Straight to us from the ‘what are they thinking?‘ department is this cute looking little Sound Effect Drum Machine Wallet which plays one of five drum beats every time you open it. So let’s get this straight, you’re trying to conduct your private financial transaction at a quiet neighborhood cash machine, and this thing will start up with a l33t drum lick when you want to get your credit card out?

Have you ever wondered how far all this marketing malarky can go? How weird and mind-boggling? Yeah we have too. We thought the Pet Rock was pretty much the state of the art actually, until we happened across this little beauty recently.

You don’t get weirder than Japan sometimes, especially when it comes to producing totally logical products which are just crazy. Well this new idea may not be crazy, and it definitely is logical, but we’re still not sure whether it’s serious or not.
