Gear for the Homemaker/Children, Entertainer/Games & Toys
It’s time to go back to basics with the Pac-Man Arcade Gold Plug N Play.
When you need a break from the 14 button controller of your PlayStation 12 you can always fall back on the iconic games of Christmas past.
With Arcade Gold by Jakks Pacific, you get four Pac-Man games in one controller along with Dig-Dug, Galaxian, New Rally-X, and Bosconian; unfortunately there’s no Mrs. Pac-Man.
The included video and audio jacks plug directly into your TV, there’s nothing additional you need to purchase.
What is it about flying machines that’s so intriguing? The Blade® CX2 from E-Flight elevates the excitement with a beginner-friendly Heli that can be flown indoors; and the best part is that it won’t chop off your head!
The CX2 comes ready-to-fly, I just took it out of the box, put in the battery’s and began having fun. If you’ve never flown a RC Helicopter before, this is an excellent model to begin with; but you should still probably read the directions as the beefy remote can seem a little daunting. You might also want to pick up some extra blades. On the other hand, if you’re an experienced heli enthusiast, you’ll still have fun maneuvering the CX2 around your house.
JESUS ACTION FIGURE- one hell of a toy!

The most powerful action hero in the past 2 millennia! The Jesus Action Hero from Accoutrements has posable arms, magical healing capabilities, and shoots lasers from his eyes…well not really, but if we say it long enough people will believe it.
If your faith is really strong, you’ll want to splurge the extra 2 bucks for the Deluxe Jesus Action Hero; God that’s awesome!
With a price to die for, it’d be a miracle to keep these God forsaken things in stock. Each hard vinyl Jesus Action Figure stands 5″ (12.7 cm) tall, comes with 3 wishes, and wheels for walking on frozen water. Don’t think about whether it makes sense, just buy it because it’d be a sin not to. Remember, Jesus died so you could masturbate!
*If you do not buy the Jesus Action Figure you will burn in Hell for all of eternity. People who bought this also considered the David Koresh and Marshell Applewhite Action Figures.
Benders are durable plastic coated wire characters with magnetic feet and hands. You can bend your bender into any pose that suits your mood or imagination. What a fun way to ostentatiously exhibit your hobbies!
Benders from Hog Wild make a great gift for anyone passionate about a particular pastime. Find almost any sport or hobby including: Kayaking, Surfing Snowboarding, Racing, Cycling, Painting, Fishing, Golf, Soccer, Music, and many more. There’s even bender Action Hero’s, Animals, Bugs, Monsters, and Pets.
The Rock Climbing Bender shown to the right can be purchased for $16.95. The package includes one Bender, a rope, and two 12.5″ tin rock climbing walls that quickly connect before snapping into the base.
Once again, Jumpin Banana brings us the best of Paladone products with a new twist on the Hot Potato game we used to love as children. With random shocks of electricity this ball reminds me of the collar I bought for my girlfriend.
You might think this is dangerous toy because it looks like a super grenade designed to stop the terminator, but I assure you, it will not stop the terminator; I tried and now Sarah Conner is dead.
Looking for a new drinking game? When powered on with it’s special key, the shocking ball emits random bursts of electricity while it lights up. This stimulating sphere is great for all ages and makes a perfect bath time toy for those little brats you babysit.
* Actually, the Shocking Ball is not recommended for children under the age of 14 or individuals with animatronic hands.
Molded after the earths fastest insect, the Flytech™ Dragonfly by WowWee is the worlds first radio-controlled flying insect based on ornithopter flight. Wait, don’t insects have 3 pairs of legs? Oh, well. A real dragonfly can’t walk so why should this one.
With its unique flying action, dual-wing design, powerful tail-rotor, and 2 channel digital proportional remote control, this dragonfly flutters, soars, dive-bombs and glides while flapping its wings like a real insect. It took me about 20 tries to adequately handle the toggle controls that an 8 year old could probably master in about 15 seconds. Once I got the hang of the remote, it was quite a bit of fun seeing this unique creature flapping around the house.
I advise starting out in beginner mode with the tail ribbon until you get used to the controls. After some practice maybe move it up to the faster more tightly maneuverable function of expert. It’s also best to stay indoors as the wind can be a big factor with this extremely lightweight aeronautical marvel; that and Hawks have a habit of snatching these guys up.
Even kids that dislike scary sharks will like this one. The RC Cyborg Shark from Swim Ways is a remote controlled animatronic shark that swims with life-like movements via a fully controllable rear propeller, articulating tail, and vacillating pectoral fins. With the caudal fin propeller the shark can swim forwards or backwards while the swaying movement of the tail and the angle of the pectoral fins dictate direction and depth respectively. The remote control unit is fully waterproof, so no worries about brining it in the water with you. I’m a certified adult and I had fun with this thing; we went out drinking and the shark didn’t pay for a single round which got costly because he can drink like a fish. Although, I am down 2 G’s to him in billiards so I guess it’s more than even.
Got kids that like the creepy crawly’s? The RC Snake and RC Tarantula by Uncle Milton are two more toys to add to the collection. The RC Snake and Tarantula have small battery powered wheels that propel the toys forward across hard smooth surfaces via a short range radio controller. The eyes light up red when the units are turned on. Appropriate for bug collecting children ages 6-12.
The Flashflight by Nite Ize takes the glow in the dark Frisbee to a new level. With an on/off knob you’ll never have to stop the fun to hold the disc over a light bulb for 10 minutes just to capture another 5 seconds of glow time. The flying disc utilizes an ultra-bright LED fiber-optic array illuminating the entire disc. Sometimes pictures can be deceiving, so I was impressed to see that the disc illuminated as well (if not better) than the pictures portrayed. It’s easy to know quality when you see it, even with a simple plastic toy. I knew from merely holding the disc that the heavy duty material and innovative design would provide optimal balance and stability during flight; and as usual I was correct.
You know it’s time to update your old Frisbee, you might as well go with something ragingly awesome.
*Flashflight is the official flying disc of the Ninja.
