Japanese engineering and Italian coachbuilding meet in a single car that carries the GT-R name into new territory. Only nineteen examples of the GT-R50 by Italdesign left the workshop. One of them, finished with blue accents and carrying serial number seventeen on its engine plate, sits ready for bids this weekend at the Bingo Auction in Tokyo.
The Chimelong Spaceship Theme Park in China’s Zhuhai region is a 750-meter-long structure that lies against green hills, like a vessel that just landed and stayed. The world’s largest indoor theme park is contained within its over 400,000-square-meter enclosed area. It began functioning in stages in late 2023 and quickly established seven Guinness World Records before most people outside the region were aware of it.
Christopher Nolan’s upcoming film has already sparked plenty of conversation, but one of the quickest sellouts tied to it did not involve tickets or posters. Instead, it was a limited-run popcorn container modeled directly after the large-format film camera Nolan has long praised as his go-to tool.
Back in 1991, Toyota offered something in select LiteAce minivans that still catches people off guard decades later.

Owners of original PlayStation consoles have watched their disc drives age for decades. Lasers fade. Games start to skip or fail to load altogether. Replacement drives grow scarce and expensive.

No discs stay necessary after setup. The change keeps the original hardware intact and authentic while removing the most common point of failure.
