for Christmas I end up having to buy them for myself. This year I bought myself a radio controlled car and a Lego Technic set.

The Optimus Prime 12inch action figure is back on sale on Amazon.com. I wanted it around 2 years ago but they stopped making them. Good to see its now available again. [Link]
