Star Wars characters have already been given the Lego Minifig alarm clock makeover, and now Toy Story joins the party with Buzz Lightyear and Woody versions.
The figures are around 9-inches tall and feature poseable arms, and LCD alarm clock and snooze/backlight funtionality when the head is pressed down.

I know it’s cute. I know it’s Gundam and I know someone probably loves this thing to squishy little bits — but I’ll admit that, if I used this as an alarm clock, it would become squishy little bits on the first morning it actually went off.
However, if you’re not as protective of your sleep as I am, and you need an extra jolt to get moving in the morning, you can get this Haro Alarm clock in pink and the original green. Or just don’t use it as an alarm clock and enjoy the cute. ::grin::

We posted on the availability of the Star Wars MP3 speaker lamp alarm clocks the other day, but it turns out that there is also an Iron Man version on its way. The title on the product page even says “Star Wars Iron Man 2 Lamp Clock”.
Now that would be an interesting movie mash up.

Remember those weird looking Star Wars speakers that were spotted at this year’s Toy Fair? Well, as it turns out, they were lamps. And now all three models (Darth Vader, Stormtrooper, and Boba Fett) are available for pre-order with shipment set for August.
Over the weekend I spotted robots galore at the Accipter gallery in Raleigh NC. The “Fobots” pictured above are found object (mostly vintage) sculptures created by artist Amy Flynn.
After the break we have a spring-loaded robot alarm clock which, I can only assume, would be a huge pain in the ass to turn off each morning.
There have been several Vader alarm clocks in the past, but the latest exclusive from the official StarWarsShop might very well be the most effective at getting you up. You see, each morning will be met with an alarm and the projected shadow of Darth Vader on the wall, ready to strike. There are no details on how big the projected image actually is, but if it’s life-size, you might be headed back to bedwetting.

Hahaha…what? An ox head that verbally tells you the time and temperature but also functions as an alarm clock and 4-LED headlamp with winking eye controls? Amazingly enough, this wonder product actually exists—and it’s cheap as hell to boot.

There have been several versions of dynamite alarm clocks or bomb alarm clocks in the past, but this one is by far the best looking. So good in fact, that it would be highly dangerous to transport it on airplanes or across borders.

This battery-shaped radio doubles as an alarm clock—which is cool in a crazy China gadget sort of way. If only it were an MP3 player!

It looks like a mini boombox, but in reality it is a wooden alarm clock with an LED display that can also function as a speaker for MP3 players and computers. Unfortunately this is a wholesale product, so there is a minimum order of 1000 units. Why anyone would need that many is beyond me—unless you have a really hard time waking up in the morning.
