This is a pretty good list. There's a number of things that are way too easy, like poker chips, some you wouldn't think of like an automatic card shuffler, and things that are a little off the wall like steel playing cards.
You can check out the site HERE to see the whole list.

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.

I wish there was a lot more information about this. Though I guess there's not a whole lot to say about a metal cage that holds wine.
What details there are is that it's made of hand-welded and fabricated iron, holds twelve bottles of wine, weighs about forty pounds, and is pretty cool looking.
It costs a hefty $199 dollars, but I'm pretty sure no one else you know will have one.
You can grab one over at the Restoration Hardware site HERE.

I've always wanted to try and deep fry a turkey. I know that it's one of those things that can go horribly wrong, which is half the fun, but I've also heard that they're really good fried. Of course, pretty much anything deep fried is pretty good.
Here's the details from Amazon:
Whether gathering the family for Thanksgiving dinner or making a variety of meals to freeze for later, this electric turkey fryer delivers foolproof operation and delicious results–and it can be safely used indoors, right from the convenience of the kitchen counter. The appliance accommodates turkeys up to 14 pounds, and it uses a third less oil than conventional turkey fryers, which means less oil wasted and healthier, lower-fat recipes. The unit also provides a cooking basket, complete with a handy drain clip, that makes it possible to fry up a variety of favorite foods like doughnuts, French fries, onion rings, and more. Its user-friendly control panel consists of a digital timer, a red "power" light, a green "ready" light, and a simple control knob for adjusting the thermostat up to 375 degrees F. Other highlights include a fold-away lid with a viewing window, a built-in filter to reduce cooking odors, a porcelain-coated inner pot with a built-in drain valve for easy cleaning, and a space-saving design that takes up minimal space on the counter.
You can get one for $117 over at Amazon HERE.

This is the same sort of set up as an infinity edge pool. It gives the aquarium a great look to it. Here's how it works:
The water flows over all four sides of the aquarium into an overflow channel that runs around the entire perimeter of the tank. There are drains located in this area of the system that allows the water to circulate between the sump and the tank itself. The ZeroEdge Aquarium offers an industry first Integrated Drain Assembly (patent pending). Simply set the ZeroEdge Aquarium on the cabinet stand and the drain connection is complete. It’s that easy. No annoying hassles with bulkheads, clamps and drain hoses. This streamlined plumbing design eliminates leaking bulkheads and drain hoses ensuring years of worry free service. Apart from being easy to set up you will find the draining to be amazingly quiet. It’s gentle channeling of water to the sump also cuts down on evaporation. There is no splashing or fizzy bubbles typically found in standard reef aquariums because there are no drain lines to sumps and messy return lines that agitate the surface water. All you see is a smooth glass-like surface.
You can check them out at the ZeroEdge site HERE.

If you're a boat lover, this might be right up your alley. It's a hand built bar that is made to look like a classic wooden
runabout style boat.
There's a number of different options, such as: port or starboard; recessed or smooth; and standard, red or brown mahogany, just to name a few.
Several of the options will add to the total cost, and the base price is $15,109.00.

This system would be great for people in an apartment or condo. The speakers are built into the loveseat, so the sound is local just to you, not the whole room. Here's the details from the press release:
Eden Prairie, MN (August 6, 2009) – BodySound Technologies, Inc. now offers a home theater system designed for condominiums, lofts, and apartments, that dramatically differs from existing room surround sound systems. The problem with present day surround sound is that the sound is designed to illuminate the room and typically spreads to adjoining rooms. With the increasing popularity of home theater and condo living, concerns about noisy neighbors have become a bigger issue.
Residents of condominiums and apartments must comply with bylaws causing them to exercise extreme care to avoid unnecessary noise when using radios, televisions, and amplifiers that may disturb others. This makes it impractical to use in-wall speakers and subwoofers, as the sound they produce spreads to adjacent rooms and units.
But that doesn't mean condo owners and renters have to give up on high quality sound. An alternative to traditional room surround sound has been developed by BodySound Technologies, Inc. It’s the fusion of luxury seating and close-field acoustics. The sound comes from the headrest, arms, back, and seat so the sound is focused on each individual listener.
Much less sound spreads throughout the room and adjacent spaces when using BodySound technology.
Each seat powers its 7-speaker array with its own multi-processor audio system. Seating arrangements include recliners, love seats, couches, and connected rows and curves of seats. Seats range in price from approximately $5,000 to $6,000 per seat depending upon the type of arrangement and options.
“Using a traditional surround sound system in a condo requires extensive soundproofing, costing about $8,000 to $10,000”, says Dan Cohen, CEO of BodySound Technologies. “You can’t take those improvements with you when you move unlike BodySound seating.”

These come in both Metal and Wood versions. Not sure about the price, but I would guess that you would need to contact them. Here's the details from the site:
Times are changing, things get blurred, and “fusion” has become more than just a concept : we have fusion of generations, fusion of cultures, fusion cuisine, fusion music. Now we finally have the Fusion table.
For years, dining tables have been an object of design. They come in all shapes, materials and styles but they all remain basically mono-functional serving as a dining table only.
People however have changed dramatically. Well designed products are still a must but people increasingly look for emotional value. They don’t just buy nice products : they look for good times, passion, emotions, moments to remember.
That’s why in this computer age, the new trend of lounging and cocooning at home, sharing memorable moments with your family or friends in a relaxed way and in the comfort & cosiness on one’s home, has become important to balance our lives.
When it comes to family home entertainment, the Fusion table has everything needed to create those unique memorable moments to share. Convertible in just seconds, the Fusion table transforms a design dining table in a high quality billiard or game table. Created by Aramith, long-time leading manufacturer in the billiard industry, the Fusion dining table innovates by adding multi-functionality as it combines a dining table, a pool table and a game table all in one. As such Fusion dining pool tables add new and exciting dimensions to entertainment and the dining room.
Today, a good product is not just about great design, it’s about life, it’s about people and it needs to address their need for good times and precious moments. Bringing emotional value and quality time is the key characteristic of the Fusion tables. Built with “Know-How” to entertain, the Fusion tables have indeed exactly what it takes to surprise and create those unique, exiting and memorable moments for you, your family and guests.
So after dinner, open up the table and play a game of pool with the after-dinner drinks. Billiards is one of the only games that can bring together and entertain young and old, male and female, friends and neighbours.
We had pleasure creating the fusion table, we hope you’ll enjoy using it.
