newVideoPlayer(“applexmas_giz.flv”, 475, 286);Apple’s gone and turned good old PC/Mac representatives John Hodgman and Justin Long into claymation figures, just like the ones you remember from those sweet Rankin/Bass Christmas specials from back in the day. Sure, these ads are starting to wear a little thin, but this is pretty great. And I appreciate that Justin Long looks like even more of a dork in claymation form while John Hodgman just looks funnier and more likable. It just needs some Burl Ives and it would be perfect.

There is something a little bizarre about the idea of flying a kite indoors —but in reality, that characteristic makes the BioKite ideal for the disabled.Thanks to a super aerodynamic structure and extreme light weight of only 10 grams, the BioKite can fly in completely windless environments. It can also be accurately controlled using the fishing rod and reel attachment. Just don’t expect this sort of cutting-edge kite technology to come cheap. Available for 11,000 Yen or $100.

Our good friend Ramon of Samus and Zelda Wii mod fame has outdone himself again. This time he’s created a Rockstar-themed mod especially for the guys at Rockstar, complete with a clear coating, laser-cut hand-polished Rockstar emblem, and LED lights. Hit the jump for a gigantic gallery of every single detail of this thing. And if we were going to buy a Wii this Christmas, we’d rather have one of his Wiis or no Wii at all.
