The Kobold Phantom

There has been a lot of noise going around in the underground 24 forums, and one of things being discussed in this watch. The Kobold Phantom is told to be the real Jack Bauer watch because its development for tactical use with the Special Forces and Green Berets. It has a solid black stainless steel case and bracelet with a special coating called PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition), and three layers of this special coating is applied to the Phantom to assure its complete resistance to scratching. This watch is to be used in situations such as forced entry and tactical missions, it can be easily used with gloves and full tactical gear, and integrating with that gear. No wonder they said Jack Bauer wears this watch during this missions.

The Slanket...

This is the funniest and coolest furniture accessory I have seen yet. It is called the slanket, I think because its a mutation between a blanket and a sweater. Who wouldn’t want to have something this cozy while sitting on the couch, you would remain as stationary as possible and still be able to access snacks and drinks. It comes in 9 different colors, and on another note I find it hilarious how happy this guy looks on the couch. For $45 its fantastic to have in every living room, just find the color you want.

Atlas Card Holder...

I was surfing around for a cool card holder, just to see what is available when I stumbled upon this site. They have some interesting ideas, and I really like this Atlas Card Holder, it looks modern and its different then most. I think the room would have to have some similarity with it to look this way. All these items are made and designed by Jac Zagoory which is really cool.

Price: $95

He comes up with The Roddler, I have seen some cool looking strollers over the past couple of years, but nothing can top this one.

Review: Lexar 16 GB Express Card...

dsc02404.jpg

Over the past year storage companies have been introducing Solid State Disks to laptops and other products. They are very expensive once you go past the 32 GB mark, but they do have their positive sides.

Pros:

  • Quickly adds 16 GB to your laptop
  • Very dependable, no moving parts so very low possibility of failure
  • Fast Read
  • Very small and can be used anywhere, it fits inside the laptop

Cons:

  • SSD are still expensive
  • Writing to it is slower then I expected
  • You need an Express Card slot to use it

I managed to get it for $150 off ebay which is a bargain compared to the original price

Price: $200

Elite Sniper Custom – WG65...

65-ris-elite-387×244.gif

The WG-65 RIS Elite Tactical Custom is an ultimate tactical assault marker. It starts with a WG-65 RIS and adds an Elite Sight Rail, Red Dot, Laser Sight and Barrel Extension, adding up to one of the most formidable tactical markers to come along.

This probably looks like a real weapon, I thought it was but its the ultimate paintball gun. It will nail whatever your targeting plus make Rambo jealous. I would snipe people from my roof wearing beige camouflage, who said playing soldier isn’t fun. The funny part is they call it a tactical marker and not a paint ball gun, I have feeling it would make a whole if it needs to!

Price:£380

Giant Flip Clock...

This is a unique clock, sort of the like the old school 1950’s clocks which might flip at the old plants. It has an interesting design of flipping numbers and, you will be sure to know the time where it will be located for sure. I really like this design and might pick it up, but i has to have the right place to place it.

Now these are some interesting statues, they are all one off statues ranging from $95 to $4500. Yumi started this business from her garage and turned into a two shop successful business from being listed online and making quality items. When you see the list of Star Wars, Preditor, Aliens, Terminantor, Stargate, Spiderman, and more one off replicas available for purchase you would be astonished. Some of these statues are amazing in the details, and this is targeting the Sci-Fi Fans, just amazing.

Review: Logitech VX Nano...

vxnano-002.jpg

I have been looking for a laptop mouse for a while now, but I run into a few issues. Either they are of cheap quality or they are too small to be really that functional. Then Logitech comes along and makes the perfect portable mouse, the VX Nano

Pros:

  • Very comfortable fit in your hand
  • Scrolling and scroll lock very well designed
  • Going back between pages is well designed with buttons next to your left finger
  • Wireless mouse connected by 2.4Ghz receiver
  • Receiver is so small it is stored inside the mouse
  • The mouse automatically switches off when the receiver is re-inserted inside of it
  • The wireless receiver plugs into the USB to connect the mouse, and can work out of the box. It is so small it can be left in the laptop if you see fit since it doesn’t protrude out of the laptop.
  • Triple AAA batteries are long lasting
  • Reasonable price for a quality product

Cons:

  • Can’t seem to find any.

Comfortable, Feature-rich, and Well Designed. There is much more you can ask from this mouse, Logitech has come out with another quality product.

Price: $49.99

Porsche Design...

porschedesign.jpg

Porsche has gone into a different field over the years and they have excelled at it to a certain degree. They started off with different types of luggage, wallets, golf clubs, and accessories. Then they expanded to other types of bags, watches, and other items. They have even branded a Porsche Cayman S as a Porsche Cayman Edition 1 with specific upgrades to the Porsche Design way of thought. I have been using some of their bags for business travel, and I have a laptop bag from them. Most of their products look extremely sleek and professional, and they take the minimalist approach to their design. Its functional yet the design is more oriented to keeping sleek and clean lines in their products. Comfort isn’t the highest item on their list when designing a product, its more functional, then it should fit their criteria, then comfort comes in so I changed laptop bags for that reason but they do have some very nice products. But as the name adds to the value these bags and other items don’t come with a cheap price tag.
