KITCHEN Star Wars Droid Soy Sauce Bottle (Sale, 2007) $36.98

 NCS Product Synopsis

Original Update: December 28, 2007
«©NCSX» Poor R2. Once a champion on the silver screen who saved Jedi and Rebel hides alike from certain death, the droid has fallen from grace. Instead of traversing the galaxy on woolly adventure after adventure, R2 now serves as kitchenware. To be precise, a soy sauce bottle. A few months ago, R2 was a laundry basket. What's next? A toilet roll? A donut holder? Will the madness ever end and is anyone listening?

   Despite our protestations, the R2-D2 exploitation will probably never end so if we can't beat 'em, we join 'em. NCS shamelessly engages in the peddling of R2-D2 products and we're selling the soy sauce bottles today. Each droid holds about 4 oz of liquid in its barrel-like body and the dome on top twists off for easy access to its innards. We tried filling R2 with water, milk, vodka, and soy sauce and everything poured out with ease. That is, until we tried olive oil which was too viscous to make it through the droid's pour-hole. Each droid measures 5" tall and there are no moving parts so the soy sauce bottles should last for a long time with proper care.

TOYS Star Wars R2-D2 Seikai no Post Collection (Sale, 2010) Preorder $78.98

 NCS Product Synopsis

 Update: June 23, 2010
 «©NCSX» Back in the Spring of 2007, the US Postal Service planted a few hundred R2-D2 mailboxes across the USA in commemoration of the 30th anniversary of Star Wars. There was one in front of the big JAF Post Office in Manhattan which we were tempted to "uproot" from the sidewalk but the local constabulary would've probably given chase. Besides, we weren't inclined to spend time incarcerated with bunkmates not of our own choosing.
 
    As summer rolls around, we get an R2-D2 mailbox of our very own. Except it's miniature and serves double duty as a Star Wars themed piggy droid bank which holds coins. There's no coin-slot on the bank but currency may be dropped inside R2-D2 by pulling on the mailbox door and slipping in dimes, pennies, and nickels. The mailbox measures 16cm (6.29") tall and is made of sturdy PVC with four spindly supporting legs.
 
    Ships same-day (M-F) if ordered before 4PM EDT.

SALE Nintendo Family Computer Art Clock (2006) $38.90/Each

    Originally imported from Japan in the summer of 2006.

Original Update: August 01, 2006
«©NCSX» A few years ago, NCS stocked a Spiderman Clock which featured the swinging webhead... literally. Good old Spidey served as a pendulum of sorts and swung dutifully 24/7. Since then, there hasn't been any other import wall clocks that attracted our interest. Until now. Banpresto has been producing merchandise based on Nintendo nostalgia for a few years now and the company releases three wall clocks inspired by retro Nintendo themes as follows:

» Red Famicom console + controller clock
» Blue Famicom logo clock on a dark blue background
» Donkey Kong title screen clock with leaping Mario at 9 'o clock

   We're partial to the Donkey Kong clock but the other two are retro chic as well. The stark design of the blue Famicom logo clock brings back fond memories of the early 80s when Nintendo dominated the market. The clocks are made of a single 1/16" thick PVC disc with a mounting bracket located on the back. Hammer a nail into a wall and then hook the clock onto it. DONE. The diameter of each clock measures 25cm or 9.84" and the hands on each timepiece are colored white for stark contrast against the background colors. A single AA battery (not included) keeps the clock ticking.

   We figure all three clocks would mesh well in our little Nintendo shrine where munchkin visitors may alight on the retro flavored Famicom cushions and fiddle around with Nintendo sound keychains. Pricing is set at US$38.90 each and all preorders ship today. New orders are welcome.

   Orders ship same-day if ordered before 4PM EDT.
