NPR's Tiny Desk was taken over by three humanoid aliens — or robots, or maybe even real men in heavy blue makeup — as the Blue Man Group brought their eclectic ambient sounds to the office. The Rube Goldberg of musical acts brought their own Rube Goldberg instruments for 13 of the most unique minutes in the history of the Tiny Desk series.

This one-of-a-kind concept car's real-life debut occurred in 2019 to coincide with the Gran Turismo Championships in Monte Carlo. None would be made for public purchase, but fans could drive the car in the forthcoming Gran Turismo Sport racing game. You can finally bring the car home, albeit in a box small enough to fit in a backpack. Comprising 230 pieces, the LEGO Lamborghini Lambo V12 Vision GT Super Car kit challenges even the most knowledgeable gearheads. With Lamborghini's signature bodywork, an operational cockpit, a functioning hood, a split rear wing, hexagon details on the rims, dual rear tailpipes, Y-shaped taillights, and Gran Turismo logos all over, this is a true collector's item — and could end up being the only way to ever get this car.
This smooth and seductive ultra-male oriental fougère captivates both men and women alike. Inspired by the vibrant revival of Lafayette Street — a historic thoroughfare weaving through iconic New York neighborhoods like Soho, Little Italy, and Chinatown—the fragrance embodies the energy of its surroundings. It opens with fresh bergamot, coriander, and floral notes, transitions to a heart of velvety ambroxan and rich vanilla, and finishes with lingering dry wood, tonka bean, cedarwood, and warm grey amber. Encased in a sleek, leather-textured bottle, Lafayette Street is a celebration of modern masculinity and a tribute to Bond No. 9's roots.

Imagine a swing so extreme you need a parachute to ride it. Red Bull takes the venerable playground mainstay to a whole other level, suspending it from hot air balloon 6,000 feet in the air.

There are two things that couldn't possibly be better suited to each other: Netflix's Stranger Things and 8-bit video games. Imagine finding Barb and Will in a pixelated Upside Down, or flipping over vans with Eleven's superpowers.
