The movie is still a little less than a year off, but there's already a quick trailer out that you can watch HERE, and this new life size Lightbike.
Pretty cool looking.
There's no other information about the bike at the moment, but it'll probably make the rounds to various places to promote the movie.
It was created by Toymaker Spin Master, and you can check out a better picture of it HERE.

This is a nice set of movies. The only bad thing is that the classic Spaghetti Westerns aren't a part of it. Though you do get Pale Rider and Unforgiven, and all of the Dirty Harry movies.

The murals come in 6×10 or 9×15 foot sizes, and go on the wall like wallpaper. Right now they have a number of comicbook related murals such as Batman, Superman, Spiderman, transformers, the Marvel comicbook cover pictured to the left, and several kid versions. Here's the details from the site about how they work:
Our XL Murals are a bit different than other RoomMates products. First of all, they’re huge–up to 15’ wide! Instead of using our proprietary Peel and Stick technology, RoomMates XL Murals are printed on a revolutionary prepasted material called Surestrip™, which makes it much easier to install such large wall graphics.
XL Murals are not peel and stick products. They are prepasted and water-activated. Just dip the strip into a bit of lukewarm water, wait a minute, apply to the wall, then smooth the strip with a soft brush and repeat with the next sequentially-numbered strip. Your mural goes up in minutes as well (and certainly faster than if you were to paint the same surface).
RoomMates XL Murals remove easily too! Simply pick two corners and start pulling off the wall. Each strip will remove in seconds, and in full strips! No tools needed! Please note that RoomMates XL murals are not re-usable or repositionable after complete installation.
You can check them all out over at the Roommate site HERE.

This is a great idea, but I'm not sure that I would actually wear one. Mostly just because it looks like your ready for a chemical attack of some sort, rather than just trying to keep warm.
The mask's main function is helping you breathe in cold weather. The mask makes the air that you breathe in 40°– 60°F higher than the outside temperature. It also helps protect your head from the cold, keeps moisture away from your face, and has enough space in the mask for a hydration tube and/or a headset and mic.
The mask is $80, which seems like a pretty decent price to me. You can grab one over at the Talus Outdoor site HERE.
