The Death Star may have been a dark and evil thing back in its time, but now it’s just so pretty. Instead of blowing up planets, this Death Star makes the stars shine brightly even while you’re still in your house. You don’t even need to go outside anymore, you can just sit inside with this Star Wars Death Star Planetarium and stare up at the stars.
This planetarium would also work as a night light for little kids who need comforted in the dark by something bright and shiny. Of course this isn’t advised for kids under 3 years of age due to choking hazards. To keep it powered it requires 3 AA batteries, that are obviously not included. Once this comes out in August you’ll be able to purchase one of these for $29.99. Of course if you’re feeling impatient you can go ahead and pre-order one now.

It has been 4 years since the TV B-Gone was released to irritate the heck out of salesmen and in one instance, wreck havoc at CES a couple of years back. Well, the nifty little device has just turned pro, coming in the form of the TV B-Gone Pro where it will cost you $49.99 each. This super high powered remote is capable of turning just about any TV on or off regardless of brand within a 110 meter radius, featuring more emitters than its less pro sibling. It features a touch activated switch that relays your intent to the targeted TV within seconds, and even boasts an instant reactivation feature that lets you turn off many TVs in quick succession, perfect for a prank at a large electronics store with your friend to see who can turn off the most TVs within the shortest time possible.
The Sega Dreamcast was the best console ever to experience an early demise, and for many strange reasons at that even though it has many technologically advanced features among the crop of other consoles at that time. Well, with the craze of turning stuff into a soap form factor going around these days, why are we not surprised to see a Dreamcast controller that comes in the form of a soap, complete with colorful buttons and an analog stick? It tips the scales at 11 ounces, and was made with great quality glycerin soap. Of course, this is the perfect thing to scrub your sweaty palms down with after an intense gaming session if you’re a true blue gamer, but otherwise it might end up as a $19 soap that is too beautiful to use.
