How many games or toys these days require batteries or some sort of juice to make it fun and addictive? Whatever happened to using our imagination? Well, the Cuponk toy certainly harks back to older days when batteries were expensive, and yet does not skimp on the fun factor. Why do we say so? Well, the whole idea is to make sure your ball bounces straight into the Cuponk cup, only to have it illuminated and emit a cacophony of bleeps. Sounds easy at first, but not after you factor in 30 trick cards which lets you know the kind of shot you must perform, taking everyday places as a venue for a game of Cuponk. You can choose from El Campeon, Let it R.I.P and Gorillanator sets at £14.99 each.

I know what you’re thinking, it’s just another silly steampunk USB drive. That is unless you’re like me, then you’re just excited to see a different steampunk USB drive. Well if you do think it’s just another of a long series you’d be slightly incorrect, you see this one is different. It’s waterproof! Any drive that looks this good and allows for you to drop it in a pool of water on occasion is worth checking out.

In addition to the waterproof feature, it has a cute little window that lets you view a shiny light on the inside. Of course the light only gets up and going when the drive is actually plugged in. When it’s not plugged in, it just gives a view of a nice coil wire and a quartz crystal on the inside. You can pick yourself up one of the 8GB drives for $125 through Etsy.

Juicy Couture has come out with one more of their very female gadgets, this time they’ve come out with a very cuddly one. This Sid Teddy Bear Speaker will allow for you to curl up and cling tightly to your soft and squishy little speaker. Plus with the giant Juicy Couture ribbon around the neck of the bear everyone will know your brand name preference.

On the back of the bear is a handy little pocket to store your MP3 player within. Then of course there’s an included cord that allows your music to be hooked up to the bear. All of the arms and legs swivel so that you can position your bear into the proper position. They don’t say wear exactly the speakers are located, so they’re probably just positioned somewhere in the chest of the bear. You can purchase one for $58 directly through Juicy Couture.
