• I got a similar item for Christmas by the same company called "Mr. Suicide" which is a dead guy with little'x's for eyes that floats from the bath stop. You can see it here: http://www.retromodern.com/item_detail.asp?1760.

• So funny: Here in Austria, we have the same thing and it is not mentioned in the article, but this thing is designed by Alessi. Since we have a lot of different toilet-systems in Europe, it can happen, if you have the "wrong" one, that the top of the "sail" stings in your butt...

• As both a marketing bod, and an expat in Germany ... this latest Henkel trash invention is typical German too-muchness.
  
  And the Alessi branding - typical. If it has a label on it the Germans will buy anything.
  
  Be interesting to see if this one works. The advtg is crap, but that's no great surpise either!
