LEGO Minifig Tattoos

I don’t know about you, but I’m not manly enough to get a tattoo. However, if I ever man up and get one, it would probably be something awesome like the tattoos below. These excellent tattoos of LEGO Minifigs were made ​​by Polish artist Max Pniewski from Bristol, England.

The artist obviously loves to ink LEGO Minifigs and he does an excellent job. Everything from Breaking Bad to Star Wars and superheroes. I love the quality of his work. Maybe it’s time I just walk in and get a tattoo. Nah. I’ll just admire these.

Doctor Who Female Sixth Doctor Costume

If you want to cosplay as the 6th Doctor as a female, or just dress up as him as a her this Halloween, I have the perfect costume for you. This beautifully made 6th Doctor Costume has been perfectly created for her rather than him. It comes from Etsy seller Frockasaurus. I think any lady is going to look wonderful in this costume.

It’s a pretty stunning recreation when you think about how detailed Colin Bakers patchwork coat was. Right down to the cat brooch.

Yearbook Pictures Of Fictional Characters

Cracked held a photoshop contest where readers were asked to come up with Yearbook photos for fictional characters. Below is a sampling of winners and the runners-up. It’s a fun assortment that includes Back To The Future, Star Trek, Ghostbusters, Predator and many more.

The Starfleet Academy Hall of Fame has to be my favorite. Marty McFly as Calvin Klein ranks pretty high too. Thanks to all of the talented photoshoppers who brought these to life.

This Doctor Who Fan Video Shows The TARDIS Dematerializing In A New Way

For all of it’s history, the TARDIS has de-materialized in the same way. It slowly fades in and out of existence in one place and appears somewhere else. This VFX video from John Smith shows it materializing in a new and exciting way.

In fact, I’m surprised that the showrunners haven’t tried this on the show yet. Then again, it is a bit showy to use every time the TARDIS goes somewhere. It is fun to see though. I could watch this all day long. The creator did an awesome job.

Anovos Enterprise Uniform Replicas

Anovos has announced a new line of Star Trek: Enterprise uniform replicas. As usual, the quality looks outstanding whether you fancy yourself an Archer or a Tucker. This replica jumpsuit uniform should arrive next September and it is based on the screen-used jumpsuits, with no detail overlooked. It features details like several bespoke zips, the department pipping which is available in all three colors, and an Enterprise NX-01 mission patch. The color is the bluer shade seen in the last two seasons, not the lighter color from season one.

If your pre-order gets in first, you’ll get a reduced price, so depending on how fast you order, you’ll get prices ranging from the already sold-out first tier, at $375, up to the final price of $500. Sold separately, you can also get a set of Enterprise rank pips to complete the uniform. These uniforms look awesome.

Back To The Future II DeLorean iPhone 6 Case

This Back to the Future II DeLorean phone case is a must for serious Back To The Future fans and it will make answering your phone a joy. This awesome case comes from Bandai and nearly disguises your entire phone to make it look like a DeLorean toy.

It goes beyond just covering your phone though. The headlights and other electrical elements of the DeLorean light up, and it even has a spot that slides open for access to your camera. The headlights will also blink when you get a call. In short, best phone case ever! You can pre-order it from Japan for ¥5940 (about $50) and if you do it will ship this June. I know what my next purchase is.

Sucker Punch Cosplay: Babydoll

I’m a sucker for Sucker Punch. A lot of people give the film a bad rap, but for my money you will rarely see something so visually stunning and original. So there is no doubt that I am digging this Sucker punch cosplay of Babydoll. This is Mimi Reaves looking adorable and deadly as Babydoll.

I don’t care if you loved the movie or hated it, you have to admit she looks perfect in this cosplay. Awesome job Mimi!
