Headphonies new Halloween friendly speakers

Headphonies are not what I’d call new, but they just keep on coming out with new fun designs to keep life interesting.  For those of you unfamiliar with the product, these short guys are extremely portable miniature men that double as tiny little 2W speakers.  Recently they’ve come out with Fangs and Howl just in time for Halloween. Instead of using normal speakers while you’re wandering the streets on Halloween you could sport one of these guys.  Thanks to the handy little eyelet on the top of their heads you’ll be able to dangle them from a keychain if you choose.  Each one is powered by a Lithium ion battery to make it possible for you to recharge these once they run out of juice.  You can pick some of these up for $24.95 a piece.
