LEGO Leia vs Jabba The Hutt Should Be a Real LEGO Set

Leia vs Jabba
One of the greatest scenes in sci-fi history has been captured perfectly in LEGO. That is the moment in Return of the Jedi when Princess Leia chokes Jabba the Hutt and kills him dead. It is Leia vs Jabba. This cool creation is the work of artist Iain “Ochre Jelly” Heath and it is stunning. It really captures the moment perfectly, with Leia pulling the chains and Jabba’s tongue coming out of his nasty slimy mouth. The quality here is good enough for an official LEGO kit. If only we could buy it.

Pop Culture Postage – These Are The Postage Stamps We Want

Pop Culture Postage - These Are The Postage Stamps We Want
The USPS has been in financial trouble for a long time now, but if they actually made stamps that looked like this, they would make a fortune selling them to nerds like me and you. These images by Clark Orr are posters, postcards and also the subject of a new art exhibit at Gallery 1988 in Los Angeles called Pop Culture Postage. Orr turned some of the most iconic films, TV and comics of all-time into amazing looking, though sadly not real stamps. See the rest here.

Purr-Fect Catwoman Fan Art by Glen Brogan

Purr-Fect Catwoman Fan Art by Glen Brogan
I’m loving the retro style of this Catwoman fan art from artist Glen Brogan. It’s slick, it’s retro, it’s fun. I love how he nailed the look of this feline thief. The second image is the best, where Catwoman is buying some Mr. Freeze themed ice cream from the Penguin. It even has a Joker trash can and some great images of other ice cream flavors which look very familiar.
