Geek Gifts Rule: 7 Specialty Items For The Geek In Your Life!
I was bored today, and with my birthday just around the bend I thought I would check out what was new in the world of geek toys. I’m always looking for fun Doctor Who or Walking Dead stuff, so after some research decided to share some of the new items with everyone out there on Geekscape.
Walking Dead SD Plush Dolls ($9.99): Who wouldn’t want a Rick Grimes plush doll? Okay okay, we all know the doll most of you would want to cuddle is Daryl. But come on, he wouldn’t cuddle! These are a neat collectible to go along with the show.
Winchester Tavern Pint Glass ($9.99): For everyone who went out to see The World’s End, I thought this was a cool one to share. A pint glass from the infamous Winchester from the film Shaun of the Dead would be a fun addition to your glass cupboard, don’t you think? If you’re anything like me you already have tons, but one more can’t hurt. Or can it?
Star Trek Starfleet Ice Tray ($9.99): Yes, ice trays get boring, but I haven’t seen a lot of interesting Star Trek stuff in a while. Is it worth the trouble of making room in the freezer, and then making sure you stack the tray on something level just to have Star Trek ice cubes? I think we all know the answer to that.
Doctor Who 50th Anniversary Shot Glasses ($59.99): Come on, it’s the 50th anniversary of the show! Shots for everyone! No really though…these are cool little glasses that have artistic images of the twelve doctors. Fun for decoration or to use!
My Little Pony Doctor Whooves ($14.99): Combine My Little Pony with Doctor Who and what do you get? Apparently this. He resembles Matt Smith as The Doctor and glows in the dark. Why not, right?
Lego C3PO Star Wars Keychain Light ($11.99): If you know me at all, or you’ve been reading my posts, you should know by now I have a certain soft spot for everything Lego. So of course I have to add this item. It’s fun, Lego and actually has a use. Although admittedly it’s probably the most expensive keychain you’ll ever purchase.
Jenga Space Invaders ($29.99): Jenga stresses me out a bit when I play, but I would deal with the pressure to play with this set. Space Invaders? Come on…it looks like a blast. Each player also has their own invader. The object is to get him down in the game. Not sure how it works, but sounds like fun.
I hope you enjoyed this as much as I did! I’d like to hear from you readers: what’s the best toy or collectible you’ve ever bought?
