01-MG-5284
[](http://stag-komodo.wired.com/underwire/tag/comic-con-2010/)SAN DIEGO -- Get ready to seriously spoil your inner child, because Comic-Con International is here and so are the exclusive toys. This year's limited-edition offerings range from a gigantic plush doll to a bobblehead of a serial killer, a fanboy action figure, and the perfect Christmas gift for your stingy boss. These made our heads spin as we tried our best to not check out the *Hawaii Five-0* hula girls. __Above:__ Convention Nerd --------------- Who can turn down an action figure that comes with a Magical Unicorn Mayonnaise Jar accessory? Scientists in credibility-boosting white lab coats have proven time and again that you can't, so don't bother trying. This *Robot Chicken* Convention Nerd is the perfect meta souvenir from this year's SDCC. $20. Available at the Entertainment Earth booth (No. 2343). *Photo: Jon Snyder/Wired.com*
02Giant Buddha Plush
Giant Buddha Plush ------------------ If you've always wanted a child, but are afraid of all the hassle, buy this 2-foot-high Buddha Karo plush doll instead. People may stare at you oddly when you put it in a baby carriage and wheel it around the mall, but that momentary awkwardness is worth not ever having to feed it, change its diapers or pay for it to drop out of college. $125. Available at Camilla d'Errico's booth (No. 4920). *Photo: Jon Snyder/Wired.com*
03Devil Shaky Bacon
Devil Shaky Bacon ----------------- You can never have too much bacon, and *Mr. Toast* creator Dan Goodsell proves it with this SDCC exclusive Devil Shaky Bacon plush toy. So cute and yummy-looking that you can either snuggle up with it or starve yourself for two weeks and then try to eat it during a hallucinatory breakdown. $10. Available at Goodsell's booth (No. 4831). *Photo: Jon Snyder/Wired.com*
04Hello Kitty Nerd Flash Drive
Hello Kitty Nerd Flash Drive ---------------------------- Get your geek on with this Hello Kitty Nerd Mimobot. It comes in 2-GB, 4-GB, 8-GB and 16-GB sizes; all models will prove to the world once and for all that no one can come close to competing with your awe-inspiring nerdiness. $25 to $80. Available at the Mimoco booths (Nos. 4938 and 2913). *Photo: Jon Snyder/Wired.com*
05Owen Lars Action Figure
Owen Lars Action Figure ----------------------- Luke's stepfather finally gets the respect he deserves in this two-pack with Darth Maul and the *Visionaries* comic book. Calling Owen Lars a visionary may be a bit of a stretch, but now you can finally play out that what-if scenario between a double-bladed lightsaber-wielder and a moisture farmer. $15. Available at the Hasbro booth (No. 3329). *Photo: Jon Snyder/Wired.com*
06Dexter Bobblehead
Dexter Bobblehead ----------------- He's a blood-spatter expert. He's a surrogate dad. He's a serial killer. He's Dexter. America's favorite killer of killers arrives at this year's Con immortalized as a bobblehead. Pick up one of these wobbly wonders in anticipation of the show's fifth season. $15. Available at the Entertainment Earth booth (No. 2343). *Photo: Jon Snyder/Wired.com*
07Tron Bearbrick
Tron Bearbrick -------------- Getting super psyched for *Tron: Legacy*? Sadly, these circuit-riddled electric pink Tron Bearbricks we found to help sooth our anticipation are sold out. They were $12 at the Action Figure Xpress booth (No. 4045). *Photo: Jon Snyder/Wired.com*
08Injection Machine
Injection Machine ----------------- No, this isn't a replica of the devices that the government uses to secretly infuse our bodies with nanotech spies so they can track our every movement, so stop being so paranoid. This is a 1/60th-scale model of the injection machines that Bandai uses to make its models. Just to reiterate: It will *not* inject you with nanotech spies while you're asleep. $8. Available at the Bluefin booth (No. 3449). *Photo: Jon Snyder/Wired.com*
09-MG-5280
Mr. Burns Christmas Ornament ---------------------------- If you're trying to find the perfect Christmas gift for your boss -- one that says loudly and clearly, "A fruit basket does not a bonus make, you greedy bastard" -- you need look no further. This *Simpsons* Mr. Burns ornament will communicate your feelings in a polite and totally deniable manner. (We are not responsible if this gift gets you fired or otherwise disciplined). Available at the Hallmark booth (No. 2913H). *Photo: Jon Snyder/Wired.com*
10Ozomahtli Figure
Ozomahtli Figure ---------------- Call us crazy, but we have a soft spot for tripped-out vinyl figures of Aztec monkey gods. This Ozomahtli figure from Jesse Hernandez would make a great addition to your desk at work, or to the elaborate monkey god shrine you have set up in your basement. Price unknown. Available at the Dragatomi booth (No. 3848). *Photo: Jon Snyder/Wired.com*
11District 9
*District 9* Gun ---------------- This stunning scale replica of *District 9*'s Arc Generator is an impressive piece of work that looks like it could take down several battalions. The package notes: "Unless your genetic makeup is part prawn, you cannot power up or fire this gun." So much for our weekend plans. $500. Available at the Weta booth (No. 2615). __See Also:__ - [Giant Galactus Is Hasbro's Biggest Comic-Con Exclusive](http://stag-komodo.wired.com/underwire/2010/07/hasbro-comic-con/) - [Giveaway: Plastic Man Stars in Mattel's Comic-Con Prize Pack](http://stag-komodo.wired.com/underwire/2010/07/giveaway-plastic-man/) - [*Tron: Legacy* Action Figure Lights Up, Talks](http://stag-komodo.wired.com/underwire/2010/07/tron-legacy-action-figure/) *Photo: Jon Snyder/Wired.com*
