    Almost Bionic

    I'd never heard of the Funstuf Electrogenic arm until I started this blog but when it appeared on Ebay I had to have it. It's a crazy little item obviously meant to cash in on the popularity of the Six Million Dollar Man fad without paying a nickel for the rights.


    What's great about it is, it really doesn't do anything. You roll it up your sleeve and it makes you look like Steve Austin, that's it, that's all. It comes with an "Electrogenic coil" (which looks like really nice string) and "Laser Beam Locator" (there it is!) but takes no batteries, so you have to provide your own "dun-nuh-nuh-nuh" sound effects.

    Toymaker Funstuf made a lot of weird but addicting items like this, more on them very soon.

              That's a cool motto on the bottom of the package.

                Love the decal on that. Nothing says cutting edge super powered bionic limbs like radio transistors, copper wiring and a steam gauge.

                You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

                          I think I'd actually still wear this if it fit my arm. It would be worth ripping a hole in a long sleeve shirt to show my 'exposed bionics'.

                          Hmmm... I may have just come up with a halloween costume...
