This an awesome spoof by Greenpeace that rides on the success of The Force Super Bowl that Vokswagen famously tested online first. Greenpeace UK are clearly unhappy that the car maker is not towing the line when it comes to CO2 emissions. As a result the pressure group has put together this geek friendly and […]
Star Wars: R2-D2 Operation game
Remember playing Operation? It’s one of those games we played as kids. It’s one of those games we mixed alcohol with as adults and found it was twice as fun. It seems Hasbro might be trying to up the game even further. ToyWiz will be doing brisk trade this week after the interwebs noticed they […]
That scene in Star Wars with Nyan cat in it
Nyan cat was in Star Wars, episode IV, but not many people remember it. It’s strange because it’s an important scene and Nyan cat is easy to spot. It’s the scene in which Obi Wan is trying to explain The Force to Luke. R2-D2 is nearby and seems to be watching in. After Nyan cat’s […]
Teenage Mutant Jedi Turtles
Is there something the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles could do in order to improve their fighting prowess? Short answer: yes. They could all become Jedi knights. In fact, I’m surprised the comics haven’t taken this turn. I’m pretty sure it would go well with the time travelling. via
Steampunk sub-machine gun
Neil Morrison describes this steampunk styled sub-machine gun as “first ever Steampunk build”. He’s happy with it. I don’t blame him! I really hope this is not his last. There’s a commentary on his blog and a host of images on Flickr. They’re both worth the trip over to study in detail. The pictures below […]
Princess Leia, R2-D2 and C-3PO appear in Raiders of the Lost Ark
Have you heard the urban myth that C-3PO, Princess Leia and R2-D2 appear in Raiders of the Lost Ark? It’s not a myth. They do feature. In fact, there’s a lot connecting the two films beyond the fact that the scene in which Rene Belloq and the Nazis square off against Indiana in the canyon […]
Master Jedi Yoda… is cake
This looks as good as anything Charm City Cakes might do – and that’s a high compliment because that team rocks the cake world. For this cake we have Reddit user TomTom on a Tauntaun to thank as well as the mum who made this for her kid’s 8th birthday. It’s a fantastic idea but, […]
Vader invades Disneyland
This is a cute viral candidate video for Disney’s new Star Wars themed ride – Star Tours. We see Darth Vader and two Stormtroopers arrive in Disneyland, only to find Star Tours not yet open and so have to distract themselves with the rides for a day. I’m sure if I was a Simpson’s writer […]
LEGO Star Wars sandcrawler is over a meter long
There are about 10, 000 pieces of Lego in Marshal Banana‘s Sandcrawler. He describes it has his “baby” and I can imagine why; this project must have been a labour of love! There are four xl motors in this beast, five medium motors, 4 receivers, 4 batterypacks and 22 lego LEDs. The sandcrawler weighs in […]
Star Wars do Welcome to the Jungle
I wonder what music was playing when the Empire arrived on the Forest Moon on Endor? For some reason Wagner’s Ride of the Valkyries seems approporate for the Stormtroopers. Mind you; what if the music was coming from the dangerous locals rather than the imperial forces. What if the music was Guns N Roses’ Welcome […]
