Love these! Nice to see them collected in one place.
Don’t care for the magic floating bag, though. It looks cool, but fishing line would cut into the hands of the person carrying it, and that’s not nice. I prefer comfortable-to-use cleverness.
The jump-rope bag is still my favorite. :)

The gun bag would be a pretty good way to get shot by the police… If they can mistake a pear or a bible as deadly weapons in the heat of the moment, then it’s quite possible – awesome design though!!!

And of course – more than likely all of these stores are either in Europe or the west coast of the USA. NEVER see anything neat here on the East Coast!!
MY fav. is the one for the book store with the gun – but as another person mentioned, you would probably get your head blown off by an over-zealous police officer, especially in this area! (NYC/NJ)

The fishing line one’s pretty stupid, if you put any decent weight in the bag, that things going to start slicing into your hand.
