Gift Guide: R2-D2 Aquarium



R2-D2 Aquarium
(Kids, Under $250)

Earning a close second for world's coolest fish tank (naturally first prize goes to those restaurants in Japan where bikini-clad "mermaids" perform), this bizarro 'Star Wars' license is actually pretty solid. A 1.75-gallon tank is housed in the chassis and is complete with a filter system and an overhead light that switches between three colors. As a nice touch, R2's eyepiece is actually a periscope viewer into the tank, which is sort of like staring in someone's eye and seeing their belly, but who are we to gripe. To complete the odd juxtaposition, the requisite R2 beeps and whistles are also there, although thankfully for you and presumably your guppies, you can turn them off.

Price: $130
