Who got the best Arcade related gift?

Wife is not a gamer and came up with the following two gifts along with Pinball 101. She did really well, and can't wait for my 1st copy of the PinGame Journal.

I got that Pac-Man mug too! I just tried it out in my new Keurig brewer, it's pretty neat. The only other somewhat arcade-related gift I got is a pair Klein wire strippers.
 
My Daughter got me a liter sized smoked black beer mug that has a pixelated ATARI with the fuji logo on it and my Wife got me a TRON WII remote.

ArcadeMaze!

My youngest Daughter got me the red and green mushroom candy tins last year.

My wife helped me get a Terminator 2 pinball machine. She's the best..

Somebody likes thinkgeek.com.... I love that site!

My wife got me some specialty Dremel bits that I hope will work well on CPs. Not arcade-related, but she also got me a great Nixie tube clock kit; I'll be soldering that puppy tonight.

Have you seen the nixie tube watch?

I never really ask for arcade game parts or decor for Christmas because the stuff is typically used or too specific for anyone but me to pick out. That leaves more generic game related objects or console game stuff.

I got this book, which I'm loving so far. Its over 900 pages and covers from the 70's on up.
