Hasta La Gadget!

As far as I’m concerned, your dining room can never have too many tentacles. So if you have an extra few grand, this stained glass octopus chandelier can be yours. It even has detachable limbs that can hold candles and glow.

Imagine that Octopus looking down on you are you eat all of your meals, just glowing as if almost ready to attack you and drag you into it’s lair. It was made by Mason Parker of Mason’s Creations. Parker says that each of the tentacles would be about 30 inches-long if they were stretched out, and the lamp itself measures four feet across as it is.

The body and the tentacles can light up separately or all at once. So how menacing it is, is up to you. If you want it, it will cost you $18,000(USD). When you think about it, that’s just $2,250 per tentacle.

Relax mutants. That is not a real sentinel. You can go back to your schoolwork which Professor X is expecting in the morning. This awesome stained glass creation was made by Zero Wing Labs and it looks amazing.

You have to love those comic book colors as the Sun shines through and the details throughout. It belongs in a bad guy mutant place of worship alongside Juggernaut and Toad and other villains. Forgive me father, it has been 10 years since my last mutant capture… Dear God, the pain! I’ll do better, I swear.

This thing looks like it came straight from the pages X-Men. Awesome glass pages.

Fans of the Half-Life series will immediately recognize the Lambda logo in this image. But this isn’t just some patch on Gordon Freeman’s uniform, no. This is a handmade work of art – a geeky stained glass masterpiece if you ask me.

It was made by Evan Daniels of Martian Glasswork – the same man behind the Iron Man and Master Chief stained glass works featured here before. This window measures 25″ x 25″ and was cut from 34 individual pieces of glass. Each of the textures in the center of the symbol is unique, which really makes an already special piece just that much more special.

This one-of-a-kind piece is available over on Etsy for $500(USD). I’m surprised the guys at Valve haven’t snatched it up to put it alongside their life-size TF2 gun and their Portal turret replica.

While I never figured Darth Vader to be a man of faith, he definitely had enough of an ego to start his own church – but instead of religious figures and scenes on the stained glass, he’d much more likely go with something like this.

Yep, that’s a stormtrooper stained glass window, and Vader would line the walls of his church with an army of these, and perhaps images of the Death Star and the extermination of Alderaan.

This awesome stained glass window was made by artist Donna Terraza, and measures a substantial 22.5″ by 43.5″, so it’s almost life-sized. And before you go complaining about the helmet design, this thing is based on CC-1138 (aka Clone Marshal Commander Bacara) – who looked exactly like this.

Can you imagine if you had a glass front door, and installed this thing behind the glass? How cool would that be? I bet you’d never get unwanted solicitors coming to your front door again.

The window shown here has already been sold, but you can order one custom made over on Etsy for $710(USD). You hear that, Lord Vader?

Over the years, we’ve come across some unusually geeky stained glass items, and the latest to pop up over on Etsy is this handmade glass Starship Enterprise.

It was made by artist Patricia Meehand, using fused and stained glass pieces, and is a pretty solid replica of Captain Kirk’s ship. Though I have to say the “NOC-1701″ is bugging me. Isn’t that supposed to read “NCC-1701?” It’s still a cool piece if you’re not a stickler for accuracy. And we all know that Trekkies can let something like this slide. Or maybe not.

The glasswork is set into an 18-1/2″ x 23″ black picture frame, and would look great hanging in a window or with lights behind it. If you want it, have Scotty beam you over to Etsy, where you can grab it for $200 (USD).
