Thursday, July 15th, 2010Cheers to Alex Eylar for creating this M.C. Escher-inspired Lego scene. Though the “outer space” theme somewhat mitigates for me the usual delightfully-mind-boggling nature of Escher’s work. I mean, astronauts are supposed to walk sideways in space, right? Via Brothers Brick, who doesn’t know about this whole “boggling” thing, but is always up for a good [...]
Tastes Like Frozen Despair: Han Solo in Carbonite Cake [Geeky Cake]
Thursday, July 15th, 2010Debbie Goard of Debbie Does Cakes (last seen in the vicinity of the Left 4 Dead cake) crafted this Han Solo in carbonite cake. For, like… a birthday or something. Definitely a party of some sort. Yeah. Certainly an impressive piece, but I’m looking forward to the advancement of Han Solo carbonite cake-making technology. This and previous efforts have [...]

Not because I’m particularly enthralled by steampunk, but because I know some of you are, and I love [...]

Wednesday, July 14th, 2010Four-hundred of these mini (4-inch-tall) Star Wars cereal boxes will be handed out at random times during the “Star Wars collecting” panels at Celebration V from August 12-15. While I’m glad to see Jabba and the Wampa got their dues, I feel like Admiral Ackbar was born to pitch cereal. (“It’s a trap! Of golden, [...]
Pandering Powers, Activate!: Adorable Little Girl’s Chun-Li Costume [Cosplay]
Wednesday, July 14th, 2010An adorable little girl in a Chun Li costume from Street Fighter. That sound you’re hearing is the breaking of your will to resent me in spite of your mild disgust with my obvious pandering with this unreasonable dollop of adorbz. (Sounds a bit like dolphins crying, doesn’t it?) I think we can all agree [...]
