Laser "chess"

A neat high tech strategy game with simple rules:

There are four types of playing pieces, and two of them have mirrors. Game play is simple, and easy to learn, as there are only 3 movement choices. The goal is to eliminate your opponent's Pharaoh. And, you eliminate the Pharaoh just like they did in olden times - by firing a red laser! Each side of the board is equipped with its own laser, which you press after your turn. The laser bounces from mirror to mirror (always shooting off at a 90 degree angle). If the laser hits any piece on a non-reflective surface, that piece is removed from play. If you eliminate your opponent's Pharaoh, you win. If you eliminate your own Pharaoh, you will be mocked for all time.

Radio Controlled UFO

The X-UFO by SilverLit  looks pretty cool:

It has a range of 100m indoors or outside in clam conditions. One red and three blue flashing LED lights indicate when the gyro is up to to speed and helps orientation. The lights also make it look like a real UFO, especially when flown in the dark. The UFO is factory assembled and Ready To Fly and comes with a four channel proportional radio control that allows three dimensional control; take off, hover, descend, spin left, spin right, pitch forward, pitch backward, pitch left, pitch right.
