For those who have everything: Legos for adults

For any grown-up who has ever fantasized about Legos as big as cinder blocks, EverBlocks ($125) are "a dream come true," said Liz Stinson at Wired. Made of polypropylene and available in 14 colors, these modular building blocks can be used to build fully functioning furniture, dividing walls, and even stand-alone single-story structures. Founded by a New York City entrepreneur, EverBlock Systems sells three sizes of blocks so far, plus flat finishing caps, with a full-size block weighing 2 pounds and measuring 1 foot in length. Channels running through each block allow you to thread power cables or LED lights through any structure you devise.
