Hasta La Gadget!

There are a lot of adults that collect action figures from various sci-fi movies and TV shows. One of the most beloved science fiction series to hit TV, and not last long, was Firefly. Fox killed the show after only a handful of episodes leaving a lot of geeks angry to this day.

Firefly has been off the air nearly a decade now, but fans are still hardcore about the show. If you’re one of them, news has surfaced that Funko will be making a line of action figures from the show.

They plan on making big head Firefly Pop! figures, retro style Re-Action figures as well as their more detailed, fully-articulated Legacy series. The company will also to be making Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and Arrested Development action figures too.

The Firefly Pop! and Re-Action figures are expected in Spring 2014, while the Legacy figures should hit in late 2014.

There are a lot of people one doesn’t expect to coming out of the TARDIS. Chuck Norris, President Lincoln and Nathan Drake to name just a few. Oh and a Creeper. I never expected to see a Creeper in the TARDIS. Get him out before he explodes!

This fun Minecraft and Doctor Who mash-up birthday cake was created by Curiaussiety Custom Cakes of Australia. Look at that Creeper just creeping. He is probably having a quick look outside to make sure the Doctor isn’t coming back, so it can safely blow up the console room.

Hey maybe that Creeper is the Doctor’s new companion. That would be pretty cool.

If you have ever watched Game of Thrones on HBO, you’re probably familiar with Daenerys Targaryen,  Mother of Dragons, the Khaleesi herself, played by Emilia Clarke. Word is that she will next be playing a pivotal roll in one of the coolest sci-fi movie franchises ever, Terminator.

Clarke will reportedly be playing Sarah Connor. The choice of Clarke for the part makes sense considering that Terminator: Genesis is being directed by Alan Taylor, who is heavily involved with Game of Thrones. According to IMDB, the role of John Connor will be played by Jason Clarke (Brotherhood, Zero Dark Thirty) with Arnold returning to the franchise.

This is particularly interesting to me since Lena Headey played Sarah Connor on the short lived, underrated Fox series Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, since Headey plays Cersei Lannister in Game of Thrones. I wonder if Arnold will play the Terminator in the new film, he’s a bit old and not as ripped as he was in the 80′s. Why not keep it in the Game of Thrones Family and get Jason Momoa, who played Khal Drogo to be the Terminator?

It’s winter and cold in most parts of the country. If your dog is like the one that lives in my house, they may not like to take care of their business outside when it’s too cold out. My daughter’s little Chihuahua, Buttercup, won’t poop outside if something cold touches her. Once that chill hits her, you can bet on picking up a little gift inside the house later.

I’ve decided she needs a jacket of some sort to keep her warm so maybe she will poop outside. ThinkGeek has the perfect jacket for any dog.

It’s the Star Trek Spock Dog Hoodie. The body of the hoodie appears made from sweatshirt material and it has the same blue design Spock wore.

The hood of the hat has pointy ears and black hair just like Spock. Sizes range from Small up to 2X for jumbo dogs with a chest up to 39 inches. Buying your dog a hoodie is enough, but buying your dog a Star Trek Spock hoodie puts you on a whole ‘nuther level.

So do the logical thing and transport yourself over to ThinkGeek, where you can get the Spock Dog Hoodie for $39.99(USD) While you’re shopping, be sure to grab the Star Trek communicator poop bag dispenser, and a Star Trek transporter dog bed.

It all started when David Prouty’s daughter challenged him to make something out of recycled boxes for the Doctor Who 50th anniversary. Not one to pass on a challenge, David set out to create something unique. Something awesome. A TARDIS jukebox.

This is a 1/3 scale TARDIS that literally rocks. It has disco lights, sound activated LED’s, a smoke machine and an internal Bluetooth speaker. It is powered by a wireless remote and he can even connect his iPod or iPhone to it and he has an instant jukebox.

It was made out of old U-Haul, FedEx, and pizza boxes. Hell, the old Doctor Who series could have used David’s construction skills. This guy knows how to make something on a budget and make it look amazing.

It sure looks great for something made of pizza boxes. Great work, David.
