Hasta La Gadget!

When it comes to kitchen appliances, women want colors that match their decor. Men want what they usually want. Something cool that looks nothing like what women want. Preferably, their kitchen appliances should look like Boba Fett. That’s why Tommyfilth talked his wife into buying a broken old Kitchenaid for Christmas. It would soon get a super nice makeover.

Soon he refurbished it into this Boba Fett Mixer. It’s got some excellent battle-worn armor and it mixes batter like there was a bounty on baked goods. I’m sure they have already made their share of Star Wars cookies and cakes with this thing.

Okay Disney, your move – let’s see some more officially licensed Star Wars appliances now.

Geeks who have babies are always looking for ways to pass on their geek ways. Like getting your child interested in Star Wars from an early age. One good way to instill a love of Star Wars in your child is to have them sleep every night under an awesome mobile like this one.

Loaded with six spaceships, eight planets, and a moon (that’s no moon!) this entire mobile is hand made by Etsy artist Sheep Creek Needlecraft, who will customize it for every order. If you want one for your child, just be aware that it will take 4-6 weeks to make and it will cost you the hefty sum of $380(USD).

It’s totally worth it though, to see all of those fuzzy ships above your child’s crib indoctrinating him or her into a wonderful world of geekery.

Does your pizza have a face? No? Well, it could, if you wanted to give it one. Introducing paintyourpizza.com, where you can show off your mad paint skills and have it turned into an actual pizza pie.

Conceived by Jonas Lund, the Paint Your Pizza concept is simple: just log on to the site, paint a pizza with whoever else is online or paint one yourself, and click to order. You can expect your custom-drawn pizza to arrive hot and hopefully tasty at your door in no time.

I don’t really see any option on the site where you can choose what toppings to put on your painted pizza. I suggest using green sparingly though, unless you prefer a pizza covered all over in leaves and veggies. I’ve posted some of my favorite designs in the gallery below, but there are lots of other fun pizza designs over on the Paint Your Pizza gallery too.

Depending on the complexity of your drawing and the types of ingredients they’d have to use, prices for 18-inch pizzas start at about $30(USD) – assuming there’s a local pizzeria available to do the job. You can have a similarly-sized pie from Pizza Hut delivered to your door for about $13, so yeah, you do the math and see if this novelty is worth it.

What do you do with all of those boxes left over from your countless Amazon orders and other cardboard lying around your house? Don’t just throw them into the recycling bin. Do like this guy did, and build a giant badass robot. Like this one. Yep, this is a 10-foot-tall Optimus Prime made out of recycled cardboard.

Well, cardboard, glue and masking tape. This ‘Cardboard Prime’ was built by Pwarner184, who obviously knows how to work cardboard into geek magic. The shaping of the cardboard is great, and I love how he did the details with masking tape. This is truly papercraft on an epic scale.

If any cardboard Decepticons come anywhere near this house, there will be cardboard flying everywhere as Optimus Prime defends his turf. The only things this robot fears are rain, mildew and perhaps an industrial shredder.

This Ghostbusters headquarters was recreated in LEGO by Orion Pax and it is amazingly detailed. As you can see, it has all of the rooms, including the fireman’s pole for LEGO figures to slide down. And yes, Ecto 1 is inside there as well.

This thing is so intricate, there is even fake food in the kitchen. One room has a Staypuft Marshmallow Man poster on the wall. The rooms even have LEGO radiators for fake heating.

I could talk all day about the amazing details in this HQ, but you should really hit the link and check out some more images. It is the coolest thing you will see all day.

This HQ is alive!
