Inhabitat points us to the Early Rider &#8211; a bike designed by Andy Loveland who set out to design a stabilizer-free bike that he would admire and his son would love. Loveland says his company Early Rider combines British innovation with West Coast style and world leading manufacturing. The brand also sells fashion to wear with their &#8216;Classic&#8217; bike.

Musician Aj Pyatak, aka Gannon modifies old toys and electronic gadgets into mutant retro-futuristic musical instruments. He&#8217;s taken everything from an old Atari video game cartridge to vintage toy keyboards and warped their insides to pull out all new noisy electronic sounds. This process is commonly known as circuit bending.
MAKE brings news of one of Gannon&#8217;s fantastic creations, the Speak n&#8217; Spellbinder. It&#8217;s a mash up of a Speak and Spell and a Rock Band Guitar controller. Watch the Speak n&#8217;Spellbinder in action below, and head over to Gannon&#8217;s site to learn more about all of his amazing devices.

Artist and medical student Satre Stuelke started the Radiology Art Project in the summer of 2007, and has since compiled a collection of beautiful views of the hidden world inside of objects. Using CT scanners and X-ray machines, he&#8217;s captured the unknown world behind everyday things including toys, food and electronics.

Frantz Lasome is working on an augmented reality toy concept that takes make-believe and lays it out in front of your eyes. His project lets kids use their old toys as game pieces and controls in an virtual world. Players battle it out, assigning weapon functions to their real world toys, and can watch the virtual action through special glasses. Though it seems like a fantastic toy, you have to wonder how immersion in an augmented world will effect kid&#8217;s developing minds.

Like a Netflix for toys, Baby Plays is a subscription service that will send you a set number of toys on a monthly or bi-monthly basis. The basic plan sends out 5 different toys for babies and children to play with every 60 days for $26.99. And at the top end, you can get  10 toys every 30 days for $64.99.
The service carries a variety of toys, including more educational fare for children up to age 5. Similar to Netflix, you can hold on to any of the toys for as long as you want, which just reduces the number [...]]]></description>

David Horvath&#8217;s Uglydolls have taken the leap from fuzzy stuffed animal-type-thing to full on collectible action figure. The colorful plastic toys stand 3 inches tall and come in 12 different characters per series. While dolls are sold separately for $8 a piece, cases (sold for $96) include one of each, and a special one in four sets includes a rarer, red-toothed Wedgehead figure. You can order your action Uglydoll at the official shop of Uglydoll online before it hits toy stores around the U.S.

It&#8217;s a plastic creature, in the form of a panda or bumblebee or three-eyed monster, that transfers social networking information via &#8216;high-fives&#8217; (and RFID). After making new friends face-to-face, kids can bust out their RFID-enabled keychains and instantly exchange their online identity details through a poken-to-poken high five. After the exchange, users then connect their toy to a computer via USB, where they can download the info onto poken&#8217;s database, which helps them manage and distribute the new data on the user&#8217;s social networking [...]]]></description>
