Archie McPhee, Dynamism

27 December 2006

We went for a trip to the Archie McPhee store. I was tempted by the ninja duck and the avenging unicorn playset. The irony of the U.S.A. vs. Commies Plastic Soldiers being manufactured in China was excellent, but I was ultimately able to pass on everything. Alan wanted to stop by Federal Army and Navy Surplus the other day, so we finally did. They have this large M16 cutout made of wood that’s neat to look at; they’ve added fake AK47 and M16’s to the stable, as well. For $200, you could buy a DEWAT kit and have something that actually looked nice.

If you’re looking for interesting tech imports from Japan, Dynamism has devices you cannot yet get in the US.
