I want a pac-man-shaped toilet, that makes the "wah-wah-wah-wah bloip!" sound when you flush.  :D

There was a Pac Man toilet seat made in the 80's. Not surprisingly, its pretty rare and they go pretty high on ebay.
My buddy just gave me a Pac Man light switch cover that he snagged at some yard sale or something. I don't even like maze games other than Wizard of Wor, but its still a nice piece of gameroom memorabilia.

One of the coolest things I ever saw was a Ms. Pac-Man chair.  It was just a round puffy bag like thing in bright yellow with the inside being the inside of Ms. Pac-Man's mouth.  You basically were sitting on her tongue.  They also had one for Pac-Man, and a smaller chair for Jr. Pac-Man.  I always thought it would be a cool thing to have for a game room.
