Dick was so tired of the TTTT crap that he asked Marky Sparky to send Leo some gadgets for him to talk about.The Big Jack is an oversized baseball bat, but both the bat and the ball are air-pressurised, and it's easy to hit, and the ball really flies.
Leo also goes through some other gadgets from Marky Sparky, including the Doinkit Darts (magnetic darts) and the Blast Pad (a missile launch to rival the Corporal in Episode 214), which along with the Spinmallows (Episode 384), Leo and the kids tried out at Clear Lake at Henry's 13th birthday party (Episode 387). For Henry's real birthday, Leo has assembled the California Chariot.
More Toothpick Birds Please !!
Between an out-of-the-country cellphone and another Toothpick Bird (Episode 282) variety of gadgets, a choice posed by Leo in Episode 380, Brian from California has no doubt which one he wants from Leo: the toothpick bird. It's quirky and makes Leo look bad, a winning combination.
