Boomwave Products sent us two new devil-like iPod cases all the way from Malaysia as part of the company's PodStar Diablo Series. Each casing is manufactured in limited editions and have background stories (gee, reminds me of the Mimoco USB key stories).
The first is "Big Top" for the 30GB/60GBiPod with video, described as a circus performer who moonlights as a secret agent to fight against the forces of evil. It dislikes PETA and fires. (Although if you're devil, don't you kinda have to put up with fire?) Big Top comes with a sterling silver earring on the back (I guess that's to show its tough side), a hook, detachable screen protector, and a dog tag.
Other cases available are SplatterFest, Garou and Crimsomniek in red, and Sideshow, Reaper, NightStalker, and DarkSide in black.
The other casing we received is the "Crimson Avenger" for iPod nano. It is a warrior, avenger, crimefighter, and upholder of dark justice. It likes Batman but dislikes politicians. (Don't we all!) It comes with a red neck strap, dog tag, and a screen protector (although my package didn't come with one).
Other iPod nano cases available are Legion, Red Rumble and BloodBath in red, and The Abyss, Dark Lord, BlackOut and Vigilante in black.
The coolest part about these iPod casings is the back: look at the tail! They're very easy to get on and of course are a bit difficult to slip off since they're made of silicone, but it's no biggie at all.
The weirdest part about the iPod casings? The packaging they came in, doned with the words, "Prepare to be Seduced"!! When Lance Ulanoff received the box in the mail, he wasn't sure what to think (and what his wife would say at home). I don't know about you, but it takes a lot for a package to seduce me.
Overall, the general consensus in our office was, "These are sooo cool!" And that they are! They fit nice and snug around both iPods. The PodStar Diablo for iPod with video sells for $29.90; PodStar Diablo for iPod nano is $25.90.

Jen, it may take more than a package to seduce you but all it takes is a nice tail to seduce me!

Gina wins! Also, those are strangely cool. Had I an iPod, I would consider one. I've always wanted an mp3 player with a tail, if not actually legs.

Cool. How about adding two legs and the tail adjustable, so that the pod could stand upright on its own? Well done BoomWane!!!
