For all the revolutionary technological enhancements and breakthroughs that have augmented Tony Stark's Iron Man suits through the years, we somehow can't recall Marvel's most groundbreaking genius billionaire playboy philanthropist ever installing a few convenient USB 3.0 ports. That's an opportunity to make the ...
Tattoos are more popular than ever, real tattoos, and even temporary ones. In fact, temporary tattoos are much more popular than real ones because they aren’t permanent. However, they are still an effective way for people to express their inward selves, outwardly. If you are attracted to all things Star Wars ...

We tried, everybody. We really held out as long as we could. Yes, Halloween arrives in less than a week. Yes, we still have Thanksgiving just a month ahead. Despite taking all that into consideration, you need to remember there are two things we instinctively nerd-out over at the drop of a hat: Star Wars and Hallmark ...
The Original Stormtrooper Decanter might just lay claim to the only time in Star Wars history when the infamous Imperial foot soldiers could be considered synonymous with the phrase, "Hits the spot." When it's time to raise a toast to the Emperor and his dependably cheap refusal to spring for armor with greater ...
In its most ornate practices, manscaping is a delicate, expressive art that can transform a man's facial features into a striking representation of individual masculinity. Artful trimming demands the steady hand of a Bonsai gardener. We're pretty sure we aren't the only ones whose freehand pruning results in facial ...
If the month leading up to Christmas is America's manic salute to gift-giving, marketing, and capitalism, then Halloween is our annual roasting of all things pop-culture. Costumed kids travel from door to door and collect mountains of candy to bury the odd toothbrush, religious tract, or box of raisins. Meanwhile, ...
Wearing these ThinkGeek-original Chewbacca Slippers always reminds us of what our fathers used to tell us about rubbing a rabbit's foot for good luck: "It wasn't so lucky for the rabbit, was it?" They might let loose with two authentic, different Wookie sounds as we walk when we have them switched on, but they ...
Drone innovation is starting to take on the makings of a damned arms race. Every new model we highlight seems like it outstrips the previous one's maneuverability, speed, aerodynamics, and ancillary features by magnitudes. Fortunately, we're at a loss to imagine anyone coming up with something more functional for its ...
Every kid loves to play with water pistols, especially on hot days, but the fun stops as soon as the sun goes down and it gets dark outside. With the SplashLight the fun never has to stop, even when it gets dark outside. Introducing the first water pistol that uses ReLumes to make water actually light up, by ...
Have you ever looked at your watch and felt that it was earlier than later? Well, that nearly proves time is relative, just like Albert Einstein figured-out, although it may not seem like it when you observe the face of the Relativity Watch. This is one unusually working time piece that is always on-time, although ...
Any fan of the movie ‘Back to the Future’ would love to go back to the past – 1985, when the movie was released and grab some memorabilia from that time, and then bring it into the future, now. Well, it is possible to bring a little piece of the past, back to the future, now, with Doc Brown’s futuristic flux ...
What is the deal lately all the miniature nostalgic gaming cabinets and consoles? Hey, we have an even better question: who the crispity-crunchity hell cares? Between the Mini-NES and an actual competitive market for scaled-down working arcade cabinets, portable gaming has taken on whole new dimensions. Literally. ...
Tinkerers experience science fiction fandom from a slightly skewed perspective. Our own friends look at escapist or speculative fiction ranging from the works of Jules Verne, Isaac Asimov, and Philip K. Dick to "Star Trek" and "Iron Man" and think to themselves, "Nah, never." Meanwhile, we sit beside them and think to ...
As one of this century’s biggest phenomena – podcasting, people anywhere can reach out to the world, to express themselves, their opinions and to promote literally anything under the sun. However, the only things that truly holds people back from developing a fun podcast hobby into a ‘real’ business production is ...
The drone industry is constantly evolving, with trends and consumer demands pushing towards smaller designed units that are easier to carry.

Before you shop these Star Wars bedroom decor options from Rooms To Go Kids, just know this: we reserve the burning hatred of the Dark Side for any child that gets to fall asleep every night in a black X-Wing twin bookcase bed. It's nothing personal, we swear. Those are just our wildest childhood dreams. No big ...
The late Jim Henson's name typically isn't considered synonymous with nostalgic nightmare fuel. Of course, someone then has to bring up "The Dark Crystal" and we have to ask ourselves all over again why the father of the Muppets and "Sesame Street" would show us such things. It's no wonder at all that we're ...
Ah, yes. The scene George Lucas deleted from "Return Of The Jedi" and refuses to speak of to this day: after his sad-sack moment cremating his father on the forest moon of Endor passes and his sister comes along to Force-lift his spirits - this time, non-incestuously, now that Han is wise to things he probably wishes ...

Hello, San Dimas! For what our opinions are worth, there are two kinds of people in this world: people who acknowledge "Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure" as the single greatest comedy ever made and those who can make convincing arguments for "Wayne's World." Sure, it's a mindset that has gotten us rejected from ...

