Robert Reid (Lonely Planet US Travel Editor & blogger) - I'm charmed by the King Tut Life-Sized Cabinet (pictured above) for a variety of reasons. One, knowledge comes from prying open the past, some say, and this case it's literal. But also for its description, which begins, "Measuring taller than most men (6 1/4 feet)." This is wonderful -- for its unusual use of fraction, but also because SkyMall simply understands that when I buy $850 furnishings I make my considerations solely in how they compare... with men. Robert also demands that he sit in that throne everywhere he travels.

David Farley (Author of An Irreverent Curiosity and freelancer) - I don't have a truck--or even a car--to properly display the Truck Antlers, but if I ever do, I would totally buy these. I love the idea of turning my automobile into an antlered animal. I'd just make sure I don't drive through states with loose gun laws or anywhere near Dick Cheney's house. I'd don't love the idea of being hunted by some gun-toting nut. Oddly, David's failure to own a truck has not prevented him from owning multiple Animated Hitch Critters.

Jen Leo (Lead blogger for the Los Angeles Times Travel Blog) - The Noise Canceling Safety Earmuffs are my dream gift. Not to cancel out the noise from the screaming kid next to me on the plane-ahem, mine-but to shut out the flight attendant screaming "Please stay seated - the fasten seat belt light is on!" as I race past her to change the poopy diaper of my tot which is clearly causing more turbulence in our aisle than the pilot's fine driving. How intense are your child's bowel movements that your diaper situations require industrial-strength noise cancellation? Does Gerber make three-bean chili tacos now?

Spud Hilton (Travel Editor for the San Francisco Chronicle) - It was a tough choice, but I finally went with the Shirtpocket Underwater Camera. Not only does it have 4X zoom and 115 minutes of continuous operation, but my shirtpocket keeps going underwater and I never have a video camera to capture those precious moments. Two things worth noting: this thing takes voice memos and Spud's second choice was the Underwater Cell Phone System. Conclusion: Spud Hilton is a merman.

Nicole Lerner, Alexi Ueltzen, Amy Widdowson & Victoria Gutierrez (Staff at NileGuide) - The ladies of NileGuide want a Custom Inflatable Costume. Why? Because no one dresses up to travel anymore. Who wouldn't want to sport an outfit like this? 7.5' tall, inflatable and it comes with a built-in backpack power pack. That $2k price tag is just pennies compared to the joy of "familiarizing the public" with Yoplait...or NileGuide. We're sporting one of these for next year's Bay to Breakers. Reminds me of when I was a kid and my imaginary best friend was an anthropomorphic container of cottage cheese. I miss Curdis ever so much.

Jim Benning (Co-founder and editor of World Hum) - My dream product is the SlumberSleeve. We've all used our arms as pillows at one time or another, but SkyMall knows we can do better! One of the user comments really sells me on it: "Although I tend to be fairly capable when it comes to assembly, I am still trying to figure out how to stretch the fabric "wristband" over the support piece." I wrote about the SlumberSleeve in December 2008. I guess Jim and I could have a slumber (sleeve) party and wear our PJs.

George Hobica (Founder of Airfarewatchdog and Gadling contributor) - The Shure Se530 Luxury Earphones block out noisy fellow passengers and the sound quality is superb. And they're lightweight and easy to pack. Leave it to the guy that finds us the best deals in travel to actually pick a sane, useful and high-quality product from the SkyMall catalog. But I'm sure he meant to recommend these much more logical Pillow Speakers.

Alexander Basek (Best deals reporter at Travel + Leisure and freelancer) - I pick the Wine and Liquor Accelerator. Traditionally, it is my understanding that once you open wine, "aging" it turns into vinegar. Still, I hope they keep this magic machine hush hush from the folks at Macallan. Alex likes his wine like I like my women: young and tart. Hey-o!

Andrew Evans (Writer for National Geographic Intelligent Travel) - My dream SkyMall product is the authentic Indiana Jones Leather Bullwhip. Currently, my persona as a travel writer suffers from not having such a whip as part of my ensemble. This special edition SkyMall "gift" would come in handy from Patagonia to Berlin and as an added bonus, I would gain the attention of bored TSA agents who would unsuccessfully attempt to confiscate my new fashion accessory. Truth be told, Andrew's persona as a travel writer suffers less for his lack of a whip and more for his insistence on wearing this heating pad at all times.

Great selections by these seasoned travelers. Not as good as the ones I find every week, but you don't become a highly respected, sought-after expert in all things SkyMall overnight. Which writer do you think picked the best product? What tops your SkyMall wish list? Let us know in the comments.
