Powerball frenzy has reached a fevered pitch! With a winner yet to be chosen for the lottery, the Powerball total has climbed to an unbelievable $1.4 billion+ dollars. Now while the odds against winning are in the range of 1 in 292 million, someone has to win it. It’s fun to dream, and who knows; maybe one of our lucky readers will take home the prize and be on easy street. With this in mind, we thought it would be fun to go over 5 ridiculously expensive geek items that you too could own if you win the Powerball, or if you just so happen to have a large bank account yourself and are looking to spend an exorbitant amount of money to be the top geek on the block.

From Batcaves to Iron Man statues, we’ll walk you through some of the ridiculously pricey toys, gadgets, and knick knacks you too can dream of owning. Good luck folks!
Life Size Hulkbuster
If you win the lottery, you’re going to need something to protect your new winnings, so why not get a life size Iron Man in Hulkbuster armor for yourself? Created by Beast Kingdom, this life sized version of the armor Tony Stark slaps on when he needs to give Bruce Banner a run for his money in the Avengers: Age of Ultron retails at $21.5 thousand dollars, and is surprisingly the least expensive item on our list! Standing at around 10 feet tall, you can’t hop into this armor and fly around town, but it would certainly make for a startling piece for anyone who enters your new place.
It’ll be interesting to see whether the Hulkbuster armor makes another appearance in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, considering Stark may not be fighting Banner at any point in the near future, but this makes for a nice substitute until that day happens.
Back to the Future’s Delorean
Why not go with the classic? The recent resurgence of Back to the Future with the recent date of Marty visiting the future in the sequel, the Delorean’s become a hot ticket item, even having its own website where folks can buy one of their own to attempt time travel without the help of Doc Brown. Starting at around $30,000, Delorean’s can be bought new through vendors, or used if you’re looking for a deal to save some of that Powerball cash.
Not feeling like owning the most iconic time traveling car? You’re in luck because you can also rent one of these beauties for around $1,000 a day. Grab a hoverboard, watch a Jaws sequel, and try not to date your own mother in the past.
24K Gold Skull Armchair
At one point or another, I think it’s crossed all of our minds what we would do if we became a super villain. Would we rule the land with an iron fist, fight the nearest hero, or simply use our powers for our own personal gain? Regardless, if you’re going to be one of the biggest villains of all time, you’re going to need the right furniture to show it off. Enter a 24K solid gold skull chair where you can dictate your orders to minions, follow the latest villainous news, or simply chill out and binge watch the latest Netflix offering.
This thing is insane, and I can’t actually believe it exists. Retailing at $500,000, this chair lays smack dab in the middle of our listings of insanely priced merchandise but obviously, you can see why. How many people can say they have a solid gold skull that they lounge around in?
Dark Knight Tumbler Replica
Outside of Tony Stark, Bruce Wayne is the epitome of billionaire super hero. The Power Ball winner would join his ranks, so what better way to cement that fact then buying the same car that he drives in Batman: Dark Knight? The craziest thing about this Tumbler is that it is completely street legal! That’s right, if you so wanted, you could totally take this tank out on the road and fight crime if you so wished (well, vigilantism is still illegal so maybe not the latter).
Retailing for $1.6 Million, this will certainly be a blow to your bank account, but hey, if you want to be Batman, you have to pay a price. Not interested in the “Dark Knight-mobile” there are several other Batmobile replicas ranging from the classic 60’s television version to the Tim Burton replica, all for less than the Tumbler. Happy hunting!
Batcave Home Theater
Here it is, the cream of the crop. Elite Home Theater offers turning your basement into a dead ringer for the Batcave, albeit specifically tailored for watching your favorite movies and TV shows on the big screen. What better thing to go with your newly purchased Tumbler than a theater of your very own that resembles the depths of Wayne Manor? Retailing for around $2 million (!), the Batcave comes with your own Batcomputer, Wayne themed bookshelves, elevator, tunnel exit, and even a wall of weaponry from Batman himself.
Seeing all these options, what do you think you would spend millions of dollars on when it came to nerd merchandise? Let us know in the comments below and good luck if you’re playing the Powerball, you’ll certainly need it!
