Don't just smoke the old-fashioned way. Get yourself one of these themed pipes or programmable vaporizers.

There’s no better way to celebrate 4/20, the stoner’s holiday, than by going down the vast rabbit hole that is the internet to find nerdy bongs, pipes, and vape pens.

The nice thing about more states legalizing medicinal and recreational pot is that now it’s not so taboo to find something to smoke from that matches your style. If Scooby Doo’s Shaggy can smoke in whatever type of van the Mystery Machine is, you and your friends can enjoy something out of a Poké Ball pipe before heading out to catch ‘em all.

Gotta Smoke ‘Em All

As a self-professed Pokémon addict, we’re starting with this knock-off Poké Ball hand pipe, though this is most definitely not an official product endorsed by The Pokémon Company.

This 4.5-inch spoon hand pipe is shaped like the Poké Balls you’d use to catch them all in the games. But as the description says, you’d probably use this more to “smoke them all” instead, eh? If you get one of these, try pairing it with an off-brand Poké Ball grinder—for berries, of course.

Smoke The Baby

The fandom surrounding The Mandalorian has been a bit much for me. But naturally, it found its way over into smoking culture. This particular Baby Yoda silicone pipe looks the least slapped together of the Grogu-themed paraphernalia on DIY seller sites like Etsy. The pipe is handmade, nicely priced, and backed by stellar reviews. The only caveat is to consider whether you want to cross the Etsy picket line right now as artists and creators look to unionize.

Smoke a Bo[wl]ba Fett

Sticking with the Star Wars theme, I’m honestly disturbed at how easy it is to find themed pipes all over the internet. Do a quick search on Amazon for a Boba Fett pipe, and you’ll get dozens of listings, like this overtly-designed one that looks like it was cobbled together in ceramics class.

Wizman Puff Boy

I am obsessed with the Wizman Puff Boy, because it looks like it belongs on the shelf next to my Tamagotchi collection. It is a vaporizer with an 8-bit color OLED screen, a control pad, and two additional input buttons, which you can use to control the temperature and other settings. There’s also a drawing board program that lets you create a custom sprite for the display. However, I don’t think the device is currently available to ship to the U.S., which is a serious bummer.

Set Phasers to Smoke

I’m sorry if you’re rolling your eyes at me. The low-hanging pun was there. If you’re a sci-fi fan, you might appreciate the relative cheese of this “Set to Stun” ray gun pipe, which enables you to “smoke like Marvin the Martian.”

Smoke Bob-omb

I have a weird affinity for the Bob-omb from Super Mario 64. It’s probably because King Bob-omb it’s the first significant boss fight to beat in the game, so it’s perfect to smoke out of a Bob-omb’s likeness.

As an aside, Mario-themed smoking accessories are a dime a dozen. After all, the mushroom motif goes a long way.

A Vape That’s Late on Android Updates

Okay, sadly, I haven’t found anything recent on this smartphone/vaporizer device called the Vaporcade that debuted at a CES over five years ago. But it is a testament to how easy it is to make an Android phone into anything, including something that you can use to smoke whatever you’re carrying around with you discretely.

The phone featured two batteries to power up the vape and the phone separately, so you weren’t chipping away at your standby time with every toke. The phone cost $500 when it launched. It probably didn’t take off because getting an Android phone without consistent software updates is like shuffling across a level minefield.
