JP’s Absurd Holiday Wishlist Item #14: Zoltar

Remember in the 1988 movie "Big" when 12-year-old Josh Baskin inserted a coin into the Zoltar machine and he makes a wish to be 'big?' Then, when he wakes up the following morning, he finds that he is not only a full grown adult, but he has taken the form of 32-year-old Tom Hanks?

Well, Zoltar is back, and you can own him for your own selfish-wishing needs.

The machine is over 6 feet tall and features spoken and printed fortunes.

According to hammacher.com, Zoltar will even acknowledge your presence and will invite you to approach him. Once you insert a quarter, Zoltar nods his head up and down as his crystal ball illuminates and he sweeps his hand back and forth.

The machine provides 16 different spoken fortunes and dispenses one of 23 different printed fortunes in the form of a paper card and thousands of fortune cards are included.

The website does not mention if Zoltar has to be plugged in or not. ;)

Cost: $9,000
