They measure about 2.1” x 1.25”. Either have your own LEGO arcade or mix them with your other LEGO sets. Maybe you wanted to see an arcade inside of Hogwarts. Or maybe you feel that Jabba’s palace was in need of a TRON machine. The possibilities are endless.

TARDIS and Tentacle Monster Bookends Are a Doctor Who Double Feature

This set of  bookends takes me back to the classic era of Doctor Who. I mean, there is a large tentacle monster, the TARDIS, a bunch of pipes and some barrels, all in a creepy castle-like room. This is like having an instant adventure on your shelf, holding up your collection of Doctor Who books.

There is good news and bad news regarding these bookends however. The bad news is that awesome as they are, these particular handmade bookends have been sold, but the good news is that its creator – Theophilus Saxe’s Emporium will make pretty much anything you want so if you ask, they could probably make another one for you.

Cardboard Robots: Paper Beats Metal

I’ve seen my share of sci-fi movies and I know how giant robots can be pretty imposing. But these robots made from cut cardboard look like they couldn’t really do any damage – even the deadly, but tragically-flawed ED-209 from Robocop.

These awesome little cardboard robots were made by Etsy artist Cardboard Myth, and they’re the perfect thing for your desktop toy collection, don’cha think? I sure do. In addition to ED-209, you can find a Gundam-style mech, as well as a couple of totally original creations.

What’s really impressive about these robots is that they all offer articulated limbs, so you can position them like plastic action figures.

Just be careful not to get them wet, and definitely keep them away from open flames. Paper robots hate fire.

You can start building your own cardboard robot army over at Cardboard Myth’s Etsy shop, where these each sell for about $34(USD).

Darth Vader and Boba Fett Character Curtains: The Dark Side of Your Windows

Now that you have seen these cool Darth Vader and Boba Fett character curtains, it will be curtains… for your old curtains. Does that make sense? These unusual curtains are designed for kids and geeks who are sick of looking at boring window treatments in their room. Seeing a Star Wars bad guy in the window is much cooler than some crappy plastic vertical blinds.

They could be kind of scary to some kids I guess, but they look pretty sweet to me. Vader looks super ominous backlit in sunlight, while Boba Fett just looks like business as usual, showing up to collect a bounty.

These neat curtains come from Etsy artist CanCreate who will sell you the pair for $100(USD). Hopefully they won’t be too scary staring down at you at night.

Felted Mini Star Wars AT-AT (All Terrain-Adorable Transport)

Is this not the cutest little AT-AT you’ve ever seen? Why, this little guy would never march forward to the Imperial March theme and lay waste to Rebel forces. He just wouldn’t have it in him. All of the other AT-ATs talk about trampling the rebel scum, but this guy just wants to have peace and smell some flowers. Maybe make friends with a Tauntaun or two.
sad at at 620x413magnify

He is an outcast. He’s just not like the rest. And that makes him sad. Now you see why he has his head down. This adorable AT-AT comes from Etsy artist famished and is about 5″ long and 6″ high.

sad at at1 620x413magnify

He would look good sitting on your desk or shelf. I mean, he’s gonna look sad no matter what I guess, but he is cute and will look good with your other collectibles and toys. You can grab him up for $85(USD). The seller has only made two in this style so when they are gone, that’s it.

All of the other AT-ATs (and General Veers) used to last and call him names. They wouldn’t let poor felty join in any AT-AT games.

Turn Your Fridge into a Vintage Arcade Cabinet

Sadly, most of us don’t have room – or the spare cash – for a proper arcade cabinet in our homes. It is still fun to pretend though. And now through the magic of decals and Etsy you can turn your fridge into a retro arcade cabinet.
arcade fridgemagnify

These awesome decals sell for $39.99 a set from Etsy seller Walking Dead Promotions and they will remind you of the good old days every time you open the fridge. Each decal is self-adhesive vinyl and they are easy to apply. They can also be easily removed and leave no residue, aside from the residue of nostalgia.

You don’t even have to insert a coin to snack. Now if you can just make the rest of your kitchen look like an arcade, you will be all set.

Princess Leia and Han Solo Declare Their Timeless Love with Clocks

When Han and Leia are forced to be away from each other, at least they will know that each of them truly loves the other thanks to this pair of clocks proclaiming that love. Han hangs his in the Millenium Falcon, while Leia hangs hers in whatever diplomatic offices she happens to reside in.
han leia clock 620x471magnify

That pair is so cute. After all of these years, they are still saying that classic line to each other – despite one of them being a scoundrel and a scruffy little nerf herder. Only now they use clocks. If you and your mate are like Leia and Han, but forced to be apart, you will want these clocks as a constant reminder.

This pair of clocks comes from Etsy seller Objectindustrialart and will cost you $25.50(USD). Not bad for two clocks that remind you of your special other.

Godzilla: One Ring to Stomp Them All

Godzilla is an awesome creature. What’s not to like about a huge-ass monster stomping around Tokyo fighting other monsters, while they lay waste to the city? If Godzilla wore jewelry on his reptilian digits, you know he would wear one of these amazing rings and punch Mothra’s face in with it.

godzilla ring 1 620x846magnify

This custom silver Godzilla ring is hand-carved and cast from Sterling silver by Etsy artist UrbanHunting. You can choose sizes 8 through 12 and it will cost you $500(USD). This is a hefty ring obviously, because Godzilla is one hefty Kaiju. This isn’t some skinny ring for Hobbits.

I would suggest finding some other monster rings and arranging daily fights across your knuckles, if you can find someone who makes them anyway. I guess for now, you’ll just be rocking Godzilla all by himself.
