You could make money off of this if you are able to pair willing manufacturers to realistic and popular ideas that get generated. It could become a real market place.

Hilarious project.

Edit: I did both Mouthwash Ramen and Time Machine to the Present. I’m now addicted to this, thanks.

This is what Amazon has been doing for years with Marketplace: check what's popular and then compete on price.

It's also why it's not worth it to develop a hit hardware product, China will undercut you 50% in a month (and probably build it better).
