Sometime ago we wrote about Designer Dr. Romanelli’s take on Hello Kitty and the special collaboration with Sanrio and MEDICOM TOY. Well we never really expected it to be available for purchase but low and behold it seems that Mimoco has caught the Hello Kitty bug and is now selling DRx Hello Kitty Anatomical Blue Version and DRx Hello Kitty Anatomical Vintage. The design is still intact showing all of the world Hello Kitty’s guts. So for those with a bit of twisted humor can purchase them for $99 each. Too bad a USB flash drive wasn’t added ...

As we all know, the awards season is here and the second most important thing people want to know besides who won, is what the celebs are getting for swag. The 52nd Annual Grammy Awards show takes place tonight and we got a few details on some of the items popping up in Lady Gaga, Beyonce, Taylor Swift, Kings of Leon, and probably Kanye West’s gift bag (if he doesn’t act like a fool again.) This time the Grammy’s have gone techie and are offering a plethora of loot that are gadgety in one way or another.

This DuraCoat Glock Gun Lady Swat Digital is a dangerous example of products that should remain in its natural state and don’t necessarily need a new paint job like those gadgets that get the Colorware treatment do. Jim’s Gun Supply is no stranger to controversy, and yet they still continue to pump out designs on guns that in the end, make them look like toys instead of dangerous weapons. Obviously with this design they are reaching out to not only women but geeks as well. Of course no one is forcing anyone to send in their guns to them to get a face-lift, but ...

From February 12th to the 28th, many of us will be glued to the tube for hours and hours of non-stop 2010 winter Olympic coverage in Vancouver.
