			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Were big fans of old-school kung fu movies around my house. My daughter and I particularly like Bruce Lee. The downside is that each time we watch a Bruce Lee flick, she stalks around the house and jumped out at any given moment with a Lee-like HI-YAH and punches me in the junk. My only saving grace is that apparently a quality hiiiii-yaaaaa takes some build up so I get a bit of warning when I hear a little hiiiii.</p>
<p><span id="more-93971"></span>If you or someone in your house is a fan of kung fu movies in the cheesy sound effects that go along with them, they need the Dragon Grip that&#8217;s on <a href="http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/dragongrip/dragon-grip">Kickstarter</a> now.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-93972" src="http://technabob.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/dragon-grip.jpg" alt="dragon grip" width="600" height="478" title="dragon grip photo" /><br />
This toy looks like the handle from a joystick and has a trigger and a D-pad on top. When someone does the kung fu moves while pressing the trigger the Dragon Grip makes sounds automatically.</p>
<p><iframe frameborder="0" height="460px" src="http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/dragongrip/dragon-grip/widget/video.html" width="620px"></iframe></p>
<p>The device goes along with a comic book called <em>Legend City.</em> If you want one of these toys, you&#8217;ll need to pledge $25(USD) or more. If you want to grip and the comic book, you&#8217;ll need to cough up $32 or more. The expected delivery on the Dragon Grip is December, assuming the project gets enough pledges to fund it.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There&#8217;s nothing that makes your office or cubicle more cozy than some fun desk toys. So when I saw these animated martial arts kids over on a Japanese website, I said to myself &#8220;I must have these for my desk&#8221;!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-full wp-image-3639 aligncenter" title="kung_fu_boy" src="http://technabob.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/kung_fu_boy.jpg" alt="kung fu boy" width="520" height="520" /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">KANFUBOI (that&#8217;s Kung-Fu-Boy to you and me) have one purpose in life, and that&#8217;s to kick, punch and chop their way through the day. Just set the little dudes on your desktop, switch &#8216;em on, and watch the punches fly. (Actually the one on the left kicks and punches, and the kid on the right chops). A built-in sound sensor sets punches flying on your unsuspecting victims.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-full wp-image-3640 aligncenter" title="kung_fu_boy_boxes" src="http://technabob.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/kung_fu_boy_boxes.jpg" alt="kung fu boy boxes" width="520" height="385" /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Their packaging says &#8220;Try Me&#8221;, and I actually think that&#8217;s some sort of a dare. Of course, they don&#8217;t just do their Kung Fu moves, they let out the appropriate sound effects as they go.</p>

<p>Unfortunately, you&#8217;ll have to find a way to fly these in from Japan if you want a pair for your desk. They&#8217;re available from <a href="http://64.233.179.104/translate_c?hl=en&amp;langpair=ja|en&amp;u=http://www.e-good-s.com/zakka/toy/kung_fu_boy/kung_fu_boy.htm&amp;usg=ALkJrhiqimrygMTOl_7UHGoS9bOLC8giwQ">E-Goods</a> for ¥1995 (appx. $18 USD) each.</p>
