Scales aren't usually all that interesting, but the MaxView Body Fat Analyzer Scale ($100) is one of the coolest scales I have ever seen. Not only does it look like something dropped from a passing starship, it also displays precision weight measurements in 0.2-lb. increments on a giant 4 inch tall digital readout. In addition to mere weight readings, it also utilizes bioelectrical impedance analysis to calculate body fat percentage, body water, muscle mass, body mass index and basal metabolic rate so you can maintain a healthy lifestyle. It also has a unique feature that displays readings for 10 seconds after you step off, so you don't have to try peering over your huge gut anymore and can support most pig people up to 400 lbs before crushing.
