Very good collection. Novag Citrine Chess Computer and LED Chess Set
are my favourite. But I was fascinated by Ice Chess Maker.
They are all interesting ideas. I especially like the Chess watch and the Novag Citrine Chess board. Great Chess Board to have when I am not around my computer.
How can I order that chess watch? I’m not from USA…
So the LED chess set has a proximity sensor and a battery in each piece? 😳
Nice collection! I especially like 3,4,6 and 8. The computer is really cool, wooden board, magnetic sensors, just a little pricey. Great Christmas gift for my son!
