Net launcher makes you feel like Spiderman

net_gun.jpgThe awesomely-named NET-2000 Shooting Net Rod looks like a flashlight of some sort, but when you hit a button on it it'll launch a 52-square-foot net up to 49 feet, capturing any bad guys or animals in its path. It's a pretty awesome non-lethal weapon, and it comes with the added bonus of making you feel like a superhero when you use it, I assume.

Unfortunately, getting some vaguely super-hero-like powers isn't cheap. This thing costs $419, and I'm guessing it's a real pain to put the net back in it when it's time to reload. But still, the feeling of snagging your little brother in a gigantic net from 50 feet away has got to be pretty sweet. I want one.
