The Gryphon is sure to be the air-assault accessory of choice of special military forces and superhero wannabes everywhere. With this set of personal flying wings strapped to your back, you'll be able to bail out of a plane miles from your target, glide to a landing area while staying virtually undetectable by radar, and then pull the rip cord on your 'chute for a soft landing (and presumably jettisoning your wings). The designer, German company ESG, already has plans for an upgrade that would include a small jet engine, enabling the wearer to drop from a lower altitude while increasing the range. Pretty badass stuff, and even if the military doesn't go for it, it'll probably show up in a Delta Force sequel, with Chuck Norris swooping in on some evildoers in a souped-up Gryphon. Roc on! — Peter Pachal
