Call me a geek, but these stuff are bombs!!! Ok, only geeks use that word ;-D I came across this website
ThinkGeek and found a lot of interesting big boys toys which I think cannot be found here in Malaysia. You might like them, these are my favorites, check it out.
Star Wars Force FX LightsaberThis one is of course my favourite stuff. This isn't a toy for your six year old cousin (he probably doesn't even know what planet Wookies live on). This is an official reproduction of real Lightsabers from Star Wars. "Real lightsabers?", you might be thinking, "Star Wars isn't real!". Tell that to the masses who dress up every day as Darth Vader and Princess Leia across the globe, tell that to the folks who build droid replicas in their garages, study Sith history, and practice their Huttese. Star Wars is very real. And these working lightsabers make that extremely apparent. Featuring realistic lighting and sound effects, these close combat weapons of the Jedi and Sith from the Star Wars saga are absolutely amazing. Price: $119.99

Did anyone watched Merdeka Parade at Putrajaya on tv yesterday? If you don't, there was one funny thing happen. There was supposed to be a little a kid who was assigned to lead others to yell "Merdeka!" during the opening ceremony. I don't know what he was thinking that time but he accidentally overyelled. I supposed the cry should be only 3 times if I'm not mistaken. But what he did was, "Merdeka! Merdeka! Merdeka! Merdeeeee..... Daulat Tuanku!!!". It tickled the crowds and even the Agong laughed too. Maybe he was too excited with the spirit of Merdeka.
