This week’s search stemmed from a “blow monkey nail dryer” that I saw on someone’s blog, which started then an avalanche of discovery of “o i never thought of that/ o cool it actually exists!” stuffs.
Cute Monkey Nail Polish Dryer
I found this on
ebay, but it is also featured in this
blog and was on
boysstuff.co.uk, but is no longer avaliable from there. (Which, by the way, have a lot of cool pointless toys and one should check them out)
This monkey search brought along these guys:
(Note: Most are from Ebay… if the link is broken by the time you read this, you probably could try to search it again using the title as the keywords)
Multicolour Round LED Night Light
This light is touch sensitive. And the colour changing part works like the ones I got from Ikea, except these are touch sensitive and much prettier!
Temp. Sensitive LED Faucet
As for these colour chaging faucets, my boyfriend has mentioned it before. I suppose he would be surprised if I could got it from Ebay for so cheap. (Though I do believe that instructables probably have instructions how to make one yourself)
Bright LED Book Reading Night Light
Comparing this picture with some of the book lights i’ve seen for travelers (i was sitting next to this guy and i was like, gosh, even a candle light would have more light than that. And the ride WAS bumpy. I couldn’t help wondering if he is reading, or mere flipping the book.), it is so much better. This light would have done nothing for the bumpy ride, but at least it looks bright and lits up the reading area evenly.
Multipurpose Gadget Holder
These little guys’ mouth is the “holder” where you can put your DS, cell phone, or business cards in. Cute! (and a bit cruel?)
These, as you can tell by the very obvious watermark logo, come from a store called Locomo. I never got stuffs from them, so I’m not sure if the above are like the other 1 million ebay products that looks cool and falls apart the next day. However, my impression is that they have pretty good english, they don’t have very restricting return policy / feedback instructions (compare with the last one), and the picture seems pretty ok
Anyone else got comments on them?
DragonBall Z 7 Stars Crystal ball Light Key Chain
Those LED searches led me to this! o and this little key chain LIGHTS UP!. This is so special and ordinary at the same time that I want to have it; but at 12.99? Maybe not. Though, considering that includes the shipping (from China) it may not be that expensive afterall.
Finally,
Dragon Ball Z LED Light (x7)
It’s for $42.49 + $15 shipping which brings it to a little more than 8 dollars per lamp. Not bad, but the seller is super annoying. Its policy basically says you must leave positive feedback, check the radio buttons says that the description is very accurate, that you are very satisfied with their communication, that they shipped very quickly and everything is very resonably charged. I don’t even know if Ebay allow this kind of listings. However, let’s not get into that. The anime itself is cool and so are the lights. And you know, there’s no harm in “window shopping”, right?

Before we end, let me add an extra item that I found yesterday and have a strong urge to share!
2009 Bubble Calendar
YES! It’s a bubble wrap calendar with a bubble to pop each day! It’s on sale now too cos we are half way through the year (CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT?), but… at least that helps you pace yourself in popping the bubble wrap and you are garunteed to have a bubble to pop each day. Genius mash-up but, why is the calendar vertical???
