Laying down to tan is so last year, the new tanning rage is all about being vertical. 

Unlike those old horizontal beds, the new kids on the block save a heck of a lot of space.  The new V28 Pro Vertical Tanning Sunbed does just that, with a variety of features to boot.

With an integrated cooling system, electronic childproof lock & extra space for those tall folks out there, home tanning has never been easier.  Cost, $4,590.

This is what you have to ask yourself, are you a real Winnie-the-Pooh fan?  If the answer is yes, then this $775 Stuffed Winnie-the-Pooh is just for you.

The German company Steiff  has created the largest Pooh ever, a 32-inch wonder, to celebrate the 80th anniversary of the lovable bear.  Only about 1,000 are available worldwide, so you had better get cracking.

Toss’N'Track Flying Internet Disc is kind of retarded, we think.  You let us know how you feel after you read this little bit.

The purpose of the Toss ‘N’ Track is to:

1. Purchase the Toss ‘N’ Track
2. Register it online
3. Toss it somewhere
4. Expect that someone else will pick it up
5. Expect that someone else will register online where they picked it up
6. Expect that someone else will then toss it
7. Expect that someone else, someone else will then do the whole thing all over again, thus allowing you to track where on Earth your Toss ‘N’ Track has journeyed

Question #1:  Will anyone ever really pick up the disc and figure out that its purpose it AND actually follow through?

Question # @:  What do you think?

We all know about talk radio, but what about a talking radio?  This Hot Lips Talking Radio moves its hot, red lips to the beat of the song or people talking on the radio.
 
The motor inside the radio moves the hot lips in sync with any type of music, but works really great with talk radio.  So, listen to talk radio as you watch your talking radio, as you talk about talk radio & your talking radio talk.  A great holiday gift for those talk radio enthusiasts in your family.  Cost, $10. 
 
 
 

Floating Bath Duck Radio Toy

November 20, 2006 | Posted by Allison as Tremendous Toys at 12:00 pm | Comments »

 

If you’re like me, you take bath time very seriously.  The candle has to be the perfect scent, the lighting has to fit my mood & the game has to be on, no matter what I’m doing!

With the Floating Bath Duck Radio Toy, I’m never out of the loop, even when Indianapolis gets beated by the Cowboys.  These handy dandy little duckies are fully waterproof and features an AM/FM radio.  Hilariously, the head rotates as the on/off switch as well as the colume control; the wings are used as the Am’Fm switch and the pink tail twists for station selection.  How cute is that?!  Too much thinking, must go to bath now with new floating friend.

Zero Blaster Makes Vapor Smoke Rings Fun

November 14, 2006 | Posted by Allison as Tremendous Toys at 12:18 pm | Comments »

The Zero Blaster fulfills my longtime desire to somehow blow smoke rings without a cigarette, and here she is!  The Zero Blaster makes glowing vapor rings that can be as large as 12 feet. 

Can we say holiday fun.  Yes, holiday fun!  The blaster comes with whatever special, water-based non-toxic fuel that is used to make the vapor rings and you can reorder, which I would have to do immediately, on their website.  Along with all the vapor fun, you get ray-gun type sound effects and it’s not even a Smith & Wesson!  I love it, Zero Blasters all around this holiday season!  Cost, $20.

AirScooter II Personal Aircraft

November 13, 2006 | Posted by Allison as Tremendous Toys at 1:58 pm | (6) Comments »

Feast your eyes upon the AirScooter II.  It’s pretty nice & shiny, isn’t it?  You want one, don’t you?  I know you do. 

The AirScooter II is a personal aircraft that can hover or even fly up to 55 knots.  Now, that’s a lot of knots.

The personal aircraft uses two rotors in a similar fashion to helicopters, but is much easier to fly & maintain control.  The flight controls are similar to motorcycle controls and there are absolutely no foot petals, so those who do not have use of their legs can now have & fly the AirScooter II.

I personally think it’s fabulous & I’ll take two in pink!

June 30, 2006 | Posted by Allison as Tid Bits & News, Tremendous Toys at 9:44 am | (53) Comments »

Three redesigned Mickey Mouses are being released this summer in hopes that the pop culture image will tempt some sales for the old mouse.

Your choices are the Pass Da M.I.C., Take Off & the Punk.  Choose you favorite from the baggy blues of the M.I.C.; the blocky flip-floped of the Take Off or the faux leather-wearing Punk Mickey. 

The block-like Mickeys with their stylistic features are expected to retail for $40.  Well, I know at least one individual who will be tempted by such mouse fluff…..

Lightning Reaction Extreme, A Shocking Game of Fun

May 9, 2006 | Posted by Allison as Gadgets, Tremendous Toys at 10:34 am | Comments »

The most recent version of Lightning Reaction Extreme is now available. This quick-reaction game has a sting up its sleeve.  How it works:  up to four people hold the pistol grips, someone punches the starter button which makes the time flash & sound. After a random amount of time the timer stops & everyone then tries to click their trigger button as fast as possible. 

Sound like the perfect drinking game?  I think I’ll have to let this one pass me by, sounds like too much fun.  You can treat yourself to this shocking game of fun for only $25.

Radio Control X-UFO

May 5, 2006 | Posted by Allison as Gadgets, Tremendous Toys at 9:41 am | (2) Comments »

Need a radio-controlled gadget to entertain you while you’re watching X-Files reruns?  I have just the thing for you.  The Radio Control X-UFO should solve all your flying saucer needs unless you like to play for more than five minutes.

I’ll admit this is a pretty innovative piece of thing, but you only have five minutes to enjoy the three-dimensional gadget.  Using four electric motors, two propellers and an electronic gyroscope, the makers of the X-UFO were unable to give us more flying time without a 25-minute battery boost.

The X-UFO is made of carbon fiber & EPP foam & can be flown indoors our out, for five minutes.  You also get red & blue flashing LED lights, four-channel radio control and a range of up to 320 feet. 

So, this is what I’ve got.  A light-weight red & blue LED light flashing radio-control flying saucer that will provide me up to five minutes of fun and lead me to a 25-minute battery recharge until I can play again.  Hmmm.  I think I’m going to have to pass.  Although it’s pretty handsome.  Cost, $130.
