This epic novelty desktop lamp is a fantastic adaptation from the Iron Man franchise. It uses Iron Man's repulsor to illuminate one's space. For those tempted to high-five and shake the hand: make sure you don't burn yourself by waiting until it cools down first.
The hand itself possesses incredible detail, as it appears to be a little beat up from battle. It strays slightly from the actual anatomy of Iron Man, but this adds a nice, customized look.
There's no telling how functional it would be considering the light is completely exposed and likely harsh on the eyes, but I would say that is a pretty small price to pay to have a freaking Iron Man hand as a novelty desktop lamp.
