Keanu Reeves is one of the many celebrities who have been turned into a meme. The Sad Keanu meme came to be a couple of years back after someone snapped a picture of Keanu sitting alone on a park bench, looking particularly downcast. While Keanu explained that he’s not sad or depressed, the meme lives on.

And now it lives on in another form: a 3D printed figurine.

Now fans, Redditors, collectors, and absolutely anyone who finds the meme amusing can own a figure of Sad Keanu to play with, display, or take pictures of in all sorts of weird scenarios and set-ups. Check out the images below for a sampling of what has been done so far with the Sad Keanu 3D figure.

You gotta love the internet.

The 3D printed Sad Keanu figure is available from Shapeways for $45(USD). Cough up the cash or print your own!

ThinkGeek is intent on getting us all ready for the zombie apocalypse. They will sell you the Crovel or Crovel II which will certainly come in handy to take on the zombie hoard. A new tool has turned up that looks even more impressive than the Crovel, called the NAX 2.0.

The NAX 2.0 is a multitool that can function as a hatchet, machete, and a kukuri knife. I don’t know what that last one is, but it sounds really cool. The handle of the NAX 2.0 can be used as a pry bar so you can open any wood crates of Twinkies you might run across.

The handle also has a bottle opener, which is key to surviving the zombie apocalypse. Few things are worse than running across the last beer in the world and not having a bottle opener. The handle also has a gas shut off wrench, I guess that will help to burn up some zombies or cook Ramen soup to enjoy with your beer. Plus, the handle is wrapped in 550 paracord, which is perfect for setting booby traps and strangling the undead.

The Nax 2.0 is available from ThinkGeek for $149.99(USD).

Reddit dweller Webberley made an action figure of Yes Man, the Claptrap of the Fallout universe. Webberley made the action figure out of cardboard, wood, plastic and various parts from other action figures. His arms, for example, were from a Dr. Octopus action figure.

Here’s a few more shots of the walking, talking infinite scrap metal mine.

Webberley said he’s made around 50 custom action figures over the years, including ones based on other Fallout characters.

I am not a fan of Valentine’s Day. My wife always wants something expensive or changes her mind 57 times until I can’t remember what she wanted and I give up. I stopped buying flowers because the evil florists up the price of roses so much during the lead up to V-Day and the things will cut you with thorns and die in two days anyway.

I think I am going to go with the Plush Kitten Bouquet this year.

This is just about what it sounds like. You can give your lady nine plush kittens. Being plush they are much more docile than real kittens, which wouldn’t likely appreciate being mounted on sticks, or shipped via UPS for that matter.

The kitties can be removed from the sticks so you still have evidence six months down the road that you actually bought your girl a gift. The kitty bouquet is available now for $49.99(USD), which is cheaper than a dozen real roses in the weeks leading up to Valentine’s Day.

Jimmy aka 6kyubi6 made a working Star Wars-themed pinball machine using LEGO. Aside from its moving parts and different colored lights, the machine also has various minifigs and figures of Star Wars characters, including Luke, Darth Vader, Chewie, Artoo and even Jabba the Hutt.

Jimmy made the machine for a Brickpirate contest. Here’s a shot of the machine all lit up:

There’s a short video of the machine in action below, as well as more images of the pinball machine on his Flickr page.
