paperclip-coat-hook

At 11-inches long, this clip is less about paper than it is about securing coats and bags. Just imagine what a gigantic McGyver could do with this.

rocket-thermometer

When the temperature skyrockets or plummets to the Earth, this is the thermometer to have. At 3-feet tall, the rocket thermometer can be viewed easily from the temperature-controlled comfort of the indoors.

flexible-embrace-holder

The Flexible Embrace Auto Holder will lock just about anything into its cartoon-esque embrace to keep it in place as you travel. Setting the hands high and low on whatever it is holding gives it a much more secure grasp on the item. The holder attaches to your dashboard with a dash sticker, as they call it, so maybe having it hold that soda as pictured is not such a great idea. Having it come loose from your dashboard while holding something like your cell phone would not be nearly as likely to cause an accident as 12 ounces of soda soaking both your leg and iPod.

coffee-garbage.jpg

This Starbucks-esque coffee cup is intended to be used as a garbage can (with a reminder about recycling), but for real coffee addicts it could double as a super-sized venti fix. Additional images are available after the break.

How about a 6′×.75″×.125″ rubber band for Christmas this year? These giant rubber bands are normally used in the shipping industry to bind boxes on pallets, but now they are offered as a novelty. The product page includes several possible uses for them, including “exercise, giant slingshots, and strengthening trust between loved ones” (whatever the hell that means). However, I’d say that the greatest purpose for these will be to challenge your will, as I’m sure the urge to misuse them is overwhelming.

pterosaurus-statue.jpg

Yeah, I don’t think the Orkin man is going to be able to handle the situation you have going on here—unless he happens to have a shotgun in that van of his.

This giant Pterosaurs statue measures 208″ x 37″ x 106″ (approx. 17′ x 3′ x 9′ )

giant-plush-octopus.jpg

If your kids are not into cute and cuddly plush toys, perhaps they would prefer a hideous 36-inch octopus instead? Man, your kids are weird.

giant-inflatable-middle-finger.jpg

When you think about it, flipping off that dude who cut you off with your tiny hand is somewhat ineffective as a means of projecting your rage. However, if you whip one of these giant inflatable middle fingers out the window, you are sure to get your point across…and then some. Also works great at sporting events when foam fingers just won’t do (until you get kicked out that is).

5footlure_1.jpg

I’m not a fisherman, but I do know that you will have a hard time handling a fish big enough to be caught with a 5 foot lure. So, it looks like that spot you reserved over your mantle for a certain mythical monster of the sea will remain empty for a long time to come.

pushpin-wall-hook.jpg

The idea of using giant pushpins as wall hooks is amusing—and by the looks of things I wouldn’t want to be on the receiving end if they were wielded as a weapon.
