Dino_stapleremoverIt has been awhile since our last edition of the Wacky Weekend Gadget Roundup, so here’s another round. As usual we cover the cool, the weird, the wacky, the bizarre, and the ““who thought that up” gadgets that we uncover in our daily viewing of the web. Of course with Halloween approaching we’ve got a few that speak (or shreak) in a spooky vein, and some of the treats even have a few tricks up their sleeve. Hope you enjoy the silliness that follows.

 

 

How’s this for greeting all those trick or treaters? the Robotic Snap-O-Lantern is a do-it-yourselfer’s delight. You can check out a video of this in action at SlashGear.

If you’re a Swiss Army Knife fan, then this giant version, which contains every tool (a total of 85) they’ve ever crammed into a package might be for you. Weighing in at just about 3lbs, it will cost you $1000. It is being sold to commemorate 100 Years of Innovation by Wenger, the maker of the Swiss Army Knife. ThinkGeek via BoingBoing Gadgets.
