Antique Darth Vader: An Elegant Sith Lord For A More Civilized Age

Artist Alain Bellino created this awesome Darth Vader helmet assemblage using antique bronze ornaments and silverware. This is an elegant Darth Vader for a more civilized age. It must have taken a lot of time and effort to complete and the finished piece makes it completely worth it.

This is one piece that looks like it belongs in a museum. Check out how the light hits this thing. It is so shiny and Sithy. I would love to have this work of art in my home.

Star Trek x RockLove Sterling Dock Ring

Normally saucer separation means trouble, but in this case it means that you can share this ring with someone you love. This awesome ring for two features the U.S.S. Enterprise cast in solid artisan sterling silver. The saucer section can detach so you can wear one half and your significant other can wear the other half. This cool ring is handmade in New York City by RockLove. So now you just have to decide which of you gets which half. This ring is too awesome.

Photos of Wonder Woman From George Miller’s Justice League Movie

As you may already know, Mad Max director George Miller was set to direct a Justice League movie for Warner Bros. several years ago. The project ended up being canceled, but from some of the stories I’ve heard, this could have been an amazing movie. It was called Justice League: Mortal. The cast included Armie Hammer as Batman, D.J. Cotrona as Superman, Megan Gale as Wonder Woman, Adam Brody as Flash, Common as Green Lantern, Santiago Cabrera as Aquaman, Hugh Keays-Byrne as Martian Manhunter, and Jay Baruchel as Maxwell Lord.

Obviously we never got to see anything from this movie since it was over soon after it began, but now we have some photos from the development process of the film. They clue us in on what Miller’s version of Wonder Woman was going to look like. These photos show Megan Gale in costume, and I have to say she has a wonderful vintage classic look. I love that the red looks very bronze-like. It goes great with that blue skirt.

Captain Phasma Sixth Scale Figure By Hot Toys

The release date of Star Wars: The Force Awakens draws ever closer and now the Captain Phasma Sixth Scale Figure By Hot Toys is available for Pre-order. She is in her distinctive metallic armor, looking dangerous and oh so shiny. She stands approximately 13″ tall and features the character’s signature chrome colored armor and helmet with specially applied multiple layers of metallic paint on the armor along with weathering effects.

There is also a finely tailored cape, highly detailed blaster rifle, and a hexagonal figure stand with the First Order’s emblem! This one will definitely stand out in your collection.

Postcards From Space

No one ever sends me postcards from space, but at least I now feel like they did, thanks to an art show called Postcards from Space, which is being hosted by IAm8Bit in Los Angeles. The exhibit has postcards from fictional, intergalactic destinations. Places that we have all wanted to visit. There are some really great pieces below. The Cybertron one really stands out. It’s nice to see that postcards are still being used in the universe.

Some of the artists that contributed include Marco D’ Alfonso, Nan Lawson, Orioto, Marko Manev, Erich Meyr, Austin James, Concalo Viana, Johnny Yanok, Andrew Kolb, and Cory Schmitz. There are many more. All of them did an outstanding job.

Star Wars Characters As Expensive Sports Cars

With Star Wars: The Force Awakens almost here, the folks at Car Wow have been passing the time by designing some cool new Star Wars themed cars. They have reimagined some popular characters as flashy sports cars.

I love them all, with one exception. Can you guess which one I think should be left in a junk yard? I’ll give you a hint. “Mes’a get good gas mileage Ani. Choose me.”

Buck Rogers in the 25th Century Starfighter Limited Edition 1:24 Scale Statue

Buck Rogers in the 25th Century was a really bad show. Let’s be honest. The 80s were a strange time and a lot of weird stuff happened. Now that doesn’t mean that I don’t have love for this show. It gave us a lot of cool and fun stuff like Twiki, Hawk, and some cool starships. So, bad as it is, it still holds a special place in my heart. That’s why I am drooling over this Buck Rogers in the 25th Century Starfighter Limited Edition 1:24 Scale Statue.

It is cast from the original studio scale patterns and comes fully wired to light the engines and the interior console. It really is a beautiful ship. Buck Rogers is in the cockpit! This stunning replica statue measures 22-inches long x 13-inches wide x 9-inches tall when on the base, and is limited to only 200 pieces worldwide!

This Full-Sized X-Wing Is Parked At A Singapore Airport

How would you like to sit in an X-wing cockpit? Well, if you find yourself in Singapore over the next few weeks, you can stop by Changi Airport, where there is a full sized X-Wing at terminal 3. You can even sit in it and get a picture.

This opportunity is on a first-come first-served basis. 80 tickets are given out for each time slot. That would be a very cool opportunity to actually sit in an X-Wing cockpit. There’s also a TIE-Fighter in Terminal 2. I’m booking a flight to Singapore.

Star Trek 365: The Next Generation Book

With the launch of Star Trek: The Next Generation, Star Trek was finally back on television. This version of Star Trek was an instant hit, and it would inspire four films and three spin-off television series along the way. Star Trek: The Next Generation 365 provides an overview of the entire series, including an authorized guide to all 178 episodes.

This book is full of rarely seen photos and illustrations. It also has tons of information not commonly known and many stories that were previously untold.It is the perfect companion book to Star Trek 365: The Original Series Book.

Guardians of the Galaxy Cosplay: Nebula & Gamora

This beautiful pair is AmberSkies Cosplay and Sara Moni Cosplay doing an amazing shoot as the daughters of Thanos, Nebula and Gamora from Guardians of the Galaxy. AmberSkies stitched all of Nebula’s clothing pieces together herself! She also created all of the mechanical pieces of Nebula’s bionic arm, face, and head. It is no wonder that she came in first place in the Women’s category for the official Marvel cosplay contest at San Diego Comicon 2015. That is some real talent.

Gamora is looking pretty awesome too. They did a fantastic job. Super professional. The photos speak for themselves. The photographers here are: Posing with London’s Lens, Craig’s Cosplay Corral, Alvin Johnson Photography & David Ngo. All did great work. I mean play. As always I am equally blown away by both the photography and the cosplay.
