Legend of Zelda Apron: Hyrule in the Kitchen

If you are looking for something to wear in the kitchen that is both geeky and sexy, I would suggest this Legend of Zelda apron. It’s dangerous to cook alone. Take this. And make me a steak dinner. Ow! You didn’t have to hit me. Please? What do you mean “Only if I dress up like Princess Zelda?”

This Zelda inspired apron comes from Etsy seller Bambinoamore, who creates beautiful aprons inspired by several popular video games, movies, and pop culture stuff. What guy wouldn’t want to see his significant other in this, whether she is in the kitchen or not.

Bambino also makes a neat Mario apron and even a Batman apron among others. They are a great way to geek up your time in the kitchen if nothing else.

X-Ray Illustrations: Cartoon Characters Exposed

Unless you’re an invertebrate, you probably have a skeleton. But even though we all have these bony structures holding us together, we still find skeletons kind of creepy. French artist Chris Panda seems to have an obsession with skeletons, having created a series of illustrations which let us see the bones of cartoon, video game, and pop culture icons.

The image of Sylvester with Tweety Bird in his stomach is pretty amusing, and Batman looks quite majestic, but Ariel’s skeleton put me in the mood to eat fish for dinner tonight. Is that wrong?

The series of images includes everyone from The Legend of Zelda’s Link, to Fionna and Cake from Adventure Time to Popeye. But the most disturbing image of all has to be this one of Miley Cyrus twerking with Beetlejuice. That’s even harder to look at than the original – now that’s an accomplishment.

Links Duke It Out In The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds

I am quite sure that any gamer worth his or her salt would appreciate the amount of hard work that goes into the development of any first party Nintendo title. For instance, Zelda has thrilled gamers for many years already, and in the latest outing known as The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds, it is said that gamers are able to duke it out with other players’ versions of Link using StreetPass. This is what we were able to gather from the most recent trailer of the game that you can view above.

As depicted in the trailer, players are able to swap Shadow Links, which happen to be ghost versions of the character, using the Nintendo 3DS’ StreetPass functionality. Once you have created your very own Shadow Link, you will be able to set up the items and number of hearts which he has and send him out. Needless to say, the more powerful a Shadow Link is, the bounty that is attached to him will be correspondingly higher should someone beat them. Once a Shadow Link is beaten, one will earn Rupees, which happens to be the game’s famous in-game currency. On the other hand, there will be no penalty for losing to these Links, making this a win-win situation for everyone. I wonder if this can be turned into a “farming” situation down the road.

    Custom Steampunk Link Action Figure (Hy)rules

    This awesome custom Link action figure has it all. Look out Ganon. You are about to have a very bad day. This amazing custom figure was made by KodyKoala, who wanted to explore what the Zelda games would be like if they were set in a steampunk universe.
    link figure
    After seeing this, I believe that he should be the one to populate that universe. He wanted to make a futuristic Link, but still keep some of the classic things that we all love. He also wanted to have a fun way for Link to carry all of his inventory. It looks like Link has about fifty some items he is carrying here.

    It took a lot of parts, so it ended up being a more expensive than he wanted. But that is why it looks so good. This figures stands about 6 inches tall. You can buy it for $300(USD) in his Etsy shop.

    Link’s Master Sword Created By Expert Blacksmith [Video]

    Nintendo is preparing to release an HD remake of its GameCube classic, The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker, in October. Judging by the recently released screenshots of the game, Nintendo is sure to have another hit on its hands, which means a new generation of Zelda fans will soon be upon us. This also means there will undoubtedly be a rise in Zelda merchandise for sale, but if you ask me, you should only buy one thing this year: Man at Arms’ Master Sword. (more…)

    Legend of Zelda Sweatshirt with Sword and Shield: Armor & Armory

    Always be prepared for a fight cosplay convention with this Legend of Zelda-inspired hoodie. Aside from being green, the hoodie also has a handsewn replica of the Hylian Shield and the Master Sword attached on its back. It also has a couple of faux leather belts connected by a buckle up front.

    You can order the hoodie from Geeky U’s online shop or from its Etsy outlet for $100 (USD). It’s a shame Geeky U didn’t upload a shot of the hoodie from the front. Or maybe that’s the front. Whoa. A maskie?

    Legend of Zelda Quilt: It’s Dangerous to Nap Alone, Take This!

    In all honesty, it’s been a while since I dusted off my original NES copy of The Legend of Zelda, but it’s still one of the all time classic video games, IMHO. But even if you don’t play the game regularly, you could have a daily reminder of Link’s adventures thanks to this awesome Legend of Zelda quilt.

    Every time you lie down on the couch to take a nap, you could snuggle up under this hand-pieced quilt by artist Kelly Jaworski. It features a detailed pixel art image of Link, and is surrounded by triangular pieces of fabric, shaped like Triforces.

    The small version of the quilt measures about 3.5 x 4.5 ft and sells for $199 (USD), while the queen-size (5.5 x 7.5 ft) version goes for $299. I wonder how many rupees that is.
