Desk toys (or executive toys as they’re sometimes potentially referred to) are the perfect example of simplicity: It doesn’t need to have 15 bells and 14 whistles to be cool - and usually I’m all for that.
That said, this transformer/miniature fan we spotted on Giz looks a little more complicated than your average desk toy. The solar-powered toy transforms into six different states, all of them providing you with a cool breeze to keep you from getting all hot under the white-collar.
I think my favorite is the boat and if you're into flat-pack DIY furniture then this is right up your alley. You can pick one up at Red5 by clicking here.

Am I the only one that saw that last picture and thought it looked like it was putting up some kind of force field or focusing crystal to harness a laser beam? I need a desktop toy that I can use to fry my co-workers.

Neat stuff.
when i read the headlin i thought it was another one of those cool little transformers gadgets but this is cool to. I was really hopping for faggetron that way my gf can get another faggetron for her collection (at least it not hello kitty). by the way have you guys checked this website out http://www.kittyhell.com/ i feel for this guy.
Anyone know of a US etailer where you can buy this?
so it uses solar power to activate the fan?
Or where does it store/send the elctricity to?
It would indeed be nice to have either a low rotating fan, or a desktop light. Perhaps even an internal battery it stores the energy to
