Pat Berry dot net: Rayguns

The folks at Weta Workshop have an online store called Weta Collectibles. (Yes, this is the Weta Workshop responsible for jaw-dropping effects in films like the Lord of the Rings series and The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe.) In addition to the movie-related merchandise, the store also offers rayguns. And when I say rayguns, I mean Dr. Grordbort's Infallible Aether Oscillators, "a line of immensely dangerous yet simple to operate wave oscillation weapons". These limited-edition handcrafted guns appear to be 19th-century technology, using phlogiston and compressed aether for ammunition. Three models are available:

ManMelter 3600ZX Sub-Atomic Disintegrator Pistol
F.M.O.M. Industries Wave Disrupter Gun
Goliathon 83 Infinity Beam Projector

These are exactly the kind of weapons you need when you're battling nameless horrors at the center of the Earth, setting out to explore the distant future in your time machine, or just going for a stroll through the East End of London on a foggy night.
