This will be my 2nd Little Big Planet pack I'll purchase, the first being the Metal Gear costumes. Too bad I have to wait until August to get my hands on them. At least Media Molecule was nice enough to upload large images to their flickr page.
The FEED Bears from the FEED Project are charitable teddys that help feed starving children in East Africa. The FEED Bears, made from organic cotton and natural burlap, come in two sizes, the 8" and 16". The 8" FEED Bear (named 'Nut') is able to feed three kids, while the 16" (named 'Plumpy') feeds five.
The children receive Plumpy'nut, which is a paste made from peanuts, milk, powder, sugar, vegetable oil and a fortified vitamin mineral mixture, to help ensure proper nourishment.
The Rubik's 360 is set to repeat the success of the maddening Cube, which became an overnight sensation almost three decades ago and remains the world's fastest-selling toy. Now the reclusive Hungarian inventor hopes to recreate the buzz of Rubik's Cube with his new game, featuring six balls trapped within three transparent plastic spheres.
The puzzle show here ahead of its unveiling at a toy industry fair in Germany on February 5, confronts users with the same frustrating challenge - a task that is simple to understand, with only one possible solution, yet extremely difficult to execute. Players must get the colored balls from an inner sphere into matching slots on the outer sphere by shaking them through a middle sphere that has only two holes.
Are you gonna buy one?

Once again I need to profess my love to the brainiacs at MIT. Their latest project, "Huggable" is a robotic teddy bear complete with servos, sensors, webcams, speakers, articulated joints, and artificial intelligence. It even acts as a telepresence device mirroring the movements of a remotely controlled Huggable.
The Teddy Bot was designed for early learning and hospital use but lets get to the real deal here. This thing is about as close as we'll get to the lovable "TEDDY" in Spielberg's "A.I." DO WANT!
