Japan’s Ginza Tanaka and Toymaker Bandai Co. recently launched a 5 inch solid platinum figurine of Japan’s famous animated robot character - “Gundam.” He weighs a wopping 45 ounces and melted down he’d be worth a crazy $41,468!

It’s the future of travel and a step closer to the Hover Boards we all dreamt about from Back to The Future! You can now get your hands on these hover scooters for the modest price of $16999.95 (US).

It’s a muscle pumped 1969 Dodge Charger made famous by the 80’s hit TV show The Dukes of Hazard and I just became the most expensive car ever sold, and it went on Ebay! In fact it actually beat the Ebay record for most expensive sold, easily beating a $4.9m private jet.
The lucky ex-owner was none other than one of the original actors John Schneider who sold the car to finance a new movie he is making. He bought the car 11 years ago for $5000 and spent a huge $100,000 restoring it. It had all the cast’s signatures on it and believe it or not it was never used on the original show?!
Unfortunately however the bidder has dropped out surprise surprise… Ebay sort it out!
