Real-Life Mario Piranha Plant Will Likely Eat Your Pets

mariopiranha

Created by artist and avid gamer Kalapusa, this life-sized Piranha Plant illustrates what life might be like if we lived in a world closer to Mario’s world.

Composed of a special mix of acrylics, clay and a strengthened wire skeleton, I wouldn’t get too close to this thing with any animals lighter than 50 lbs. It’s looking mighty hungry. This plant creeps me out sort of like how wax museums creep me out. It has that uncanny thing going on.

Handmade Star Trek Starfleet Toddler Uniform

Insanely awesome Craftster user Rinnial handmade this insanely awesome Starfleet uniform (circa 2366-2372 class A uniform) for her toddler daughter to wear this Halloween.

My kid would be wearing this all year round, whether they liked it or not. I’m the parent, I know best, now shut up and let the Tribble out for a walk before it shits all over our handmade rug.

Star Wars Finger Puppets

starwarsfingerpuppets

These googly eyed Star Wars Finger Puppets would be awesome for performing a one-man puppet show, recreating the Star Wars trilogy in its entirety. Sure, there might be a very small audience sitting through the whole thing, but imagine the epicness.

Each puppet costs about $1 to make, factoring in the cost of the felt and a few drops of glue. You can easily make your own if you’re into the whole crafting thing. For extra points, add zombiness.
