Professor Layton and the Amazing Review Swag

Posted Feb 8th 2008 12:45PM by Chris Greenhough

Once the preserve of circus masters, Lord Snooty from The Beano, and Mandrake the Magician, the trusty top hat has now been adopted by another group: Nintendo DS game reviewers. This glitzy top hat, modeled after Professor Layton's own, was a freebie that came with Kombo's review copy of Professor Layton and the Curious Village.

Needless to say, we are burning with envy. Our lives would be significantly improved with a plain top hat, never mind one emblazoned with the good Professor's name. Go past the break for a shot of this fine item being shown off by smug Kombo editor Phillip Levin.

Um, honestly? Big frakkin' whoop. It's made of foam, and it doesn't have a top, which kind of takes the "top" out of "top hat."
