The Firefly Replica Keychain was created using the TV series' special effects files and carefully scaling them down to just over two inches. The keychain is cast in solid metal with a pewter finish and contains an incredible amount of detail – leaving no doubt that when you travel, you do it in Firefly style.

This is the first item QMx has prioduced with their new Firefly license (as opposed to their Serenity license) and it's seriously cool and very affordable.  You're gonna order one anyway, you know it. Might as well get in on a chance for an even shinier one.

Cast in professional-grade resin and painted by hand, Dr. Horrible is pictured in his moment of triumph, holding his Freeze Ray aloft in one hand and shaking his fist at the world. As with all QMx animated maquettes, Dr. Horrible comes with many screen-accurate details, such as his goggles, the medical symbol on his smock and, of course, the aforementioned deanimation gun. He stands over six inches tall–nine, if you include his weapon. Freeze Ray. Tell your friends.

Dr. Horrible comes in an edition of 1,000 statues and is the first in a series of limited-edition maquettes based on the characters of Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog.

You need this on your desk to terrorize your coworkers and remind them that you have friends (or, rather, allies) in high, evil places.

Retail is $69.95, but if you preorder you get it for $55.96. You'd be criminally insane not to.

To make them a bit more special I'm signing each one and I've put a space at the top for a sketch of a character of your choice – from the A-Z or indeed anywhere else. Just tell me who you'd like in your sketch, and any message you'd like included, in the PayPal 'instructions to seller' field. (Note: please request a single character only!) If you leave this field blank I'll sketch something random of my own choosing…

You can see them all here, and they're hilarious. Captain Britain and Cerebus, Indiana Jones and a drunken Iron Man, Q and Q (reading "Q"), even a naked Joss Whedon. If nothing else get this just to hear the reactions from your guests when they walk by it…

Robert Anton Wilson, futurist and writer, died with a large amount of medical debt and his daughter, Christina, is auctioning off some of his belongings. Including this: Robert Anton Wilson's medical marijuana card

As we all know (or should) RAW was a great champion of decriminalizing marijuana. In his late sixties, when his post-polio syndrome started getting bad, he really found great relief and was a staunch supporter of WAMM. WAMM is Wo/Man's Alliance for Medical Marijuana, located in Santa Cruz. His doctor gave him the necessary paperwork and here is his official WAMM card granting him the right to use marijuana medicinally. He is of course, patient #2323. There is no signature, but his picture is emblazoned on the front with a twinkle in his eye…

RAW's work… hell, his attitude… was a huge influence on my teenage years, and I reread "Illuminatus!" every year for quite a while. The concept of fun and delight being a necessary component to any personal, religious, or philosophical belief system ran through everything he wrote and it has stuck with me all this time.

* Official – she’s being produced with the full support of the studio.
* Studio Scale – at 19 inches, she’s exactly the size a filming miniature would likely have been.
* Film Quality – making a film-worthy model is about more than size. We’re making sure our Serenity has all the details a Hollywood model maker would want on their filming miniature before it went in front of the camera.
* Artisan – each ship will be handcrafted by a professional special effects model maker right here in the U.S.
* SFX – she’ll come with a sophisticated lighting effects package and maybe another surprise or two.

Assuming you agree that naming her the “Official Film Quality Studio Scale Serenity Artisan Replica, SFX Edition” is a bit much, we’d love to hear your suggestions.

Head to fireflyshipworks.com and give them your suggestion. How often do you get to name a spaceship?

Inkworks, the company that brought us great trading cards for Buffy, Angel, Firefly and Serenity, went under last March, a victim of the lessening economy. Which is  a damn shame. They made some great products, and president Allan Caplan really enjoyed his work.

If you're still looking for those last few cards to fill in your collection, apparently their remaining stock was purchased by Factory Entertainment, a company that has been selling cards through eBay for a few years now. They've created a site to list their inventory at inkworksarchive.com, but everything there (plus lots more) gets sold through their eBay store. No Firefly cards, not a lot of Serenity, but plenty of others from their biggest franchises.

For a look back, check out my interview with Inkworks' Allan Caplan from 2006.

Tomorrow is Joss' birthday, and there's lots of ways to celebrate! Many of us will be gathering at various Can't Stop the Serenity events around the world (check here for the list and schedule), some of us will be holding quiet ceremonies in front of our home Joss shrines, and some of us can boost the economy in his name. Which is now easier, because TFAW.com is holding a Joss' Birthday Sale!

This means you'll save 30% off cool stuff like Buffy Season 8, Serenity apparel, Angel variants, and even Joss' runs on Astonishing X-Men and Runaways. This is the perfect time for you to proclaim your allegiance to all things Whedon and complete your collection. Feels more like your birthday, doesn't it?

Our Happy Birthday Joss Whedon Sale starts now and ends at 11:59 p.m. on June 23, 2009, so make sure to visit our Joss Whedon Theme Page now to take advantage of some excellent deals. But be quick–your fellow Whedon fans are already there!
