"Do not put them in the concourses of warm, wet, and strong light."

Isn't wet light a brand of condom?

[meeee @ Jan 12th 2009 7:03AM]

"support hot inserting and drawing, once insert it, use it."


O.O


do it

[(01) @ Jan 14th 2009 8:40PM]

Are we talking about Gremlins here?

[Justin Baillargeon @ Jan 11th 2009 9:48PM]

Looks like the original S controller for the Xbox rebranded with some of that additional dragon fluff

[Matthew C @ Jan 12th 2009 1:10AM]

You mean rebranded with some added awesome!

[rjupiter @ Jan 11th 2009 9:51PM]

how many blurry pictures of that thing do you need?

[Riley @ Jan 12th 2009 3:31AM]

umm, more?

[ZSX @ Jan 12th 2009 3:49AM]

Picture 7 is just, well, DIIIIIRRRRTY...

[Alex @ Jan 13th 2009 1:50AM]

Yes. Pic 7 is describing the part "more excited in the game"

[User7 @ Jan 11th 2009 9:51PM]

Hmm 29 pictures, someone at Engadget likes this.

[Neil @ Jan 11th 2009 10:49PM]

i don't know why i laughed at this comment;
but it wouldn't be hard to believe.

[michaelslevin11 @ Jan 11th 2009 9:51PM]

so it doesnt ACTUALLY breathe fire?

:'(

[glenskey @ Jan 11th 2009 11:51PM]

no. but if you bothered to read that anectode on the packaging, it will pretty much enslave us all.. sigh; sounds like an ipod...

[Ian @ Jan 11th 2009 9:53PM]

damn someone used a really bad translator on those instructions

[Ian Whelan (JOIN BAND!) @ Jan 11th 2009 10:00PM]

company' sproduct

[Ian Whelan (JOIN BAND!) @ Jan 11th 2009 10:01PM]

By the way, I like your name.

[maveric101 @ Jan 11th 2009 10:02PM]

good thing 'awesome' is a universal language :)

[Aguiluz @ Jan 11th 2009 10:06PM]

The manual is hilarious. XD

Dr. Ashen should review this.

[webon @ Jan 11th 2009 10:06PM]

WTF

[Anthony-E @ Jan 11th 2009 10:07PM]

You can buy it on DealExtreme. SKU number 4998.

$27.38. lol I first saw this while browsing DealExtreme a few months back.

[versionII @ Jan 11th 2009 10:20PM]

WHY?!

[CleverEndeavor @ Jan 11th 2009 10:22PM]

I WANNA!

[CleverEndeavor @ Jan 11th 2009 10:25PM]

That looks almost too awesome..
Although it doesn't look like its made for xbox 360 (black and white buttons, no bumpers) isn't it a little too late to come out with this people?
its still awesome though...

[Jarrod @ Jan 11th 2009 10:26PM]

I'm going to go with no

[gordo1111 @ Jan 11th 2009 10:31PM]

It looks like a 360 controller.

[thebackdrifter @ Jan 11th 2009 10:37PM]

"Disconnect the product USB prick, insert USB portal into your computer USB portal"

what is a USB prick?

[Greg Mcp @ Jan 11th 2009 11:09PM]

Someone who makes fun of Firewire.

[Thunda Chunky @ Jan 11th 2009 11:25PM]

LMAO!!! I automatically thought of my girlfriends mom

[Kali4 @ Jan 12th 2009 2:06PM]

Stop calling me a prick!

[auricom @ Jan 13th 2009 7:13AM]

Kinda Chunky:
is her name Stacy?

[Krazy_Calvin @ Jan 11th 2009 10:42PM]

Man... I cant buy this because I'm constantly surrounded by concourses of warm, wet and strong light...

[Neil @ Jan 11th 2009 10:52PM]

rofl.

[Tony @ Jan 11th 2009 10:55PM]

WooowWW!! Really Cool Toy ! I wanaa!!

[Circs @ Jan 11th 2009 11:34PM]

Can we get a review posted?

Seriously I'd like to know if it's actually usable.

[DssTrainer @ Jan 11th 2009 11:14PM]

Yea.. um.. this is ooooold hat. It's been at dealextreme for over a year
http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.4998

Please try to bring us "NEWs" engadget

[Dhelle @ Jan 11th 2009 11:29PM]

You should have submitted the link to engadget a year a ago so I could have known it earlier. :-)

[shadow024 @ Jan 11th 2009 11:28PM]

This is a blog! They dont always have to post news, jeez!

[Matthew C @ Jan 12th 2009 1:12AM]

Better now than never. This made my night

[DssTrainer @ Jan 12th 2009 1:37AM]

Ya I guess I cna't blame engadget. Tho to show up at this years CES with last years product... thats a sign that the company has only one trick up their sleeves. Prepare for more dragon stuff :P

[Tankyu @ Jan 11th 2009 11:45PM]

"Do not make liquid and other different things into the products."

That was the dealbreaker for me.

[fucter @ Jan 11th 2009 11:49PM]

same here, i constantly make liquid into the products

[Sameer Surampalli @ Jan 11th 2009 11:53PM]

This would be more impressive if it actually could breathe fire. That'd make for some fiery gaming. This would also be a great idea for a lighter.

[superhobo @ Jan 12th 2009 12:16AM]

Who doesn't want a USB powered dragon?

[DJ Wooldridge @ Jan 12th 2009 12:59AM]

"Do not make liquid and other different things into the products."

Guess the folks at "will it blend" will not be buying this!

[mattbates @ Jan 12th 2009 1:42AM]

I like that I had to read a horribly translated and spelled manual to learn what "mucilaginous" and "larruping" mean. But I'm a little leery of a bellowing picture.

[squeevi82 @ Jan 12th 2009 2:10AM]

LOL at picture #7! It looks like the dragon is screaming with pleasure, and the thumb sticks look like two erect nipples, lol!!... Am I allowed to say that here?
