Alarmed by violence? This won't help - the new Gun O'Clock from Japanese toymaker Bandai, due for release this November 15. It's just the latest of a number of weird and bizarre alarm clocks that require the bleary-eyed sleeper to take extraordinary means to quell that persistent wake-up call. In this case, it's shooting the clock.

The Gun O'Clock plays on a familiar theme - wanting to "kill" that annoying, super loud alarm which has been designed to wake you from your all-too-short slumber. Now, you can do just that... but it takes a clear shot to the target's bullseye and by the time you've accomplished that, you're wide awake. Two "game modes" are offered: Time Trial and Random Shot. Check out the Gun O'Clock in action, in this hilarious Japanese (with English overdub) video:
