iPad + Velcro from Jesse Rosten on Vimeo.

I have the wi-fi only model so I won’t be tacking it up in my car, but the kitchen and picture frame setups look like they could work at my house.

I mention it today because I just got notice of a delivery date. In June. While I don’t doubt these are the greatest vinyl toys in the history of vinyl toys, a 6 month wait from order to potential ship date is a bit much.

And of course I’ve got orders in for a couple more. They really are insane-looking. I have a hunch they will live up to the hype, too.

They’re terrific rainy-day projects with the kids. I’m going to have to try these new models out.

Especially the giraffe.

The 1964 Creepy Crawler Thingmaker from Mattel, a distant cousin of today’s Creepy Crawler toys, came with a series of molds, tubes of “plastigoop,” and an open-faced frier, which could heat up to a nerve-searing 310 degrees.

And is #1 even a surprise?

That’s silver-the-metal, not silver-the-color.

Honestly, when I see the phrase, “pointless and selfish ways to spend… money”, I can’t help but think, “Mike”. Or maybe “Mirror”.
