Physically fit Star Wars fanatics may like their own skin tight costumes. You too could be Chewie, Boba, or Darth (Vader or Maul).

Lastly, a yodeling pickle will sure to be a surprise gift. A yodeling pickle? Yup, a yodelling pickle. Why? I don’t know, but Amazon sells this, and it rates at 4 stars after 241 ratings. It’s just one of those gifts that will amaze its recipient.

Naughty or nice, this FJ Cruiser is for you!

Not looking for a smart smoke detector? How about a smart watch like the popular Pebble? I helped kickstart this project and love the utility of this evolving device. It’s a great second screen that’s getting better and better.

Still too technologically mundane? Then try to get ahold of Starpath. Apply this luminous material to your driveway, and you’ll have a spectacle of science.

I know “expresso” is one of those mistakes you commonly hear people say instead of espresso. But as a gift this year, why not give an express way of making espresso? There’s the popular and moderately priced Nespresso U. From what I’ve learned, the U and the Aeroccino frother is a killer combo.

If you want to give a coffee addict an even fresher experience, you must look into the Bonaverde Roast-Grind-Brew coffee machine. This Kickstarter project will turn fresh green coffee beans into a fresh cup of coffee. Yes, it roasts the beans then grinds them to brew a cup. While backing this project is done, keep an eye out on the Bonaverde web site to pre-order the machine.

Looking for something more sporty? The Oklahoma Thunder’s Russell Westbrook is designing his own briefs with Kings and Jaxs. How does K&J describe their product line?

Every pair of Kings and Jaxs is built with the little man in mind allowing for ventilation and just the right amount of wiggle room insuring everyday is a happy day in and outside your pants!

For the guys (and gals) who have a penchant for gas, he can now cut one without any repercussions while wearing Shreddies. These high tech undies trap the smell but not the sounds of farts so you can be proud and loud at the same time.

For the gals, a related note. Be sure to get the newer line of Lululemon yoga gear. These updated products will conceal your underwear while holding the halasana.

Even better, for the holidays, you can get a gift tin for your order of four or more magnets. Get green and red magnets or whatever colors you want.

There was the Starbucks steel card nearly one year ago, and shortly, a more limited golden hued metal card will be available for $450 (which includes $400 in Starbucks credit).

5000 steel? Imagine only 1000 gold cards for sale.

Let’s go down the golden checklist for 2013:

• Gold iPhone 5s
• Nike rose gold FuelBand
• JUICIES+ gold cable
• Golden Pop-Tarts
• Zojirushi stainless steel mug (in champagne gold)
• Starbucks golden card (consider yourself blinged)

Lolo can range in meaning from dumb to stupid to downright idiotic. So yeah, YOLO could also mean lolo. Currently available at Macy’s in Hawaii and on sale too.

If you want to bump this up a notch then go for Cards Against Humanity. Same concept but more mature themed. Just a warning, you may need to reference the Urban Dictionary to understand some of the off-color terms.

Technically, Cards Against Humanity is an open sourced game and you can make your own set, but at $25 for a nicely printed, boxed set, it’s probably worth the cost.

Of course, you need to watch the informative Zappos video to understand the features of this sh-t product.

At first, I wasn’t sold. Why would I need an action camera like the GoPro HERO3+? I already have a DSLR, the always-handy iPhone, and even a digital camcorder. Do I really need one more camera?

The answer is simply yes. Use one, and you’ll understand why. First off, it’s tiny and light so carrying it is not a problem. The waterproof housing increases the bulk for the tradeoff of the rugged versatility. Now take the GoPro to the beach, to the pool, into the water, and a whole new world of video and photography is available to you. The pictures and videos are shockingly clear and crisp. Sure, due to the wide angle view of the GoPro lens, you get that fisheye effect, but the GoPro software can compensate if you want.

But never mind that, play with the angles, get a different point of view, capture various perspectives. Have fun with it. That’s the appeal of the GoPro.

There are three versions available – white, silver, and black. The white is the basic model, the silver is mid-level, and black is the best. Recently the silver and black were upgraded to the 3+ version while the white stayed at a non-plussed 3. Oh and the Wifi remote access and control of a GoPro is an eye opener. Use your iPhone to configure and control the GoPro, and even better, download pictures and video from the GoPro to your iPhone over Wifi.

While GoPro Hero prices are fixed everywhere, you can find deals on older GoPro models. For example, Costco (online and in stores) is selling the previous GoPro Hero 3 Silver (no plus) for $239.99 (yes, $10 more in Hawaii).

Once you get a GoPro, go practice your underwater selfie. Capturing a good one is harder than you think.

Normally, I wouldn’t give any credence to something named “Chillax” but after seeing this bean bag in a Costco magazine, I’m a believer. Bean bags are one of my favorite anachronisms, withstanding the trends of time. So the Chillax still has a market, a place in your home, and a spot on this year’s Pulpconnection Gift Guide.

I’m not sure if you can find the Chillax in Hawaii-based Costco locations. Ordering online may be necessary, but just think of the all the chillax-ing you can do during the holidays.

Okay, the shirt is on the pricier side at $35 for men’s (sorry, didn’t check the price on kid sizes). But you won’t (yet) find this design anywhere else. They’re available in green or white and could be limited to stock in hand.

Heinous or holiday, the new sleeved NBA jerseys are coming to pro basketball teams on Christmas day. Along with the short sleeves, these contemporary jerseys feature the big logo front and center and for the NBA, additional advertising space on the sleeves themselves.

Check out the online NBA Store for a selection of sleeved replica jerseys of your favorite players. $110 for adult sizes, $50 for youth sizes, and a more affordable, look-alike shirt for $26 (my favorite is the orange World Peace shirt).

No promises that the extra sleeves will improve your outside shot, but after watching this Jingle Hoops ad, you have to believe they will.

Available on November 21 for $169, this is destined for the informed you who demands tech and style.

I’m not sure if this is a limited item, but it’s a fun throwback to own and wear regardless of the football team’s current fortunes. Makes a special gift for Rainbow fans new and old.

Update: These vintage jerseys are now available at the Rainbowtique stores for $75. Too costly? Then the vintage hat for $27 could be a more affordable option.
