Full Scale Mars Rover. Remote Control or fully autonomous robots like the real NASA robots. $29,999

EDIT: The Mars Rover is out of stock. Demand exceeds supply. Probably.

Heck I could rule the world with that kind of money. NASA should really reconsider their public marker. Maybe get a middleman like Wal-mart.

Spirit and Opportunity weren't really "fully autonomous*" they were given instructions -- in Java!

I'd rather get the for real T-Rex fossil, $6 000 000:
T. rex for sale in Vegas - Weird News - Canoe.ca

* I imagine that means it will turn around after it knocks over the coffee table

Heh, in what fantasy can you rule the world with less than $250,000?

You could barely get a down-payment on a nice house with that money, these days.

EDIT: Ooops... it appears the middle link is prices at $1,200,000 and not $120,000 as stated. So I guess you could get your house... a fancy car... some nice interior... just about rule the world...
