I've been wanting one of those microbe plushies since forever. They're the most adorable things ever! While its design isn't the most exciting, I'd have to choose the Plague for myself; I have fond memories of... Developing paranoia of it since childhood and having nightmares about it with regular intervals for years. Huh. Also I liek things medieval.
So yeah. I think you've introduced me to a site where I can actually find things I like that aren't books. My parents are lucky it's too late for me to write a Christmas list...
I love ThinkGeek. One of my favourite non-book sites. And the plushie microbes are wonderful--I've already got a yellow amoeba and a brain cell, and the husband has the common cold. We have a local store that sells a bunch of them, but they don't sell the bookworm, so I can't purchase it locally.
(Gave my son a braincell plushie just when he was about to start final exams at school; that way, he could honestly claim he'd had at least ONE braincell on hand! For the record, he loved the idea. :P)
Icould spend a fortune on their shirts ... and funky gadgets. :) I used to threaten my son with giving him one of the ThinkGeek alarm clocks -- the one you have to chase, or the one that 'explodes' under your mattress, or the one where you need to solve a math problem before it stops ... *evil snicker*
Oh, goodness, does that ever make two of us! I've considered getting my mother one or more of those alarm clocks, given the trouble she has getting up!

I tend to like medieval things, myself.

I'm STARVING. Why don't we have enough milk for cereal. ;__;

I want them all, at some point. And I, too, could use several brain cells, too!
Hmm...don't know. I like almond milk. Want to try rice milk, too.
