A trenchcoat and a Corvette Stingray (dunno the year, probably 60ish/70ish).

What.

A mug made from a piece of a football goalpost torn down after a very surprising and awesome victory.

A set of Stradivariuses. Just so I could say I had 'em.

I'll take one of these.

I want a Klein Bottle. Then I'd be, as it is said online, teh m4th.

Failing that, vast amounts of wealth.

I already have my Necronomicons.

And my swords.
And my Mace.

But not my "Kobayashi Porcelain" mug.

If I ever get one of those, I hope I don't drop it.

I know a place where you can buy T-800 bust for about $3000. They also have a life sized gremlin (not the car) for the same price.

I want the 40 billion candlepower searchlight system that the Luxor Pyramid in Las Vegas uses. This thing is so friggin' bright that you could read a book on the moon from the light it gives off, hell you can see the damn thing from Mars! You can see the beam of light from a plane from over 250 miles away, the brightness of this thing is unreal. It would be really funny if I could point it at the apartments about half a mile away and just completely blind them. I could have so much fun with the thing.

Whoah, those Klien Bottles make my mind hurt...It's so dizzying...And Aerius, YOU ARE EVIL! People might be trying to sleep, or rob someone...Light is not their friend. I wonder if you live close enough to me to hit me with that thing...

Well, I already have a trenchcoat and uber-cool sunglasses to go with them, so that's out. I wouldn't mind having a katana. Or maybe a Gestapo-style hat, with a large peacock feather on it

. However, I would really like a cape; I mean come on, Lando has a cape, Vader has a cape, Superman has a cape, Batman has a (shabby) cape; EVERYONE in fantasy has some sort of cape. I just want a nice navy blue cape, with gold lining, ah yes, that would be so good for me

.

Anyone in the Toronto area know of a place where I may acquire a cloak and what the price may be?

I already have a kick ass quality cape, so that's OK.

I want a Routefinder. You know, one of these:

Now they're being dropped. I will stick a door on the back, and rip up the upsatris sets to turn it into a functional camper van (leaving the ground floor untouched)

Then I''ll take it to festivals and across Asia.
And the first person to do a Cliff Richard impression will be shot.

Failiong that, I want a phone box:

To put in my hallway.

Or a replica of the Ravens' cage from London Zoo, which I can't find a picture of. Victorian gothic, anyway.
That, I will use as a minbar, or a dungeon.
Probably both.
