Gameboy Plushies Custom Made to Your Liking

GeekSugar — Fri, 06 Jun 2008 13:40:55 -0700

I don't know why I've been on such an art and crafts binge lately, but c'mon, how can I not be when I see such adorable geek gear like the hand-painted Bluetooth earpieces and the Super Mario Galaxy keychain and bracelet! Here's another one to add to the geekilicious handmade collection list - Gameboy Plushies! Although these fuzzy creations are hand stitched with felt, I'm not really getting the $45 price tag. But they do measure just under a foot, which may make for one cozy little pillow.

Totally Geeky or Geek Chic? Plush Animal Speakers

GeekSugar — Wed, 18 Jul 2007 07:00:11 -0700

SkinnyMarie shared these fun Plush Animal Speakers with me, saying that they were given to her as a gag gift because she have been infatuated by penguins since she was five.

While we can all agree that novelty speakers shaped like cupcakes or tiny wooden cubes probably don't boost the sound power of more serious speakers, these are fun desktop accessories. They are currently on sale for $16 and feature a plug-and-play design that works with laptops, iPod, CD or MP3 players.

Totally Geeky or Geek Chic? Plush Camera Case

GeekSugar — Tue, 01 May 2007 08:00:33 -0700

Kristen of Plush You recently got a chance to interview star crafter Blythe Church who makes fun looking plush objects and it donned on me that this would make the ideal camera cover. As you all know, PartySugar and I have each been looking for sleek camera cases for our Canon PowerShot cameras and while I don't have the time to create my own case, I can think of nothing more adorable than a plush case that matches the camera's style.

Stuffed Animal iPod Dock: Love It or Leave It?

GeekSugar — Tue, 20 Jan 2009 15:35:04 -0800

Holy adorableness! These stuffed animal iPod docks, or Printed Rockin' Plushes, have to be the most precious iPod speakers on the market.

The black and white polka-dot kangaroo or pink patterned bear are both on sale for $35-$39 from PB Kids, and inside their little pouches are iPod jacks and amps. The tunes come out of two speakers and they just need two AA batteries, and perhaps frequent hugs.

Do you need a child to enjoy these soft iPod speakers? Maybe, to make it socially acceptable. What do you think?

Regression Alert: I Need These Star Wars Stuffed Animals

GeekSugar — Wed, 31 Dec 2008 13:00:54 -0800

Please, someone, tell me what it is about Star Wars that makes me want to have items that I have long outgrown. They put Storm Troopers on keychain-sized figurines and throw pillows with famous lines, and though they go with nothing, though I would be embarrassed for my nongeek friends and family to see them, I want them.

And here we go again: Star Wars Plush Dolls ($14). Look at their big heads! Is it too much to hope that when I have kids, these will still be produced? Maybe I better order a few to keep just in case.

Priced at only $8, this bib offers the keyboard print on one side and a plush chenille on the reverse. And for geeky adults you can pick up the QWERTY Keyboard Pocketbook for a matching ensemble.

GeekSugar — Wed, 23 Jul 2008 02:00:17 -0700

If you've always wanted to rock out like one of the most respected rappers in the music industry, then feast your eyes on these beauties - the Beats by Dr. Dre headphones. Set to make their debut this Friday, and retailing for $350 (I know, totally pricey, but hear me out before you get turned off), the Beats headphones are like what a Bentley is to cars - luxurious, high quality, and worth every penny.

Dr. Dre has teamed up with Monster to create headphones that offer deep bass, clarity and a high definition listening experience. With isolation technology, plush breathable cushions for your ears, and an included Monster iSoniTalk cable with a built-in answer button and mic for the iPhone, as I said, worth the dough-re-mi.

You'll notice in the pics below that the headphones come wrapped and packed in total perfection.

The Beats by Dr. Dre will be available at Apple and Best Buy stores. You can also get them online via these retailers as well.
