GIANTmicrobes has just the fix for those of you who don't know what to get your science-loving sweetheart on Valentine's Day. Whether your aim is to say you'd like to start a family, give your sweetheart kiss, or surprise them a Valentine's box they won't be expecting, all the bases are covered with GIANTmicrobes' Valentine's Day plush offerings.

For those wanting to take their relationship to the "next level," there are the Sperm and Egg Panoramas (US$19.95 each) in three different backdrops: passion, romance, and moonlight. For those of you wanting to convey a simpler, more G-rated kind of love, there is always the Smooch Sound Doll (US$14.95), a pink plush microbe that blows kisses and says "I love you" in different languages when her lips are pressed. There are two Heart Boxes (US$19.95 each), both with rather contrasting purposes. The Heart Warming Box, containing the sperm cell, egg cell, Kissing Disease, Penicillin, the exclusive pink amoeba, are for those whose love is in full bloom. The Heart Burned Box, containing Herpes, Pox, HPV, Chlamydia, and Penicillin, seems to be more of a "break-up" gift.

Anyone planning on surprising their valentine with one of these?
