When I was a kid, there were no iPads, video games, or the Internet. When I wasn't reading books or taking apart broken appliances to salvage magnets, I was playing with yo-yos and gyroscopes. I hadn't thought about gyroscopes in years till I happened upon an entire site dedicated to selling them. Gyroscope.com offers several gyroscopes, but the one shown above really caught my eye. Made of brass and aluminum, it comes with a special electric motor that is used to get it spinning at 12000 RPM. Priced at $98.99, it's definitely a  pricey toy.