This Death Star Popcorn Maker is a Death Star that air-pops scrumptious, fluffy popcorn. That's about as plain as descriptions get. It doesn't employ space-age laser weapons to obliterate friends who won't close his Pit of Carkoon during movies. You can't engage a tractor beam to float the salt to you. It heats the ...
If "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" taught us absolutely nothing else, we know that the First Order is already at the disadvantage of being led by a Sith apprentice with roughly the temperament of an unhinged One Direction fan. Little Ben Solo grew up so ardently worshipping the ground his grandfather Darth Vader was ...
With age, comes the gift of seeing the passage of time from a different perspective. Of course, if you find yourself feeling every day of your years and noting that this sort of enlightenment still hasn't quite sunk in, the NIXIE Tube Clock Watch offers a whole new way to open your eyes. If $710.11 seems like a ...
Halloween costumes are a surprisingly strong display of anyone's ingenuity and dedication. Seriously, anybody can put on a certain red and black licensed hoodie and proclaim themselves "Deadpool." Hey, we won't even claim we're opposed to that tack. However, you can always tell who stepped outside the box and ...
The sense of smell is more influential than people realize, the brain uses it to stimulate body functions, and as a means to record and store memories. You may notice this when you smell fragrances or other type of smells that evoke old memories, such as a certain home cooked meal, a new car smell, the perfume smell ...
We all eventually tell the generations that come after us, "Don't be in such a hurry to grow up." Here's one time we will gladly rescind that advice: this Star Trek Planetary Glassware set combines the joy of drinking with learning about other solar systems in a style no elementary science classroom will ever equal. ...
Quick question: do you think Batman ever takes car-naps? You know, just parks the Batmobile someplace quiet mid-patrol and dozes off? If we had the good fortune to lay our heads down each and every night in one of these Batmobile Beds from Pottery Barn for Kids, that's exactly where our imaginations would go. Come ...
Every four years, Breast Cancer Awareness Month immediately precedes a U.S. presidential election. Considering the two drooling tits we're about to choose between to reign over our country's executive branch, the stars could never align more perfectly to showcase something called the "Boob Cube." Logic doesn't ...

Every child is one embarrassing case of excessive hair growth away from being an Ewok. There are more than a few adoption agencies who refuse to deal with us because we've expressed a vocal preference for hirsutism six-year-olds with hirsutism. Fortunately, this Ewok Kids' Beanie offers us an alternative. Now, our ...

People wonder why we refuse to grow complacently into adulthood. Why would we? Look at all the cool stuff 10-year-olds get to wear that we would have to give up.

Not so many years ago, coin fed arcade video games were everywhere, and in the ‘beginning’ of video gaming, Space Invaders was the best game in town. Today, kids of all ages are rediscovering older 8 bit video games that their parents and grandparents used to play. Despite the older retro graphics, older retro arcade ...
Just about any day can be a good day to die. There's never any honor in bearing one's nerdy armaments in a messenger bag that says anything less than, "Brute strength is not the most important asset in a fight, and I am not a geek to be trifled with." The sigil stamped on this Klingon Messenger Bag's front flap is ...

If ever there were a character-appropriate gem among licensed Star Wars merchandise, our nod goes to this R2-D2 Coffee Press. Why, you ask? Simple: the great Anthony Daniels did far too fantastic a job bringing C3PO's mincing, effeminate whining to life. Lots of people have their champions of pity throughout the ...
The Parrot Swing promises us "the power of a plane, the ease of a quadcopter." Idle hands such as ours are not meant for such power. We've presented some incredible remote flyers lately, but this minidrone's marriage of maneuverability with stunning speed lends it more to bombing runs and dogfights with any and ...
Have you had a ‘hard’ day, working for the evil empire that is run by Sith Lords? Well, you’re not alone, you’re probably looking for something cold to drink, just like everyone else laboring under the blazing hot sun of Tatooine.

From Turkish Transformers to a working backyard recreation of the furnaces of Isengard and a barbecue the size of a Hummer, if it belches smoke, we want a dozen units of it. If you can't tell from our most recent posts, we're also quite fond of gently improving the Star Wars saga within the warmth of our personal ...
As much as we're charmed by those adorable little coin banks that have a little cat or raccoon or some other cutesy creature peek out of a lid and slip a paw out to quickly "steal" our change, we couldn't be more thankful that the Alien "Big Chap" Bust Bank is just a chillingly detailed vinyl statue. Can you imagine ...
There are many drones ‘flying’ the friendly skies today, and they are mostly used for flying fun. Drones come in many shapes and sizes, not to mention their capabilities vary a lot, with cheaper models designed for kid type amusement, more advanced ‘adult’ models can flying higher and perform more accurate aerial ...
Listen to us very carefully, people of Earth: we won't be the least bit proud to have chosen Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton as our next President of the United States, but whichever turns out to be the lesser of two chuckleheads, look upon these preserved severed heads while you digest both the good and bad news of ...
Here's the biggest upside of these Star Wars Jawa Lawn Ornaments: sure, Jawas could hardly be called authorities on keeping anyone's grass green, but our lead operative in Arizona tells us that he's based a drinking game on taking a shot every time his neighbors double-take at seeing them posed with a "captured" ...
We can now say we have gambled alongside our all-time favorite Marvel superheroes. That time we cosplayed as Gambit clones and all ended up naked after losing at Strip Go-Fish to that guy pretending to be The Purple Man doesn't count. OK, so it didn't exactly pan out like we would have hoped. In our dreams, we have ...
It’s true, a genuine artist can make art out of nearly anything, although, the most common form of artwork that most people use to outwardly express their inner creativeness is through drawing.
