Vilner Land Rover Defender

 Hardcore off-road credibility meets well-appointed luxury in the Vilner Land Rover Defender ($TBA). This aftermarket mod replaces the Defender's spartan interior with sport bucket seats in the front, leather everywhere, a 600-watt entertainment system with dedicated subwoofer and two LCD screens, ambient lighting, and additional sound and heat proofing — all without sacrificing the four-wheel-drive's ruggedness.

Jellyfish Tank

     Desktop-sized jellyfish tank? priceless. This Jellyfish Tank was developed from the ground up specifically for Medusozoa by the experts at Jellyfish Art, and features full-spectrum energy efficient LEDs for illumination, an air diffuser for maximum oxygenation, built-in biological, chemical, and mechanical filtration, a bubble channel to shield the jellyfish from the air, and an included voucher good for three of the little bastards and a pack of food. $350

Doomed Crystal Skull Shot Glass

There was probably some amount of historical truth behind the story of the latest Indiana Jones film, but all we remember is aliens and aborigines. Since the movie is three years old now, it’s safe to say that if you haven’t seen it yet you probably never will. The basic synopsis is that there are mystical skulls with mysterious powers and the Soviets are trying to exploit their power for their own nefarious ends. Outside of the fact that this crystal skull shot glass shares a similar name and is made of clear glass, there isn’t too much it has in common with the latest Indiana Jones. But it is a clear, 2.5oz shot glass with a skull carved on the inside that you get to drink out of. If Indiana Jones were real and he was drinking something like Crystal Head Vodka, we’d like to think he’d do it out of a shot glass like this. $10

Frozen Pints – Craft Beer Ice Cream

There are more ice cream flavors on the market today than I could ever hope to try—Ben & Jerry’s alone is busy cramming caramel swirls and chocolate fish into new concoctions while we speak. What I would like to indulge in however, is some beer flavored ice cream. But before you go running off and dumping a six pack of Miller Lite into your KitchenAid for me (though I appreciate the offer) I wanna try the interesting flavors from Frozen Pints first. Using delicious craft brews and fresh ingredients the mad scientists over at Frozen Pints have developed a whole line of craft beer ice cream. I'm flat-out dying to get a spoon into the Cinnamon Espresso Stout and the Honey IPA but frankly would happily settle on a pint of any of them and then just just eat away until I'm buzzed.

BMW M1 Hommage

The BMW M1 Hommage blends a wide, aggressive stance with intentionally retro/modern twists on the key visual elements that defined Paul Bracq's original BMW Turbo concept and the Giugiaro-designed M1 homologation special that followed. It is instantly recognizable as an M1, particularly in profile, where the M1 Hommage's basic shape clearly mimics that of its forebear. BMW's stylists also incorporated similar nods the particulars of the original, such as the louvered rear window; the badge placement in back; the line extending aft from the side glass; and even the wheel design, which is an exaggerated take on the ones you'll find on the original road car. Poring over the details of the Homage is akin to going on an Easter Egg hunt.

The greatest departure is seen in front, where BMW has given the M1 Hommage a sinister, imposing face. Naturally, BMW's prominent double-kidney grille is front and center. Its joined by outboard intakes and a trapezoidal lower opening designed to swallow and direct air for both cooling purposes and aerodynamic effect. The car's four round headlights lurk behind thin slits in the front fascia, remaining essentially invisible until they're illuminated -- a tip of the cap to the hideaway nature of the classic M1's flip-up lamps.

There appears to be no interior, and BMW doesn't even bother mentioning specific powertrain possibilities. The M1 Hommage is strictly a design exercise meant to celebrate an icon, but it also reminds us that Munich can do the supercar thing, too. Maybe one day it will again.

Patron Glasses

Whether you appreciate its clean lines or fear its mind altering contents, the Patrón bottle is unforgettable. It's iconic shape has been trimmed down and repurposed into a bowl / dish with quite a few uses. You can put it by the door and use it for keys and coins. It’s made from hand-blown high quality glass, so you can also fill it with your secret recipe's. $35

Naked & Famous Glow In The Dark Jeans

At first I thought it was just a clever name for some abnormally-bright pants, but nope, these Naked & Famous Glow In The Dark Jeans ($TBA) really do glow in the dark, thanks to a phosphorescent coating that's applied to the Japanese-sourced raw denim. In addition, the coating will fade in certain areas based on your natural wear pattern, so they'll only get cooler with age. Just charge them up in the light and prepare to be noticed.

Noble Alcoholic Tonics

Anything that can be cooked, grilled or baked can be improved with the addition of alcohol. That isn’t a question, it’s just common knowledge. Unfortunately, you can’t beer batter and deep fry everything in your fridge and expect it to come out delicious. (Note: The fact that you might end up failing doesn’t mean you shouldn’t try.) You can already buy bacon flavored whiskey and whiskey flavored bacon, so why shouldn’t there be a larger breadth of food/booze crossover products. Turns out Noble is way ahead of us. The five different handcrafted tonics range from Tuthilltown Bourbon Barrel Matured Maple Syrup (Amber grade Maple syrup matured in charred American oak barrels then spiced with raw Tuthilltown bourbon) to Maple Matured Sherry Bourbon Oak Vinegar (Spanish Sherry Vinegar matured in Single Grain Bourbon Barrels), ensuring you can have everything from boozy pancakes to salad. $23+

bookbook for iphone

Are you very important? Do you have many leatherbound books and an apartment, or a home, that smells of rich mahogany? Do you own an iPhone? Are you Ron Burgundy? If you answered yes to any of these questions, you need a BookBook for your iPhone. The iPhone (cellphones in general really) looks better without a case, this much we know. Unfortunately, we’re also far too familiar with the fact that screens break way too easily and replacements don’t come cheap. You could put your iPhone in whatever case Apple recommends (the one they refuse to give you for free even though it’s practically a necessity), but bumpers are for kid’s bowling parties, not your technological lifeline. Putting that phone into a BookBook not only gives you the convenience of having your wallet and phone together, the fact that it’s leatherbound makes you feel important. $60
