New movie, new gadgets

Unread post by drewkitty ~..~ »

I just watched the trailer for the new "mission impossible" movie and saw a few gadgets. The one that stood out was the glass climbing gloves, to climb up the outside a skyscraper.

1) What are some of your favorite gadgets?
2) What are some you have made?
May you be blessed with the ability to change course when you are off the mark.
Each question should be give the canon answer 1st, then you can proclaim your house rules.

I keep trying to acquire or build a self retracting and expanding bow, and a variety of trick arrows in various games, normally I run into resistance from my GMs though.

Why? I hate it when GMs do that.

For a Shadowrun game, I had a character who built his own umbrella. Most Shadowrun games are set in Seatle, so there is absolutely nothing suspicious about him carrying an umbrella. The cloth was bullet-resistant fabric, the metal tip could deliver a ectro-stun charge, and the handle could detach as a short sword. I never got a chance to use it.
