Vanadium/Vanadous (really expensive, contains vanadium)
Vanderbilt (TN edition)
Vandalize (parts missing edition)
Vanish (clear plastic-walmart special, kids will love it)
Vanaspati (organic lube rather than synthetic grease)

Vangogh - pretty little sunflower themed prints, slightly abstract for today's misguided youth...

Vangoth - all black, self harms and implodes on first hookup.
