The popular ART OF series of movie tie-in books now includes Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy. This book features exclusive concept artwork, behind-the-scenes photographs, production stills, and in-depth interviews with the cast and crew.
This book is a deluxe keepsake that will give you an insider’s look into the making of the blockbuster film. It is 336 pages of awesome. I plan to get lost for several hours in this book.
Light a candle for the Doctor and celebrate his adventures as he travels through time and space. This TARDIS candle may not be bigger on the inside, but it provide you with some mood lighting and maybe remind you to catch up with the Doctor’s adventures.
It will burn as bright as the Timelord himself and look awesome in your home.
Fans of James Cameron’s Avatar may not have as many toys and collectibles available to them as Star Wars fans do, but they do have some cool collectibles. Like these Avatar Neytiri And Jake Tonner Dolls, which are superbly detailed. They are a limited edition of just 150 pieces!
Each is 22 inches tall and they come with character appropriate accessories and a display stand.
If you already own the R2-D2 purse, this C-3PO change purse is the perfect companion piece. There is no better place to keep your change than in a protocol droid head. Just keep it in your R2 purse and your change will always be at the ready.
This change purse also makes a great gift for the Star wars fan who has everything.
Remember when Marty McFly nearly created a paradox when he interfered with his parents’ meeting in 1955? He erased the existence of his brother Dave and his sister Linda and threatened his own existence. He knew this because he watched them and himself disappear from the photos. Now you can own a replica of the photo set from the movie and impress your friends.
Vikigreen makes all kinds of cool geeky pendants and rings. Everything from Harry Potter to Star Wars. I really like the designs. They have some really striking pieces. The seller has many to choose from so no matter what you are a fan of, they probably have you covered.
Below is a sampling of some of our favorites. Wear them proudly.
Fans of Chappie will enjoy this. Image Engine is the special effects company that worked on Neill Blomkamp’s Chappie. This is their VFX breakdown reel that shows how they transformed Sharlto Copley into Chappie himself. It isn’t as easy or straightforward as you might think.
Copley had to be taken out of each frame of the film that he was in. It’s a pain but, his being there allowed the rest of the cast to react to his movements, so it was totally worth it. I think it worked pretty well in this movie. You’ll want to watch it all the way through to get all of the cool details.
Do you love Firefly? How about trading cards? Well, I have some great news for you. Upper Deck is putting together a set of Firefly trading cards. Robert Jimenez is one of the artists that are involved in the project. Check out these stunning cards of Joss Whedon’s series as pulp novel covers. They are all kinds of shiny.
When Upper Deck was bringing on artists to draw up some Firefly cards, Jimenez used the opportunity to bring together two of his passions: Firefly and pulp art. I love these images. Upper Deck did too, so they asked for some propaganda-type posters for the cards. The results are pretty awesome. I would love to have them as art pieces. Jimenez will be offering some for sale in the future!

As much as we use our smartphones sometimes it’s good to put them down. And if you need a cool new smartphone stand, PhoneTastique offers many good options.
Below is just a sample of their cool Sci-Fi themed smartphone stands. I especially love the Enterprise and Darth Vader stands. These stands will look great on your desk.
Geek girls will need a restraining bolt to keep them from this Star Wars R2-D2 skater dress. This jersey knit frock is designed to look just like your favorite Astromech Droid. The detailing is perfect. People will look at your dress and say, “You R2 cute!”
I’ve seen many R2 shirts and dresses, but this one seems absolutely perfect. I’ll have to get one for my wife. Too bad it won’t play a holographic message.
