Win Christmas This Year With This Stormtrooper Sled

__1

It’s not even Thanksgiving yet, but experts are already arguing over what will be the hottest toys of the holiday season. Many have their money on the remote-controlled BB-8 that can be controlled with a smartphone. All experts agree that anything Star Wars is a pretty safe bet when it comes to the most popular toys of the season. That being said, if I was a kid, I’d be all about this amazing Star Wars sled for sale on Bonanza.com. It not only looks cool, but it can also be controlled with handlebars, making it a lot easier to operate than classic sleds. The fact that it’s only $100 also makes it a much more practical toy than many of the other options out there.

Heck, I only wish it had a higher carrying capacity than 150 pounds so I could use it even now as an adult. If I could just lose a few dozen pounds I’d be good to go.

My Little Cephalopod

My Little Ponies might be fun, but for some, the very notion of them being ponies is just too juvenile and cutesie. For that contingent, My Little Cephalopod by DeviantArt user Mimblex is a welcome alternative with all the allure and amazement a knitted squid can offer.

Get Your Own Action Figure

The Japanese company Clone Factory doesn’t need your DNA to make an eerily close copy of you -just a few photographs should suffice. While the Neatoshop sells bobbleheads based on your pics, they aren’t nearly as creepy as these action figures because they manage to stay on the safe side of the uncanny valley. As a bonus, the Neatorama bobbleheads never cost more than $238, but the clone factory charges around $1,700 for your new toy.
