Bagel brownin' Cylon toaster now frakkin' available
No really - it is a toaster
Sitting somewhere in between Red Dwarf's Talkie Toaster and the 7ft tall Cylon Centurion we covered a few weeks back, comes the Comic-Con limited edition Battlestar Galactica Cylon Toaster. Oh yes.
"By your comm-" crunch, crunch, crunch
According to NBC Universal Store, these are one-of-a-kind made specifically for the San Diego Comic-Con. We understand that the toaster actually imprints the image of a Cylon on each side of your freshly browned bread.
The Cylon toaster costs just $65 (£32/€41) and ships on 29 July. Expect to see a few of them on eBay next January when the current series comes to a conclusion.
And while we're on the subject of how images of machines determined to destroy mankind can be incorporated into food, take a look at this little beauty: the Cylon'O'Lantern.
Pumpkin pie, Colonial style

"Well, it should certainly brown your toast in record time - given that you'll be connecting a 110 V appliance to the UK's 240 V mains!".
