They sell stripped down miniature versions of those 3D orbs at walgreens.  The kids love them.

Yeah, my kids have had those things... bought them for a couple bucks from a street vendor.  Neat little things for the cost.

I'm surprised none of those people walking by tries to touch that orb and get their hand whacked off.
