I highly recommend finding 17 minutes free to follow the adventures of “SillySparrowness”. Silly Sparrowness is a Doctor Who fan who decides to build her own TARDIS. It does not help that Doctor Who isn’t well known in Germany, that her DIY TARDIS project soon escapes the basement but Silly Sparrowness has to wrestle with […]
Clinton Felker’s samurai Star Wars
Clinton Felker’s awesome samurai Boba Fett has been doing the rounds on the blogs again. I can see why – it’s an incredible drawing. It’s well worth checking out his blog as there’s a whole collection. I think the Stormtrooper archer is my favourite. What about you?
Zombie killing weapon-gun of doom
Okay, it’s not called the “weapon-gun of doom” as the official name for this weapon is the “Zombie-X exterminator”. Obviously. What do you think about the chainsaw attachement? Is that really going to cut it? Excuse the pun. Here’s another thought; do you want simple and re-usable weapons for the zombie apocalypse or do we […]
Wastelander Panda
This video is all about the last panda coping in an a post-apocalyptic wasteland. It’s more Kung Fu Panda than a wildlife show, though, as the teaser below makes all too clear.

Make a speaker for your phone out of a beer can
This is an interesting effort from Red Stripe (the Jamaican beer people) that seems to be targeted to electronics geeks looking for a “just because we can” style of project.

Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit LEGO teasers
LEGO have some Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit sets coming in the summer of 2012. The microsite to monitor if you’re an addict is LordOfTheRings.lego.com but I imagine the action end of the news will appear on the LEGO store.

Real life Incredible Hulk robs New York bank
You wouldn’t like me when I’m hard up for cash. CCTV footage has captured the brazen – and successful – attempt to rob a bank in New York. The robber, described as a white man in his 20s, wearing a jacket with a fake fur collar added a Hulk mask to his get up. The […]
Project Fiona – the gaming tablet
Project Fiona is one of the standouts from CES. The tablet is designed for gamers – so it doesn’t fit in your bag as easily as other tablets but it games a heck of a lot better!
