You thought that you were the victor in the USB wars, didn’t you? With your Artillery USB hub guarding your base camp… You did not count on an even bigger and more powerful USB 1.1 hub. While you were sucking on your stogies in celebration and kissing pictures of your gal back home, the Airplane USB Hub just layed waste to your whole platoon.

It did so due to awesomely impressive specs like these: Airplane design with 5 seconds clear flying-off sound effect, 4 ports, Fan On/Off button, Soft plastic blades for safety, Very strong wind, Blue LED indicator light at the tail, USB 1.1, Size: 158*140*45mm, Weight: 105g.

This cannon-shaped USB hub features three ports that trigger an artillery sound effect when a device is plugged in. Pretty cool, but don’t think you are going to win any USB wars with this one. It only supports USB 1.1.

Neat as it is, despite being USB 1.1, it needs to actually fire something and not just look like an old cannon. What would be cool is if it actually held a small USB drive that it could jettison out when you are done with it. If the kids are still saying FAIL this week, I suggest you say it to the Artillery USB Hub. It’s certainly not full of win.

Seagate has been pretty busy lately what with the announcement of their revamped FreeAgent drives. Now we come across this new $40 FreeAgent Go Dock+.

What’s interesting is that it doubles as a powered three-port USB hub. The device should prove convenient if you’re into the whole FreeAgent Go thing. Pretty nice. It almost looks like it was designed by apple.

Dane-Elec has decided to sell games in a new way. One that has nothing to do with the optical disc format but instead is in the form of a USB flash drive. As you might expect, these are bargain bin titles.

Dane-Elec will make available older titles like Rainbow Six Lockdown , Blazing Angels and Fashion Designer which are going for just $19.99 or $24.99, depending on the game. I guess the upside is that after the installation, and after you’ve beaten the game in a few hours, you can use them as standard USB flash drives.

Man, Rocky III was awesome wasn’t it? The first time you saw it anyway. Eye of the tiger Rock! It’s the movie that made Mr. T a household name so he could go on to say I pity the fool a million times. Now you can relive the movie with these Rocky III USB drives.

Available in Apollo Creed, Rocky Balboa, and Clubber Lang for only ¥2,850 ($30) No Burgess Meredith?

You may know Tengu, the interactive USB powered device that reacts to sound, and uses LED lights to display animated faces. Well, they are back in the form of Tengu Allstars. The new range includes three different looks, with addition of some colorful afros.

The first one is named Rotten, an anarchist, punk rocker type. The second is Stardust, a glam rocker, while the third is Woodstock, who is a trippy hippie from the 1960s.

How we wish that Nintendo would get it together and offer these 4GB drives officially. Sigh. But at least they’re available on Etsy for $55 each. The Mario Brick comes in six feet varieties and costs only $19. There’s also Koopa, Goomba and the mushroom.

Sure, it’s a hefty price, but where else are you going to get one? Plus they are hand crafted with love and star-power, in a small cottage within the Mushroom Kingdom.

At first glance, this 4 port USB hub from Buffalo looks ordinary. But it isn’t. Notice how it resembles the powerstrips that you already use in your outlets. We find it cute in a geeky way. Yes, those are individual switches for each port that enables easy selection of which devices you want to use or not use.

It even features an LED light indication for when it’s dark. The hub itself will come in four colors, with an AC adapter and four USB cables that measure 1.5m in length.

Here’s a unique 4-port USB hub with the ability to juice up almost any compatible USB device. It even comes with a whole bunch of USB connectors to handle virtually anything you throw at it. Having a solar powered USB hub is awesome because you won’t add a single cent to your power bill thanks to that solar panel in the middle.

On cloudy days you can always hook it up to your car’s cigarette lighter outlet as an alternative power source. Only $20 and it’s a useful device. It’s like the K3 generator, without a windmill.

If only the legs moved. Then this USB Penguin flash drive would be truly hilarious. Sadly, they do not. So, while the Penguin has landed head first in your USB port, presumably with cartoon sound effects, it’s legs aren’t moving. Failed comedy opportunity.

The WWF Penguin USB flash drive will come in varying capacities of up to 16GB. Each purchase will see 5% of the proceeds being donated to the WWF. The 8GB configuration is going for $26 currently.

From American food company Heinz comes this Beanzawave portable microwave. It’s the world’s smallest, portable microwave oven, measuring 7.4 inches tall x 6.2 inches wide x 5.9 inches. It’s only a prototype at the moment.

The price would be around $160 if Heinz ever decides to make this USB microwave oven, so you can have your beans anywhere.(What were they thinking with that name?) It would be convenient for those on the road since it can be powered it by a laptop.

Most computers only have about 2 to 4 USB ports, even the best motherboards only offer 10 or 15 USB ports. But let’s face it, you need more. You have your flash drives, your USB toys, USB Christmas lights, drink coolers etc. You NEED more ports in a USB hub.

This baby has 49. That’s right 49. You’ll never be without a USB port again unless you have way too many USB gadgets. Like say, 50. It’s actually meant for a more professional environment, like say, getting input from 49 different cameras simultaneously and the like. But you can have one too. It’s powered from a standard ATX power supply.

You say potato I say pot-a-to. I think we can both agree that this thing looks more like a deformed mutant brain than a potato any day. Seriously, would you buy a potato that looked like this one? Me either. Anyway, if you like your USB hubs on the disturbingly weird side, this is for you, ya damn freak.

It’s a 4-port USB 2.0 compliant hub that is what it is. The USB Potato 4-Port Hub will cost you $16 from Brando. Not Marlon Brando, the gadget site. I know I’ve seen this thing it several B movies, but I just can’t place it.

We’ve seen several USB transformers lately. There must be a movie coming out or something. There’s the transforming mouse, the Ravage USB drive, and now we have this $42 import that features a cassette deck, similar to Soundwave.

This guy can transform into a netbook. And whether you dig “Qosmio” netbooks or not, it’s a cool 4-port USB hub. So you can now have a small army of USB transformers.

We’ve seen our share of Lego USB drives, but these new Lego USB hubs are actually stackable, therefore totally awesome.

Each Lego USB Hub comes with four USB ports, and in a variety of colors that include red, blue, yellow and black. Sadly, they aren’t an official Lego product and so are only available in Korea for about $12 each. That’s a shame. I really wanted to build an entire Lego wall using these and go for the coveted Guinness world record of “Most hubs in a single wall, made by some lonely dork”.
