I wish I were Big…
So you know the film Big – where a 12 year-old wishes to be a grown-up and wakes up as a 30 year-old Tom Hanks. Funny how 30 really doesn’t seem that old any more…
Well it was a favourite film for me, as it was for many people of my generation. Who DIDN’T want a giant trampoline in their front room, or the chance to play chopsticks on a massive floor piano?
But one thing I had never even IMAGINED possible was the possibility of owning myself the weird, creepy, but oh-so-iconographic Zoltan machine. Oh how wrong I was.
At www.zoltarmachine.com you can order, and event customise, your very own fortune telling wizard-in-a-glass-box.
Depending on your required size, shipping one of these bad boys over from the US should cost you in excess of £4,500, but wouldn’t it be worth it??
The first wish I’d make would be to be so stinking rich that I could afford to buy Zoltar Machines for all my friends. Just imagine what hilarious scrapes we’d all get ourselves into….
