This car-shaped USB optical mouse is fun to have, which lets you kill some times by moving the little car to and fro on your work desk, when you’re little bored with your computer and work. The lights of the car-shaped mouse are also perfect to provide you little shine while you’re mousing in a dimmer environment.

The mouse itself offers 1,000 dpi resolution, comes with plug and play support, and is ergonomically designed with a scroll wheel and two buttons. Unfortunately, it isn’t a wireless mouse, the USB cable restricts the car to take off from its slow lane.

You can add some humor to your next golf game by letting your golf partner hit the RC golf ball, and you remotely control the ball to fly in an opposite direction of his swing. This will leave him scratching his head what has actually happened to his swing.

The remote control of the RC golf ball has a joystick which allows you to easily direct the ball within the 100 feet range. The golf ball can operate in three different selectable frequencies. If you have two of these, you can race them at a time by having each to run their own frequency.

The RC golf ball needs a battery to run. It comes with a rechargeable 1.2V battery. You also need a 9V battery and 1.5 AA batteries (not included) for the remote control to work. Please note that this RC gold ball is not meant for kids under 3 years. Be sure not to buy it as gift for the kids.

The construction of the puzzle cube seems to have cost a whopping $10,000. The idea came from the two Italy-based designers Toshi Satoji and Katsuya Masaki. Basically, dissembling the puzzle cube does not need you to possess the knowledge of Rocket science. You just need to pull out each component or brick of the puzzle cube, much like what you do with a LEGO creation.

After all the hard work of dissembling the puzzle cube, now you get the 16GB USB memory stick. But this sounds really absurd by having the user to dissemble the puzzle in order to reach the USB flash drive that stores the data.

These robots do not need to be always exposed to the sun. When sunlight is not sufficient, you can also juice the robots up by using a bulb with minimum brightness of 50 watt. The 6-in-1 robotic kit contains 25 parts and no screws. I believe it’ll take you some times to build each robot. But the product page insists that it needs only a minute to turn it into a robotic dog or a boat.

The entire set costs only $21 USD, which is what you need or for your kids to fulfill the dream of becoming a robot scientist.

The Transformer mouse is able to transform from a mouse into a robotic dinosaur as pictured above. It surely lets you kill some time, which you can turn it into a robotic dinosaur, called the Trypticon to have some fun while you’re bored. This transforming mouse is unsuitable for those who are under 16. As it may contain sharp points, small parts that are choking hazards. The Transformer mouse is available on BigBadToyStore for a price of $60 (Pre-order).

The second transforming gadget is able to transform from a robot into a little tiny laptop that has a 4-port USB hub at its base. The robot can store a mini cassette tape (the one used on old answering machines) on its chest but the product page has no further information if it can play the cassette. Find out more on Amiami. The price tag of 3,980 Yen (about $42 USD) sounds to cheap to be true.

Update: Apparently, it’s not a functioning laptop/netbook, it’s just a fake one. Look at how it’s transformed into a robot, having the screen of the laptop broken into pieces distributed across the “wings” of the robot. So, it could be only functioning as a USB hub or maybe as a recorder since it can hold the mini cassette tape.

An artist on Flickr has created beautiful vinyl dolls inspired by Alex character in the “A Clockwork Orange”. These dolls seem to have got some anime make-over instead of looking exactly like the original character.

But anyway, they do have similarity in look to the original Alex character in A Clockwork Orange. These dolls are cute and interesting, especially with the eyes painted in blue, showing them likely to have been tailor-made to suit the Japanese taste.
