Bacon Chocolate – The Ultimate Novelty Food Treat Combination?
October 7, 2010
Hear at GFM we consider ourselves to be quite the gourmet of the snack food world, purely based on the amount we consume on a weekly basis and in the past we wrote about one of our favourites being Baconnaise – the bacon flavoured mayonnaise.
Now when you first think about Bacon Flavoured Chocolate, don’t be too quick to dismiss it as we are fully aware that often the most delicious food combinations are often born through seemingly insane meetings of tasty morsels, especially when using the likes of the Ice Cream Ball.
Retro Arcade Machine Money Box
September 30, 2010
Nostalgia is a funny old thing, and we all love it. When we saw the Retro Arcade Machine Money Box some of us here at GFM HQ were nearly overcome by feelings and memories from yester year.
Not because we had a childhood money box that we loved, but because this particular money box is shaped like the arcade machine classic, Earth Defenders (Space Invaders). The replica is that “looky likey” it even has the big blocky red and black alien dude on the side.
Remote Controlled Colour Changing Light Bulbs
September 23, 2010
Now and again we stumble across a gadget that gets everyone in the office a little bit excited. The remote Controlled Colour Changing Light Bulbs sent waves of child-like giddiness through more than one of the GFM team.
It did this because it obeys some of the great rules of “For Men” gadgetry – Turn an everyday boring item into a brilliant piece of remote controlled gadgetry that does not cost the earth to buy!
Light bulbs use to be the bane of a man’s existence as they always needed changing and on the hole were pretty dull. They could be made slightly more interesting if you forked out for a red bulb for the bedroom, in the hope of tricking some lusty lady into thinking she was on the scene of a rough 80s “special interest” film set, but only a few had the talent to pull this off and not look like a proper weirdo.
Hot-Cold Mug – Colour Changes As Tea/Coffee Cools!
September 9, 2010
Do you know what the Katy Perry song “Hot N Cold” was written about? No, not about relationships as you might think, it was in fact written about the ever changing temperatures of hot beverages and the fantastic invention of the Hot/Cold Mug, FACT!… maybe.
But in all seriousness the Hot-Cold Mug is a brilliantly simple idea. If you decide to have a nice cool cup of water the mug sits in a deep blue colour with large white lettering displaying the word “COLD” on the side.
Spy Clock Secret Video Camera – Motion & Sound Sensor Activated!
July 18, 2010
“The weather in Russia is good this time of year, comrade…” “Indeed, and the fish is good at café de crem…” Right then, now the normal spy formalities are over and we have the obligatory confirmation code out the way, let’s get down to some proper spying.
The motion and sound activated Spy Clock Secret Camera is by far one of the most covert spy gadgets that we have featured. Admittedly, you are not going to miss this pretty cool looking clock on a shelf, but it is styled in such a way that it won’t look out of place in any office or home.
This is a must for any piece of covert security recording equipment and the fact it is a desk clock not a wall one means you can point it in the direction that you want to record.
Pump Action Shot Gun (Drink Dispenser)
July 5, 2010
Aghh, summer is hear and just to put the icing on the cake it’s also the World Cup. As any real man knows, summer + football = getting drunk, a lot!
So in this vain of though you may consider yourself quite the drunken expert and can see no real room for a booze gadget in your life. Well, to put it simply, when it comes to the Pump Action Shot Gun you’re wrong.
What event would not be improved by an alcohol dispensing shot gun? That’s right, a gun… that shoots alcohol! Some genius has gone and combined two of a man’s favourite things into one magical gadget – yet another cool gadget to use while enjoying burgers cooked with a rotating BBQ!
Spy Pen Video Camera – Covert Audio & Video Recorder
June 29, 2010
If you had not noticed, we love spy gadgets hear at GFM like the great Spy Camera Sunglasses we covered. This Spy Pen Video Camera carries on the covert filming theme as it is pretty much what the title says. A pen with a built in video camera. It still amazes us how they manage to squeeze a camera into something so small. What really amazed us was what else this covert spy gadget had to offer as well.
For starters the camera shoots in VGA quality and stores them as JPG files that are time and date stamped. So that’s a “pen” that can shoot movies in exactly the same quality that an old school video player could show. How technology has moved on never ceases to amaze us.
SaturatoR AK47 Aqua Fire – Rapid, High Power Water Pistol
June 15, 2010
Have you ever dreamed of owning your own AK47 and feeling the pulsing firing action as you fire it at your “friend” who has just beaten you a poker? Well the good news is now you can and no one actually has to die or go to prison thanks to the SaturatoR AK47 Aqua Fire – a rapid, high power water pistol!
This is basically a Terminator style name for an a AK-47 Aqua Fire rapid-fire water pistol modelled on the original Kalashnikov model. In water pistol terms “Rapid-fire” is normally dictated by how fast you can pump your weapon of choice. Not this time!
Key Tool & Shackle Set (Multi-Tool)
May 24, 2010
We love portable multi tools and they don’t come much more portable than the Key Tool & Shackle Set multi-tool.
The basic idea is that it’s a multi-tool that fits over your standard door key like a little jacket. It simply rotates allowing you to use the key or tool when required. At first glance it looks like a brilliant idea, but does not look to useful. How wrong you would be!
Jedi Bathrobe – Dressing Gown Like A Jedi Knight!
March 17, 2010
A Jedi Bathrobe? Oh yes, let me tell you a story…
A long time ago in a bathroom far, far away….
Well not that long ago and not really that far away but anyway. Some genius came up with the idea of combining a towel, and a dressing gown. This meeting of two great ideas created the “Bathrobe”. This idea has now been extended by adding something that instantly makes anything cooler. This of course, as all real men know, is Star Wars. Hell Yeah!
