If I had a million bucks to spare, I’d probably open up a business, or invest it in something that could make the money grow. Then I’d eventually donate a percentage to charity, set aside some money for a vacation with my family, get a whole new wardrobe, and probably get a lot of more stuff that I normally wouldn’t.

Here’s a rare piece of cosplaying accessory that would go well with the foam pickaxe. This Minecraft avatar cardboard head was one of only three such heads given away at E3 2011. You might be thinking to yourself, meh, that’s not so boss, I could print one on my own.

The old PS3 models occasionally had a problem with overheating, so when modder and PS3HAX administrator Pirate decided to make his second PS3 laptop mod, he decided to install a liquid-cooling system to ensure that it won’t be fried.

This spectacular custom Transformer turned up on eBay this week, and it’s really a beauty. The Masterpiece Scorponok was created by ThyVipera Customs, and it measures about 2 feet tall.

Geeks are an interesting lot. We all want to be the first to get our hands on things no matter if you are a car geek, a game geek, or a gadget geek. Being first is cool, unless the first release of something has big issues, and then things aren’t so cool.

That’s right folks! For the low low price of £5000 (appx. $8,200 USD), you can get the definitive Nintendo Virtual Boy collection! Proof that trash turns to treasure if you give it enough time. And who wants a partial collection of junk?

When I was a kid, I always wanted a Harrier jet. They aren’t the best looking or fastest, but they can take off and land like a helicopter, which made up for other shortcomings in my book.

Video game-themed shoes are nothing new, which is why I’m disappointed with these apparently official Nike Air Force 1 Low PlayStation sneakers.

I was browsing through the deep recesses of eBay today, when I stumbled onto this strange listing for a “Virtual Reality” system.

For some reason, I always thought the first transparent computer Apple ever made was the original Bondi blue iMac. Well, it turns out that back in the late 1980s, a handful of Mac SE computers were made without any pigmentation, so you could see clear through them. From what I can tell, only about 10 of these machines were ever made, and they lived within the walls of Apple.

Self-declared “Superman nerd” Scott Trosclair (aka “Scottage Cheese”) built this insane version of the Fortress of Solitude for his desk at work. Unfortunately, Scott’s employer is shutting down, and his Fortress needs a new home. Why not help a brother out, and make it yours? The entire Fortress rig is available now over on eBay.

The sharp eyes over at GameSniped spotted another rare gem at eBay. If you still have your NES console and a couple of driving or flying games, dust ’em off and bid for the Video Game Super Chair controller. Even though it looks like it was put together in a junkyard, eBay seller funkmutha74 swears that this is an actual product, or rather an actual prototype.

Ever wanted a Playstation 3 laptop, but didn’t have the DIY chops to make your own? Well modder low_budget has a solution for you. He’s making PS3 Slim laptops and started selling them on eBay.

The zombie-slaying, weapon-combining Chuck Greene makes his video game debut this month in Dead Rising 2. Whereas the hero of the first game sported a typical business casual attire while slaughtering undead, Chuck wears an instantly iconic motorcycle jacket.

eBay member felixollie seems to have quite the treasure in his hands. It’s a rare Final Fantasy crystal orb that was given away by Nintendo Power magazine back in 1990. Only 50 were made, and this one is in very good condition.

Got $30,000 lying around? Then head on over to this auction over on eBay, and you too can be the proud owner of an entire video game store. Ok, not the entire store, but everything inside the store, including a veritable crap-ton of video games, accessories and display units, including “allot (sic) of vintage items that are hard to find.”
