Merry Christmas! What? It’s not Christmas yet? Forgive me, I’m Jewish. Here’s a nativity scene done with Star Wars LEGOs that brightened my day. Luke and Leia are collectively baby Jesus and even the infamous IG-88 makes an appearance. The creator of this nativity scene, Larry Lars, advises that anyone trying make their own should “find balance” between the traditional scene and Star Wars, itself. Link [via]

Not feeling well this morning but this certainly cheered me up. It seems that basketball star Shaquille O’Neal has his own Twitter account and some of the shit he’s been saying is hilarious. His feed can be found at twitter.com/THE_REAL_SHAQ. Here’s a few choice tweets from the Space Jam alumni: “Detective oneal does not jordan vander sloots story about what happened to natalee” “Mark crow, larry jones, and i recieved 36 thousand jars of peanut butta tonite at victory church...

Plush toys have never really gotten any more elaborate than any other stuffed animal. Sure, you could get a plush re-creation of your favorite Pokemon or go with the creative Food Chain Friends, but a plush toy is a plush toy. Nothing more, nothing less. Now, if you coupled your average plush toy with a home planetarium, that would make things more interesting. The Twilight Turtle is just that, a plush toy with a light projector that projects twinkling stars... Continue reading

Star Wars MMO, round two! LucasArts managed to completely destroy any redeeming concept that a MMORPG held in the Star Wars universe, with help from Sony Online Entertainment. Forget Star Wars Galaxies because a new Star Wars MMO has been announced and it’s going to take place in the time frame of Star Wars: The Knights Of The Old Republic. I didn’t know that different time frames require seperate liscensing for the same series or is this just a way... Continue reading

Hailing frequencies are open for these two nutcrackers modeled after Star Trek‘s Kirk and Spock.

Torture dogs much? Then you’ll get a kick out of this Darth Vader costume for your canine companion. Despite this dog resembling the likeness of Darth Sidius rather than his apprentice, we approve of dogs dressed up in Star Wars-themed costumes. We only wish there were even more sci-fi costumes available for our pets. Hit the jump to see what I mean.

Most of the home theaters we’ve seen offer little more than a large picture and crisp, quality sound. However, it is Monday and as such, an obligatory Star Wars post was bound to show up. Today, we acknowledge Steve Simon’s love for Star Wars and the dedication he (and a few friends) put into this Star Wars-themed home theater system. It took them about a year and a half to turn Steve’s garage into Chancellor Palpatine’s office, complete with computer-generated... Continue reading

For every Wii game released there exists a useless peripheral for the Wiimote. Wii Sports received those lame themed extensions for the controller just so that when you’re flailing your arms around like an idiot, you’ve got a greater chance of hitting someone. The release of Star Wars: The Force Unleashed is no exception to this fact. For $20 bucks, you can equip two Wiimotes with lightsaber extensions to bring a whole new feel of immersion to your game. Or,... Continue reading

In a world of good-guy smugglers and noble Jedi, one Sith must instill fear any way he can. That’s why Darth Vader built this hot air balloon. Not just because the town fare is approaching and Vader wanted to make sure he’ll be soaring high next to the Yogi bear and Batman inflatables but because Vader wishes to scare away would-be padawan learners with his hot air balloon visage.  Be careful: one collision with a Star Destroyer and it’s all...

This might look like a miniature Death Star but, in actuality, it’s a top secret spy cam. The DVR CamBall is the first ever digital video camera and MP3 player that’s as small as a ping-pong ball and able to record at 320×240 or 640×480 resolutions. What better way to sneak a camera into top-secret facilities than to roll it under the door. Unfortunately, once it’s out of your grasp their is little you can do to aim it. That’s... Continue reading
