Hm, I could not find the availability area... But did notice one of the minerals included is "irony"...

Seems the whole list on the bottom is April Fool's, including the iCade, the Monolith action figure, and Unicorn Meat.

The thing with ThinkGeek is that these products for the most part "look" the same as their real products...

Thing is, they'll probably be force to make some of them... last year there was such demand for some of their 'joke' products, they had to make them. The tautaun sleeping bag being one.

I need to teach all the kodiaks to write first so they can send in their requests for that to be made real.

One of my only two Runequest characters was a Duck, rolled randomly from the race tables; 1 in 8000 chance. After that, I rolled such damn good stats for him (including a soldier background, a 13 Strength—maximum for a Duck, a 17 Dexterity, etc.) that I played him as a paladuck, a paladin Duck that fought for oppressed Ducks everywhere. (In a comical fashion, of course.) It led to some interesting game play for the short time the game lasted. :D
