Groom Builds Stargate For His Wedding

Groom Builds Stargate For His Wedding
Ian Milward knows how to throw a wedding. It took him several weeks to build this Stargate for his wedding. And you know what? It turned out awesome. This Stargate ring measures 12-feet in diameter and is nicely detailed with constellations and working LEDs. It is so good it looks like it belongs on the show.

It is very appropriate since the couple first met working at the same hardware store, and connected because of the show. They were inspired by the episode where Jack and Sam get married in front of a gate. So they made it happen.

Earlier this week, Hot Toys announced that they have been busy developing an 18-foot-long 1/6th scale Millennium Falcon. Because they have basically lost their minds. Now we have some actual images to share with you. This is our first real look as this huge creation, aside from that single teaser image we saw previously. It will be on display at the Ani-Com and Games convention in Hong Kong.

This toy is crazy. You would have to park it in your garage. I want one, but I would have to choose between this and the car.
