Hoto's Designey Flashlight Duo
Tool manufacturer Hoto continues to offer a vision of original Chinese industrial design. Their Flashlight Duo can be used handheld, with the expected reflector on the end.
But rotating the selector also lets you use the light on the side, or in a third mode where the end reflector flickers like a candle (presumably for camping ambiance). There's a built-in spring-loaded hanging hook.
One side is also magnetic. Here's a demonstration of the various modes: These run $60.

LEGO Goes Hi-Tech with Smart Bricks
LEGO might've been the last bastion of popular analog toys. Alas, even they couldn't fight off technology forever.
The company has announced their new Smart Bricks, which are no longer a monolithic piece of ABS. Instead they each contain a chip, an accelerometer, sensors for sound and light, LEDs, and even a miniature speaker.
The user charges the bricks wirelessly, using a dedicated pad from LEGO, and they'll be rolled out within new Star Wars LEGO sets. As for "Why," the bricks are part of LEGO's new Smart Play system.

Crowdfunding Smash: An Overdesigned Zipper Lock
More proof that in this digital age, people are desperately craving physical objects they can manipulate. EDC brand Titaner has designed this Trident , a talisman-like zipper lock: The Trident is fiddly to open—and that's exactly the point.
The idea is that pickpockets will be too flummoxed to figure out how to quickly get it open. To lock it, you insert this key-like bit, and the two arms won't open.
To unlock it, you press on the ruby thing and pull on the key. There's a second level of locking, where after you insert the key, you slide an additional switch on the side.
