Top 5 Dexter collectibles 2011

Dexter 7 Inch Action Figure Dexter In Jumpsuit

Bif Bang Pow! Dexter 7 Inch Action Figure Dexter In Jumpsuit

* The good-guy/bad-guy has a new look! Detailed action figure from Bif Bang Pow! features Michael C. Hall as Dexter. This blood-spatter expert sports a real cloth outfit! Includes a handsaw and welder's mask with flip-down visor! Dexter won't let anyone or anything stop his vengeance on serial killers. Based on the hit Showtime TV series Dexter, this remarkable 7-inch action figure gives the good-guy/bad-guy a new look!

Dexter Limited-Edition Bust


Dark Horse Deluxe Dexter Limited-Edition Bust

Dexter Morgan, Miami Metro Police Department blood-spatter analyst, has a double life. When he's not helping the homicide division solve murders, he spends his time hunting and killing bad guys who slip through the justice system. Dark Horse Deluxe captures the world's most notorious serial killer! In bringing the character - brilliantly portrayed by Michael C. Hall and sculpted by Gentle Giant Studios - into a sculpture, Dark Horse wanted to capture both "sides" of everyone's favorite serial killer. With Dexter in his signature henley-style shirt, in front he is examining a blood-spatter slide, but danger lurks hidden behind his back.

Dexter The Dark Defender San Diego Comic Con Exclusive Action Figure

Dexter The Dark Defender San Diego Comic Con Exclusive Action Figure

I love the Dexter show as well as the books, granted this toy is based off of the fictional character based on Dexter (who is also a fictional character) in the second season of the Showtime series "The Dark Defender". Growing up I was scared I would never have an excuse to buy an action figure again and alas now I have. It is made of quality plastic, the only drawback was the attention to fine detail like making Dexter look like Michale C Hall since the action figure is from the show that he plays on, but I still think it is an awesome toy for adults.

Dexter 2010 Comic-Con Showtime promo button

Dexter 2010 Comic-Con Showtime promo button or pin

Made Me Smile: Geeky Clean Soaps

Aw, these soaps are so cute! And they seem to smell nice too!

Avatar Bending Soaps – $5.50 (per single bar)

I love how they’ve actually put some thought behind the smells of these soaps! The orange Fire Nation soap is scented with a spicy orange, cinnamon and clove fragrance. The green Earth Nation soap smells like fresh cut grass. The yellow Air Nation soap is scented with nag’champa incense. And the blue Water Nation soap has a lemon verbena mint fragrance.

Browncoat Field Ration – $4.99

Ooh, this one sounds so good!

“A message to the last remaining members of the resistance: take care of yourself. Whether you’re out on that newly terraformed moon, or flying solo through the ‘verse, civility is what separates us from those savages on the fringe. This Browncoat field ration contains a combination of brown sugar scrub on one side, and a creamy apple cinnamon soap on the other. Each bar has 2 whole spoonfuls of real brown sugar.”

The TARDI-soap (caramel and apple fragrance) – $7.00

This one comes in a caramel and apple fragrance and is made of only vegan products!

Soap Dice – $5.50

These come in different colours and smells: Blue – Coconut, Pink – Cherry Lemonade, Orange – Lime Mandarin, Yellow – Banana, Green – Cucumber Melon, White – Unscented, Black – MANLY (Bergamot, Sandalwood & Musk). Ooh, the cherry lemonade and the cucumber melon sounds delicious!

There are more geeky soaps listed on Geeky Clean’s etsy page, like the Dharma Initiative and the Stargate portal (but the above 4 are my favourites).

Top ten tech things you need to pack for college 2010

College is starting soon and you will soon be feeling that familiar feeling like you have forgotten something important. And the truth is that you probably have. No worries, we are here to help. Here are ten tech items that you cannot live without while on camps.

1. A good USB drive

You'll need a good place to save your information. I love the space, the speedy transfer rate, and the overall design of this usb drive. It comes in handy that I can always have it with me on my set of keys and its very sturdy while sitting in my laptops usb port despite the number of keys that I have on there. Very good price and a very good deal!

2. A good fan

Trust me you will need a good fan. Be prepared for a hot smoldering day or your roommates poor hygine. The Lasko 2530 40-Inch Elite Wind Tower Fan is the best fan out there and it has a remote control! It's worth checking out.

3. A trusty backpack

The core of OGIO's street pack lineup offers padded side-entry laptop sleeve, dedicated accessory storage, and a fleece-lined audio pocket. Behind its distinctive quilted half-moon pocket is additional fleece-lined storage for a mouse, power cord, and other tech gear.

4. A basic black and white laser printer

Skip the all-in-one printers and get a personal black-and-white laser printer. Why? Honestly, when are you going to print something in color? When are you going to copy or scan something? The VAST majority of your paper needs are going to be either printing out your papers for turn-in or printing out dozens of pages for highlighting in a literature class or something. The Brother HL-2140 is one of the best and most reliable personal printers.

5. Skip the Ipod Dock and just get an alarm clock

You don't need a special iPod dock. Nobody really wants to hear your pretentious indie crap anyway. Save your roommate and just get an alarm clock.

6. Quality Headphones or earbuds

There is nothing worse then having a crap earphones. You want something that cancels noise, can handle base, and wont breakdown halfway through the semester. These headphones really deliver! Superior sound quality that simply can't be matched with any of those wimpy ear buds I've tried. The noise cancellation is icing on the cake - great for tuning out unwanted racket.

7. A Mini-Fridge

Some dorms come with them some don't. Be sure you know before you go.

8. Heck, bring your own kitchen

Avoid the freshman 15 and dodge the cafeteria. This mini-kitchen can cook a turkey and all the fixins right in your dorm. It's easy to use and doesn't take up too much space.

9. Wii Fit

The gym might have all sorts of great stuff, but let´s be honest, you're not gonna set foot in that place. Mixing workouts with videogames, however, is a different story entirely. Wii Fit's balance board has dual sensors that detect motion and weight.

10. One word...Netbook

Although it may seem hip to be on the Apple bandwagon, it isn't practical. Most homework software isn't compatible with a Mac. You should also avoid something big that you have to lug out in every class. The keyword for campus life is: compact. Internet use and ultra portability. Count on an HP Mini 210 for all that you need this year.

I think I covered all of the important stuff. Let me know what you think. Good luck!
