Is Geek Native turning into a fashion blog? We’ve had the C3PO swimsuit, the R2-D2 swimsuit and Darth Vadar swimsuit. They’ve all been from a boutique called Black Milk who know when they’re on to a winner. Now we’ve got the Pacman swimsuit. It’s $90.00.
Kaley Cuoco warns of Slave Leia syndrome
Is it possible to have too many Slave Leias at a convention? Actress Kaley Cuoco thinks so! Whereas she stresses she’s not against cosplay girls dressing as Slave Leia, she cautions against Slave Leia fatigue in this helpful Public Service Ad from America. You may recognise her from the Big Bang Theory. I do. Thanks […]
Colt .45 Cufflinks
There’s a reason I keep my eyes on the virtual shop shelves of the geeks over at Vat19. They come up with pretty exciting things to sell. For example, imagine cufflinks made from spent Colt .45 rounds. You don’t need to imagine because Vat19 sells them, and I can show you what they look like. […]
Is this the leaked Dell Peju tablet?
We might never know if this video is a real leak of Dell’s Peju tablet as there may be design changes still to be made. It looks real though. Why? A lot of effort on the video but not really all that much to show. A fake, I think, would have faked more. This blogger […]
Dangerous, freaky, sinister Pokemon
It’s amazing how fan activity around Pokemon is fairly strong. I guess they became a part of people’s lives for very many years, became part of geek culture and left their pokemark. I suspect these critters will leave their mark too. Massive bow to deviant artist Gavin Mackey who drew these – who re-imagined these. […]
Where are the Mantis Men in Portal 2
There was a time before Portal 2. In that time we only had Portal and teasers from Portal 2. Sometimes we had leak-style teasers; like when someone managed to film a bit of a pre-release Portal 2. That happened with Cave Johnson versus the Mantis Men. It sounded like there would be Mantis Men. So, […]
Potter Chan
Is it Jackie Chan? No. Is it Harry Potter? No. This is Potter Chan. A mashup of kung-fu magic with magic fu. This Hogwart’s action hero video is a fine example of what a sane budget can do. As I find myself posting clever videos every week I can only wonder where mainstream production can […]
Watch where you put your hands – monster bikinis
Let’s consider some topics of conversation. Zombie bikini goodness. Evil vampire bikini goodness. Werewolf bikini goodness. Strange blue and yellow monster bikini goodness. It turns out that the team at Pale Horse Designs have exactly what we need for this blog post. Thanks. Now. A word of caution. I did title this post “Watch where […]
Giant 555 timer chip is giant
Do you need an integrated circuit to fulfil your timer, oscillator applications and pulse generation needs? You may well pick up a 1970s style, Camenzind and Ball designed 555 timer chip. That’s all when and good – but these 555 timer chips (or 555 integrated circuits) are very small. Very small. Tiny. If you had […]
Chi Chi the All-Seeing Eye Dog is a tiny terror of dooooom
Imagine having a Lovecraftian watch dog. It would be an odd shape of angles and lines. It would have one, bold, brave and staring eye. It would hint at insanity. Chi Chi the All-Seeing Eye Dog has these qualities. There is, however, a problem. When coming to this dimension Chi Chi failed to grapple with […]
