...which, as I understand it, is a glowing blue balloon. I blew mine up and have been bouncing it around all day. So exciting!
By far my vote for craziest Watchman tie-in merchandise is Nite Owl Dark Roast Coffee by "Veidt Enterprises":
Yes sirree, folks: that is a real product. Now you too can experience the ennui and quiet despair of aging Dan Dreiberg each and every morning when you wake up from your nightmare of atomic destruction!

I believe it safe to say this is MUCH less than "properly."
