I almost want this, but not quite. What do you guys think? Too nerdy for you? Obviously this is a silly little toy for grown ups that serves little practical purpose (unless you're a techno DJ, I guess).

So here's my question. Would -you- get something like this? Or has there every been something comparably "uber nerd" that you just had to have like a "Yoda" shaped backpack or whatnot?

I think it's really cool, but it's not for me. Get me a Ranger Hoodie and ill hang out with the guy who has this one.

Edit: I mean one that makes arrow shooting sounds that would be BA.

I'd rather buy one of those Assassin's Creed hoodies, and I'd sooner shoot myself than wear one of those.

So I guess what I am trying to say is...that is a cool thing but ultimately stupid and a waste of money.

I honestly wasn't sure what to expect from the description. I thought it was going to be a hoodie with specific areas for computer parts like hardrives and such and I was going to say that I definitely would not buy it.

Then I watched the video and while I still wouldn't buy it, I gotta admit that it made my inner kid happy.

Looks pretty cool, but not a lot of variation. Suppose it would have novelty value if someone went clubbing. Would look good on a dance floor, or even a costume for a fancy dress night out. One thing for sure, the blokes spell casting looks a little Kung Fu'ish. Anybody have any idea of what the hoody would cost?

Nerdy or not, this is pointless and ridiculous. This should only appeal to a 8-10 years old; it's disconcerting that's it's being marketed for adults.

Why is it disconcerting. Looks like a bit of harmless fun. Adults have fun too you know!

Sure, but it's still disconcerting for something as childish to appeal to adults.

I wouldn't even wear this if my nonexistent partner wanted to commit various unspoken deeds of a potential kinky variety.

I wouldn't refuse if offered one as a gift.

And while It might be a little awkward to have one of the sound effects go off if you're in a grocery store, it's quite nifty.

Not even if he wore a nonexistent loincloth?
