He’s squat, he’s got tusks, twin blades, much honor, and he is on the hunt for Han Solo. He is Samurai Fett. This sweet custom made Star Wars inspired Boba Fett samurai action figure was created by Emmanuel Pérez del Río, and it looks amazing.

This thing kicks ass. There’s no way that this Fett wouldn’t have survived the Sarlacc pit. Be sure to hit up that link above because there are a ton of images of this one and other awesome samurai figures he has created.

This guy needs to get with a toy company and let the masses enjoy playing with these things. I’d love to see a whole series of Samurai Star Wars characters.

Loewe has staked its success in the TV market on personalized designs, and it’s taking that concept to its logical extreme with the upcoming Reference ID. First shown at IFA last year, the LCD set is now due to reach the UK in July with progressively wilder customization options. Owners will only have a choice of covers for the built-in 160W speaker at first, they’ll get frame selections later in the summer, and full customization of materials and patterns this fall — if they want a set housed in leather and gold, it can happen. Conformists might still be happy with the Reference ID between its 3D-ready 400Hz panel, media streaming and a dual-channel DVR with 1TB of space. Loewe’s adaptable design won’t be cheap for discerning Brits, however: 40-, 46- and 55-inch variants will respectively cost £4,500, £5,500 and £6,500 ($7,007, $8,564 and $10,121), and that’s before applying a personal touch.

What do you get your fiancee when you are both Star Wars fans? Well, you could get her a boxed set of movies, but a steampunk AT-AT is an even better idea. Too bad it doesn’t actually spew smoke. That’s just some clever Photoshopping.

Broken Journalist made this awesome AT-AT to give to his fiance as an engagement present and thereby assaulted her cold Hoth heart. I’m sure her heart is fine, but it never hurts to present an amazing gift to the one you love.

It actually started out as a vintage AT-AT toy. I love the patina on this thing, which took a bunch of coats of paint to create. You gotta love that widow’s walk on top too.

USB drives come in all shapes and sizes. Unfortunately, not all of them can be labeled. Whether you want to put on a name label or indicate what type of files are inside, you often won’t be able to do so because the drives are usually too small to fit a label on.

One option would be these fun-looking and uber-colorful drives.

They’re from FormURLife, where you can buy these unique and personalized USB drives that’ll let you easily distinguish which USB drive is yours, since you can have it spell out your name. They also help in organizing your drives based on their contents.

Whatever you want your USB drive to spell out, they can make it happen. The only limitation is that you can choose only up to 10 characters – but that shouldn’t be too hard. They also state that some of the designs may be fragile, so you’ll need to be careful not to toss around your drive too much.

You can also go with the Shift USB drive, which offers the option to have your name spin or slide inside of the drive – though it’s limited to 8 characters.

The drives are available in 8GB, 16GB, and 32GB capacities. They’re priced at $36, $42, and $50 (USD), respectively.

What kind of guitar will you be rocking when the zombie apocalypse strikes? Travis Stevens is ready to take on the undead with this awesome guitar.

This guitar is decorated bullets, grenades, blood splatter and lots of zombie heads. Travis built this Fender Stratocaster guitar with the knowledge that one day we will have to face the hoards of zombies. On the back, it has a door with the words “Keep out, Dead Inside”.

Aside from providing some musical distracation while hiding from zombies, this thing could be used as a sweet weapon if you really needed it and it would only add more blood spatter to the design. If I had to use an axe to kill zombies, it would be this one.
