Here are listed 10 categories of devices you can buy to make you feel like a James Bond, from laser beams that cut things to x-ray goggles that see through clothes to CSI grade forensic lab hardware.

If Transformer fans already buy a lot of “junk” such as special DVDs, plenty of toys, and other stuff related to the robot characters, just imagine the happiness of owning a cellphone.Made by Softbank and codenamed 815T PB, this strange shaped phone has legs and arms - just like the transformers - so you can use it as a toy.

It’s enough to make you sick. And that, Lieberman says, is not always a bad thing.
