For a cool $4,100 (plus $500 shipping), you get two trains and a 30-foot-diameter track to put them on. They can support kids who weigh up to 100 pounds, and they're propelled via hand cranks. And they'll make your kids obnoxious snobs. Just get them Legos like regular parents. Hammacher Schlemmer, via Oh Gizmo!

Personally, I’d rather get my kids a sweet Power Wheels ATV for like a twentieth of the price. [via OhGizmo!]
