Image3D Custom Slide Reel And Viewer
The Fisher Price View-Master is pretty much an icon of our childhoods; that unmistakable chunky red plastic device transported us to a fantasy world by enveloping our 120-degree vision span in various Disney scenes and comic-book panels. Did your 6-year-old self ever imagine she could be the subject in these spellbinding slides? Image3D offers the plastic viewing device plus a service to build custom slide reels containing your seven favorite digital photos for $29.95.

Lomo’Instant Camera
Before there was Instagram, there were instant-film cameras. Lomography, the company that’s brought you all sorts of affordable, artistic twists on 35mm film cameras, is crowdfunding a new instant-film camera to bring you Instagram-style filtered photos IRL. The camera uses widely available Fuji Instax Mini film and offers color filters, fisheye lenses, and the ability to shoot in manual mode to control depth-of-field and shutter speed. A pledge of $69 or more to Lomo’s Kickstarter gets you the earliest edition of the camera, which has an estimated delivery date of November 2014.

Polaroid Socialmatic Camera
Remember taking Polaroids with your friends and fighting over who would keep the lone image? Polaroid, whose early-’80s OneStep Land Camera inspired Instagram’s app icon, will bring its Socialmatic instant camera to the market in fall 2014. The slim-line, square device marries old and new photo-sharing technology in a totally rad way — the camera uses Polaroid’s ZINK® Zero Ink® film, and each camera comes with a unique QR code to brand your photos and help gain new followers. Like your favorite smartphone, the Socialmatic comes with both front- and rear-facing cameras, in 14- and two-megapixel resolutions, respectively. The 4.5-inch touchscreen LCD display runs on Android OS and has built-in wifi, so you can share your snaps to social media in an instant — no more arguing about whose mirror the pic will be tacked to.

Steampunk Accessories
Steampunk is arguably the purest expression of retrofuturism in today’s culture. It’s a fashion and a lifestyle that combines Victorian-era clothes like corsets, hoop-skirts, and men’s formalwear with Mad Max post-apocalypse, sci-fi influenced technology that is part retro, part cutting-edge, and totally DIY. For example, we once saw steampunk writer Thomas Willeford control a PowerPoint presentation with his customized navigator’s typewriter-key wrist guard. If corsets and soldering aren’t your thing, accessories are a great way to participate in this fun, funky style. We recommend cruising Etsy for pendants made from old watches, typewriter keys repurposed as rings and more.

The Tron Lambo
1982’s Tron and its 2010 sequel imagined high-speed action in a virtual world in which light cycles created mesmerizing trails of neon. Supercar enthusiast Nasser Al-Thani decided to bring Tron’s light show off the grid and into reality. This half-million dollar Lamborghini Aventador was modded by the billionaire and member of Qatar’s ruling family. After making quite a scene in London, the drool-worthy custom ride was spotted during this year’s Cannes Film Festival. If neon-orange and purple aren’t your thing, perhaps the matte-black Aventador will win your heart on the big screen in another sci-fi reboot, Transformers: Age Of Extinction.
