After 22 and a half hours of building, Bole Brick’s 4,508-piece kit became a remarkably convincing 1:8 recreation of Brian O’Conner’s Toyota Supra—complete with ahem, its movie livery, a 2JZ-GTE engine mini build, working gearbox, and custom lighting.
Foldable phones may be stealing the small-tablet spotlight, but OPPO’s Pad Mini makes a strong case for keeping the devices separate. Its compact body houses an 8.8-inch 144 Hz OLED display, Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 power, an 8,000 mAh battery, and 67 W charging.
Not every Galaxy Book needs an AMOLED display or top-tier processor. Samsung’s 14-inch Galaxy Book6 targets everyday users with up to 25 hours of battery life, practical ports, Galaxy AI, and cross-device features, though its non-backlit keyboard reveals where some savings were made.
If the Galaxy S26 and S26+ price hikes have you reconsidering your upgrade, Samsung has a slightly less painful option. The Galaxy S26 FE brings an Exynos 2500 chip, a 120 Hz AMOLED display, upgraded camera tricks, 45 W charging, and seven years of software support.
IKEA has not announced an Xbox speaker, but the BADKRUKA could wander into a gaming setup unnoticed. The compact box combines 25 W of output with Bluetooth, optical and AUX connections, stereo pairing, Spotify Tap, and a perforated grille that looks strangely familiar.
Michael Knight’s famous Pontiac Firebird Trans Am has joined Kyosho’s beginner-friendly First MINI-Z range. This 1/28-scale K.I.T.T. packs the sweeping red scanner, two driving modes, a 25-meter control range, and support for up to 12 cars at once, making it ready for miniature pursuits across the living room.
Bringing home a dinosaur usually requires questionable genetics and a very understanding insurance company. Mattel offers a safer route with a 1:1-scale Aquilops ‘Dolores’ from Jurassic World: Rebirth, featuring real-feel material, glass eyes, articulated limbs, and a wire-posable tail in a size small enough to perch on your shoulder.
Megalodons did not hatch from giant external eggs, but Spin Master is not letting biology spoil the spectacle. Add water to the reusable tank and watch it fizz red as a 16-inch prehistoric shark bursts free with glowing eyes, roaring sounds, chomping jaws, and interactive games.
Optimus Prime started the Transformers Icons line by turning into the Autobot emblem, so Megatron was the obvious next move. The 6.75-inch figure transforms into the Decepticon logo in 27 steps, giving the faction leader a display-ready alternate mode that makes far more sense than a pistol.
The Crawleys are moving into a 4,711-piece residence with removable floors, 13 familiar faces, and enough period detail to keep both aristocrats and servants occupied. LEGO Ideas Downton Abbey recreates Highclere Castle from its grand dining room upstairs to the bustling kitchen below.
Marantz has given the classic mini hi-fi system a thoroughly modern job description. The MCR 60n DAB spins CDs, streams high-resolution music, welcomes a turntable, receives DAB/FM radio, and handles TV sound through HDMI eARC, all while asking you to supply only the speakers.
MiniLED televisions are not usually built to disappear against a wall. Skyworth’s A8H pairs SQD color technology with an ultra-short optical design, allowing the 85-inch model to fit 3,600 dimming zones, 5,500-nit peak brightness, and a 270 W Harman sound system into a body just 3.9 cm (1.54 in) thick.
