[BB-8 Driud By Sphero](http://www.sphero.com/starwars) __$150__ | The first time you saw this droid in the new *star wars* trailer, you probably thought it was cool but physically impossible. Well, here’s proof it works. This app-controlled bot is a fully shrunk-down version of the onscreen star—the perfect plaything to keep you occupied until *the force awakens* hits theaters.

[12-inch borough furnace braising skillet](http://boroughfurnace.com/) __$320__ | This isn’t your grandmother’s cast-iron pan, unless Grammy ran her own metal-casting workshop. Borough Furnace’s handcrafted skillet is made from recycled iron and arrives preseasoned with flax oil. The slanted sides make it easy to slip a spatula under Nonna’s meat loaf.

[Edyn Garden Sensor](https://edyn.com/) __$100__ | Plant this sunny-looking solar-powered stake in the ground to collect data on soil temperature, humidity, and nutrients—essential information for all gardeners, new or seasoned. But the device, designed by Yves Béhar’s Fuseproject, is much more than a stylish dirt-o-meter. A companion app tells you exactly what, when, and where to plant. So long, brown thumb.

[Tag Heuer Carrera Calibre 18](http://www.tagheuer.com/int-en/luxury-watches/carrera/carrera-calibre-18automatic-chronographglassbox39mm-silver-steel-bracelet) __$5,450__ | Here’s a watch you don’t need to recharge every night—the automatic movement winds it as you wear it. The sapphire-topped, polished-steel 39-mm case houses a dual-dial chronograph that’s designed to be read easily at a glance. The Carrera is made for driving and is named for the famed Carrera Panamericana auto race. It’s the perfect timepiece to strap on when you take your Alfa Romeo out on the twisties.
Bryan Edwards05wired-wishlist-2015-obsess-double-zero-chair
[Double Zero Chair for Moroso](http://www.moroso.it/) __$4,980__ | David Adjaye, architect of the Smithsonian’s National Museum of African-American History and Culture in Washington, DC, crafted this geometric chair out of little more than a pretzeled gold frame and two circular cushions. The sum, however, is way more than its parts: The Double Zero seater is a modern expression of 1970s art deco cool.
Bryan Edwards06wired-wishlist-2015-obsess-robot-nutcracker
[Robot Nut Cracker](http://www.suck.uk.com/products/robot-nut-cracker/) __$30__ | Anthropomorphic nutcrackers, once guarding only holiday tabletop displays, can now be a perennial cocktail-party fixture. This Pixar-sweet version harks back to the tin-toy windup robots that came out of Japan in the 1950s and ’60s. It pairs well with walnuts and old-fashioneds.
Bryan Edwards07wired-wishlist-2015-obsess-tetris-cushions
[Tetris 3-D Cushions](http://www.thinkgeek.com/product/2144/) __$100__ | Long before *Candy Crush* existed, Tetris taught us what it was like to surrender all free time to a game. The digital tile puzzler has transcended the screen and entered the third dimension in the form of plush cushions. Like the real thing, the pillows are endlessly reconfigurable. Unlike the real thing, they’ll keep you off your toes, not on them.

[Mad Catz L.Y.N.X. 9 Mobile Hybrid Controller](http://madcatz.com/lynx-9/) __$300__ | Now you can do your gaming somewhere other than your parents’ basement: mad catz’s newest controller works with any bluetooth-enabled windows pc, but it also connects directly to android devices. Spring-loaded grips can attach it to your phone or tablet. Take this catz anywhere—it folds up small enough to fit in your pocket.
Bryan Edwards09wired-wishlist-2015-obsess-parrot-drone
[Parrot Airborne Cargo Drone](http://www.parrot.com/usa/products/airborne-cargo-drone/) __$99__ | Not all flying drones are $1,000 behemoths. Parrot’s tiny Airborne Cargo flier is small enough to fit in your hand. Piloting is remarkably easy: The copter automatically takes off or lands with a single tap of the smartphone app. The Lego-compliant top lets you take your mini-fig for a spin. The Parrot shoots video too—just don’t try for a close-up of the cat. (We learned the hard way.)

[Bionic Bird](http://www.mybionicbird.com/) __$135__ | Your parents played with paper gliders. You played with a windup bird with flapping mechanical wings. Your kids can have the Bionic Bird: a Bluetooth-connected drone dressed up as an avian creature. The 9-gram barnstormer goes where your smartphone tells it to and can soar for up to 300 feet.
