I once stole a teddy bear from a toy store. I was all of two and I didn’t know any better so my Mom went back inside and paid for him, but if I saw these in a store today, then I’m sure they’d be the ones I’d try to pilfer. I love them and their adorable lack of pants.
Not only do they each sport the appropriately colored blue or yellow tunic, but their expressions are perfect. Kirk is the charmingly handsome ladies bear and Spock has pointy ears and his signature frowny eyebrows. Each measures 13.5″ tall and is sold individually. Now you have to face your own personal Kobayashi Maru and decide which one to purchase. It’s a no win situation. Buy them both.

If you don’t feel like your home security system is good enough, you have options. You could hire a personal guard, install more alarms, or pick a more affordable route: blow up an inflatable turret. Set up his 40″ turret from Portal and you’ll be feeling relaxed and secure in no time. Unless the intruder has a pointy object that is.

If you plan to survive the zombie apocalypse, you’re going to need a hammer. Specifically, you need the Dead On Annihilator Superhammer. What makes it so useful? It has a bottle-opener. You never know when you’ll stumble upon a stash of bottled beverages. You can also use the chisel to smash through tile, brick, and concrete. That’s helpful for removing obstacles and bashing in zombie heads. The handy tool also includes a wrench and demolition axe. Yeah, take that Swiss army knife.

This poster makes Star Wars sexier. The bold design by Russell Walks showcases Darth Vader, his lightsaber, and the Death Star. It might be the swankiest poster for the movie in existence and would fit in perfectly with your art deco themed decor.

If you’ve always been envious of all the cut corners in the props of Battlestar Galactica, these items are for you. You can pretend you’re aboard the Galactica and make official ship log notes in the lined journals. Maybe you can help the Cylons out with the plan they seem to have forgotten about.
After you’ve jotted it down in the fancy notebook with the BSG logo, you can head to the rec room for a relaxing game of Triad. The poker-like game comes with rules, cut corners, and 54 playable cards. You might feel compelled to pull a Starbuck and punch a superior after you’ve won a round or two (and drank a round or several).

ThinkGeek has released new Doctor Who posters based on events from series 5 (the first series featuring Matt Smith as the Eleventh Doctor). If you’re not caught up, I bet you’re inspired to do so now. Go ahead and order the posters; you’ll know exactly what they’re about by the time they arrive. I mean, Daleks and the TARDIS – what more could you want?

Erase the presence of the Dark side from your life with this Gomu Star Wars Eraserland set – or just erase your homework mistakes. This snazzy set of eight erasers comes in a lightsaber shaped box. Five of them are limited to this box only and can’t be found anywhere else. Being able to use the Millennium Falcon to wipe away my errors is almost enough reason to start using a pencil again.

You never know when you will need Batman’s help. That’s why it’s handy to have this batarang keychain from ThinkGeek at your side. The perfectly portable beacon sends out the call for help with just the push of a button. You can project the symbol into the sky or just against a wall in your office. I recommend saving it for dire situations, but I won’t judge if you use it because someone stole your smartphone or you can’t find your way to the toilet in the middle of the night.
