If we wanted to keep this product really simplistic, we’d simply tell you that the Musucbags are sleeping bags that have arms and legs. We wouldn’t tell you that the wearing the Musucbag you can withstand temperatures of -13°C, we wouldn’t tell you that the suit lining is made from soft-touch nylon and padded with uprated Polyester Hollow Fibre Bonded filling (fancy eh?) and we certainly wouldn’t tell you that in comparison to the Selk bag which you may have heard of, this is the Ferrari of wearable sleeping bags.

If you have ever wanted to reenact some of your favourite star wars jedi movie moments yet had just a little too much self respect to go and actually buy yourself the costume to wear around the house, this is what you have been looking for. Reenact away safe in the knowledge that if anybody witnesses, you retort “just got out of the bath, with you in a moment…” heh heh heh. “When 900 years old, you reach… Look as good, you will not.”, frankly Yoda should have bought himself this bathrobe and look good he would have.

Whilst we appreciate the super fine detailing that has gone into crafting such a sweet looking RC car, it isn’t what we absolutely love about the Rapid RC Racing Car. Whilst we love that these cars are so small you can race them in confined spaces where normal RC cars wouldn’t be able to manoeuvre, that’s not what we absolutely love about the Rapid RC Racing Car either. We do like the headlights that come on during operation making racing in the dark a blast, but again it isn’t the one true thing that we absolutely love.

Imagine if you will, you are sitting in your office and one of your beloved and very well respected colleagues comes up with yet another truly stupid idea. You have two ways of responding, nod along whilst thinking “this is never going to work” or doing what we’d all love to do in our every day lives and hit the big red X button letting them know that they really are a dimwit and are wasting your time.
