Nintendo Controller Promise Ring: Controller Commitment

With this ring I thee promise to play on no other console, no matter how next gen she is or how stacked she is in the spec department. I also promise to never blow on a cartridge that came out of another console’s port. In short, I do.

The “Intendo” ring was created by Paul Michael Designs and it is an amazingly beautiful design that Nintendo fans will fall in love with. Look at that gold D-Pad with gemstone buttons.

This is truly the One Ring.

Star Wars Wedding Rings: Do You Take This Droid?

When getting married with Star Wars rings, you certainly have many choices nowadays, but for my money, nothing beats putting a Rancor on her finger. Maybe some women would prefer a restraining bolt for the groom to always remind him to restrain himself and be faithful too.

These are but a few of sixteen officially-licensed Star Wars ring designs by JAP, a Japanese design firm. They also have Darth Vader, Chewbacca, Ackbar, Jabba the Hutt and more. The Rancor is the best though. Nothing says marriage like being dropped into a pit with a huge ferocious beast.

An Ewok ring might be good too. A reminder that even if your significant other is small, they can still be ferocious and you should always be on guard.

Pony and Brony Wedding Rings: Jewelry is Magic

Ponies and Bronies getting married? I guess it does happen. Friendship is magic after all, and can lead to marriage if you find the right pony. These rings were made by Jason, a metalsmith who makes My Little Pony-themed jewelry and sells it over on Etsy. pony rings 620x484magnify

He made these rings for Samantha J. Stroh and her fiance. Jason designed the rings with 3Design CAD/CAM software and formed them with a milling machine. The woman’s ring has the cutie mark of Princess Cadence and the men’s ring has a cutie mark of Shining Armor. If you are a fan, you will know that those ponies were married in the episode “A Canterlot Wedding.”

You learn something new everyday. In fact, my manliness is leveling down as I write this.

Smarty Ring An Indiegogo Project Waiting To Be Funded

Sauron’s One Ring proved to be his downfall, but when he had it, he was nigh unstoppable. The thing is, that ring was meant to rule them “all”, but when one takes a step out of the realm of fiction and into the real world, what do we end up with? Here is an Indiegogo project that I personally hope to see realized – the Smarty Ring, which is the ring to rule the world of wearable tech. All right, maybe rule is too strong a word, and complement might be better. The Smarty Ring happens to be a stainless steel ring with an LED display, Bluetooth 4.0 connectivity thrown into the mix, all measuring 13mm wide and accompanied by a smartphone app.

Needless to say, the Smarty Ring will pair up with a smartphone, where it will then double up as a remote control as well as a notification receiver. With the smartwatch already having such a small viewing area, what more a ring, one will really wonder whether the Smarty Ring will end up being as useful as it has been touted to be, or more of a flashy, one-off tech device that would die a quick death. The ring’s display will show off the time, accept or reject calls, control music, trigger the smartphone’s camera, and initiate speed-dial calls, not to mention alert you using light-up icons that are different when it comes to texts, e-mails, Facebook, Twitter, Google Hangouts, and Skype. Any takers? [Smarty Ring Project Page]

    Interlocking Ring Set Shows That You Both Truly Belong Together

    Interlocking Ring Set Shows That You Both Truly Belong TogetherDon’t you just love weddings? The songs, the people, food, and of course, the beautiful bride and groom who are really the stars for the day. It is two become one from that auspicious day forth, as both of them share the same family name, not to mention bank account (although some couples do take a different approach). Most weddings would also see the ceremony which features an exchange of rings to signify their unending and unbroken love for one another, and with the $150 Interlocking Ring Set, it would be the ideal rings for Lego lovers.

    Why do I say so? Well, the Interlocking Ring Set is obviously inspired by Lego, and it would make for quite the gift for those who want something special this coming holidays. Specially created by Etsy user Shannon Conrad, these are hand-crafted rings which have been made from 100% recycled and locally sourced sterling silver. These are hand cast, and one Lego brick is sacrificed each time a ring is created, since the original brick would be destroyed. Pretty cool stuff, really. I can imagine placing one of those Lego figurines on top of the ring as a topper of sorts that will really deliver quite a comical effect.

    Dinosaur Bone Wedding Bands Mark the Extinction of Your Single Life

    A diamond is forever, so how special is that? Anyone can get a diamond. You can’t destroy the things. But a dinosaur bone? That’s awesome. And it says that your love is an ancient and special thing that can only be destroyed by a worldwide calamity that wipes out an entire species. Now that’s love.

    These handmade rings come from Jewelry by Johan, who gets the materials for the rings from the Morrison Formation in Utah. Sadly, they’re not actual bone fragments, but the colorful quartz minerals formed in the fossils where dinosaur bones once lay. Still, these fossils date all the way back from the Jurassic Era over 65 million years ago. They also make some rings with meteorite fragments as well.

    Prices for the dinosaur bone rings range from $450(USD) to $1800(USD).

    Nothing says love like wearing the bones of dead giants, or so I once heard a Klingon say.

    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.

    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.
