If you are a collector, chances are that you wouldn't mind having one of these replica gadgets from your favorite game, TV show, or movie show up under the tree (or in the driveway) this holiday. Unfortunately, getting your hands on one is easier said than done. Limited availability and obscene price tags are going to be major obstacles in scoring these geeky holy grails, but not to worry, once you're done drooling, there's another gallery of more affordable replicas after the break.
If the items featured above were a little to rich for your blood, you can still get a piece of the action with a few of these gadgets—most priced well under $250:

I'd love to attempt going 88 on broadway with that De Lorean
I'm ashamed that I knew the Airwolf helmet before I even clicked on the picture. That theme song haunts me to this day.

50 B9s = 4 people all hugs and smiles.
1 Dalek = no hugs, no smiles, no people.

I need a Cobra Commander helmet, maybe the sword from Thundercats.
Bit of advice: do NOT deface The Hoff!!
