         BANKSY
Special Selection May 09 Banksy is perhaps the best known graffiti artist ever. His work ranges from the optical illusion, to the bizarre, to the political statement, to the cultural icon. He has completed works all over the planet, while maintaining his anonymity. His work is done with stencils and spray paint, allowing him to get extremely complicated works up quickly. As far as anyone knows, he does not sell any of his artwork through traditional means. So to collect his pieces, auctioneers have been known to sell his work in place and leave it up to the purchaser how they will remove it from the location.

         GIANT NINTENDO CONTROLLER
4th Place October 08 Super Sized, retro, and awesome. Kyle Downes earns some kudos for not just thinking up this idea but bringing it into our reality. This controller actually plays, and it also doubles as a coffee table. Hell, he even built in some handy storage underneath. He also has an ''awesome" blog site that tells you how to build one. The comments section as of September 30th has the word "awesome" used 55 times... I think that speaks for itself. Check it out here: http://ultra-awesome.blogspot.com/
