Friday, June 19th, 2009Just because you have the rights to a license… doesn’t mean you should use it.

Geek Loot: Life-Size Star Wars Imperial Biker Scout
Thursday, June 11th, 2009What’s eleven feet long, made of wood, plastic, and fiberglass, and reeks of virginity and Peter Pan syndrome?
It’s a “highly-accurate” 1:1 scale replica of an Imperial Biker Scout and his Speeder Bike from Return of the Jedi. And you can bid on it in this Ebay auction.
