Although it probably won’t ever hit US shores, the Vobis HIGHSCREEN PP5420 daul-touchscreen smartphone isn’t short on originality. It runs the Android OS and features dualband 900/2100MHz HSPA, WiFi, GPS, 3-inch WQVGA panel, a 3 megapixel camera, microSD card slot, TV out and a second 1.5-inch OLED screen that doubles as a navigational pad. It will hit Russian shores sometime next week and cost about $515.

The cell phone, or mobile phone as you Europeans call it, has come leaps and bounds since its inception in the late 80s. And what better way to show it than with a Russian Matryoshka doll like cell phone toy. Although the cell phone was never as big as the white one, which is literally the mother of them all, it wasn’t too far off. My father owned a Zach from ‘Saved By The Bell’ phone, and let me tell you, that thing was a beast. You could bludgeoned a fully grown grizzly bear if need be.

Fancy yourself a betting man but don’t have the balls to pull the trigger on a real gun? The Russian Roulette 2 carefully holds an inflated balloon in its clutches. Pull the trigger and you’ve got a one in six chance that the trigger loaded pin will fire, resulting in an ear blasting, but non lethal balloon explosion. Endless amounts of drunken betting can be yours for $16.
