Cool Gift of the Day

What it is:
A tiny toy cubicle, with 4 little walls, a little corporate drone and everything else you need to play a rousing game of "Office".
Why we love it:
What could be more exciting than the drudgery of corporate life? How about the same thing, only really small? We've got the perfect gift for anyone who just can't get enough of being trapped in their little cubicle day in and day out, the chance to pretend to be lord and master of their own tiny cubicle domain. It's also (thankfully) not a bad gift for people who are less than thrilled about their rat maze of an office. Give them a chance to exact a cathartic make-believe revenge on bosses, coworkers and underlings alike with The Cubes. Each little cubicle comes with its own figure to harass and control, and adorable little accessories. They can have a whole office full of tiny plastic men and women to torture, err, motivate. The sets even come with a little job title sticker sheet, so they can give their tiny drones meaningless titles like "Accounting Associate Level 3" or "Senior Systems Coordinator." It's just like a real office! Only this time it's actually fun.
Who we'd give it to:
Bored office workers, vengeful bosses, irritated secretaries and children with very weird senses of humor.
