BuckyBalls — Three new executive flavors
Without a doubt, the king of desktop fidget toys is a set of BuckyBalls. Well, guess what? The monarchy just became an oligarchy. Plain BuckyBalls have now been joined by three executive styles: gold plated, silver plated, and black nickel plated. Think of them as regular BuckyBalls all grown up. Or wearing really fancy armor. Yeah, armor. You still get 216 super-crazy, high-power, rare-earth magnets in each set, you still get the convenient little carrying case, and you still get hours and hours of magnetic fun. And don’t worry, these new executive BuckyBalls don’t want to take over — they play nice with the original flavor BuckyBalls you already have. And if you don’t have any regular ones, get them too!
Admit your parentage, save on gifts!

Patriarch Appreciation Day!
Dads always give the best stuff. You know, like when Zeus gave Perseus that flying horse for his 16th birthday? We’re pretty sure his insurance rates went through the roof, but he’s a dad and dads do cool things like that. Speaking of cool dads, Patriarch Appreciation Day is just around the corner (6/20). We’ve gone to great lengths to assemble a fine selection of epic treasures that will delight and astound even the most granite-faced pater familias. Oh and there’s nothing wrong with mixing a little Greek and Latin.
