When I was a boy countless books, films and television shows depicted the 21st century as being full of technological innovations such as flying cars and robot servants. So far these haven’t come to pass (to any significant degree anyway) but that’s not to say technology hasn’t been advancing in the right direction. Computers have […]
Is Slave Leia real?
The first of these two pictures were surfaced by the native geeks of Reddit. There were three things the community liked about the picture; the sexy slave Leia, Boba Fett and the fact these were pretty much duct tape costumes. As is common the cries of “faked!” and “shopped!” soon started to rise to the […]

Anthrobots: Steampunk insects built from bullets
Some geeky creations are so great that they count as art. Step up artist Tom Hardwidge and the anthrobots. You can’t buy these via an ecommerce system yet but you can email Tom and discuss a commission. Clicking on any of these will open a larger image. There are, of course, more on Tom’s site […]
Mighty Star Wars Lego diorama
I think Lego artist Jay Hoff requires some serious praise for this impressive Star Wars diorama. This set uses more than 30,000 bricks and nearly 400 minifigs (388, actually). Check out the walls on the scene; they’re lego too. If you’re familiar with the Lego set which contains the spacecraft you’ll have an idea of […]
Darth Vader urinal stalks the loo
Not sure what to say about this picture. Actually, well, I’ve seen urinals been taken out of order by the application of a black bag. It’s a good method. It’s a good method even if some geek native comes along with some printed Darth Vader acccessories and a witty note to complete the transformation. Luke, […]
The Dreamcatcher: Steampunk Nerf gun
There is very little doubt; this gun is a work of art. It’s also fully functional. The good thing is that you get to shoot this gun without a license as its a modified Nerf Maverick. The gun was built by ProfessorCaTPardus who runs an Etsy Store. Bad news. The gun has already been sold […]
Hell Girl and Babe Sapien
These aren’t Hell Boy and Abe Sapien but they’re still fantastic cosplay. These pictures show A_Riddle as Hell Girl aka HellGrrl and Idleambition as Babe Sapien. I highly recommend checking through both of those Flickr accounts when you have time. What do you think? Via the increasingly popular Geeks are Sexy.

Gatling slingshot
The Slingshot Channel has featued on Geek Native before. We’ve had a machette firing slingshot – a video in which Jorg Sprave manages to cut his arm open. There’s no such accidents in this “full auto” slingshot but I notice how bashed up his hands are. Jorg has a dangerous hobby. It’s a dangerous hobby […]
