Zero Gravity Wall Climber

Zero Gravity Wall ClimberPossibly the coolest radio-controlled gadget out, the Zero Gravity Wall Climber drives around on the floor like and normal R/C car, but then can drive right up your walls!  Using a special vacuum system, the Wall Climber drives around on your wall, then can go back down to the floor and drive there again!  It’s unbelievable!

Jack the Dog in the Box

Jack the Dog in the BoxThis fun Jack in the Box clone is much better than the original – not only does it play “Where oh where has my little dog gone,” but a cute little puppy pops up at the end!  It’s much less scary for little kids that way, and the song is a lot better!

Mini Remote Controlled Helicopter

Mini Remote Controlled HelicopterThis would be so much fun at the office – flying a miniature helicopter over the sea of cubicles, possibly racing other miniature helicopters…  Wow.  This is one must-have geek gifts.

Remote Control Tarantula

Remote Control TarantulaAs far as remote controlled toys go, the R/C Tarantula from Spilsbury is the creepiest.  It moves forward, left or right, and each of its legs moves independently.  I’m sure you could really freak someone out with this thing!

Giga Balls

Giga BallsI’m not sure what I like best about the strangely-named Giga Balls, but one thing is for sure – I would have loved to have one of these as a kid.  Though it’s likely I wouldn’t have survived very long.  For better or worse, it only holds up to 150 pounds of victim kid, so I’m out of luck.

I want an e-horse for Christmas!

My Furreal Friends PonyApparently one of the hot new gifts for Christmas this year is the new My FurReal Friends Pony from Mattel. Standing three feet tall, Butterscotch (Yes, that’s it’s name!) will make your little princess almost forget that you didn’t get her a real pony. It swishes it’s tail, nuzzles, and can even be sat up by small-boned little girls. Retailing for $299, it unfortunately doesn’t cost that much less than the real thing. Link (via GiftBee)
