Bionic boots enter PVC fashion as geek meets glam

March 22, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Etsy store Bionic Concepts has a bold photo shoot on display in order to sell a $500 pair of boots. Here’s the first disclaimer; the boots aren’t included. I assume we’re talking about the metal struts; the faux hydraulic armour made from lightweight aluminum and ABS plastic. The boots are made to order, which takes […]

Mass Effect cosplay all the rage

March 22, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Geek Native has been lucky enough to share a whole range of Mass Effect cosplay. The discoveries keep on coming. The picture below, from LJinto, was taken last year and shows Samara, Liara, Miranda and Tai from Mass Effect. I imagine by this time next year we’ll have a few Edi cosplayers too. Via Cosplay […]

The Wolverine poster causing an international upset – but is it real?

March 22, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

There’s a poster kicking around that maybe to advertise The Wolverine movie. 20th Century Fox is yet to claim it. ScreenRant spotted it in an Instagram photo (now deleted) of James Mangold‘s office. Mangold is set to be helming the movie. Messing up a national flag is fairly big business in the States. The 2ch community; […]

Battlestar Galactica: Blood and Chrome trailer

March 22, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Someone’s taken the time to, ahem, take the Blood and Chrome trailer and share it on YouTube. Watch it before it’s YouTube yanked. In Blood and Chrome we follow a pilot with the call sign “Husher”. That’s right – a young William Adama fighting in the first Cylon war. I have to say – based […]

Stop motion LEGO duel

March 22, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

What would you do if you had a pile of LEGO, some stop motion gear and some talent? I think it would be too hard to resist making a stop motion LEGO battle to the death. That’s not with this video is about though. This is the official music video for the Afterlife remix by […]

The strange chitter of Nyarlaothtop – Naiyoru! Nyaruko-san trailer

March 21, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

It’s always a challenge working out which anime trailers to share on Geek Native. I assume that most readers, like this blogger, don’t speak Japanese. It’s also tempting to post this video without explanation. I think the explanation is what makes the video surreal and funny though! In the anime Naiyoru! Nyaruko-san the thing that […]

Ride the Xenomorph

March 19, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Built from scrap in a Bangkok garage by Roongrojna Sangwongprisarn, the alien motorcycle, actually goes. Sangwongprisarn has four shops, called Ko Art Shop, from which he sells his fantatic creation. If you’re rich enough he also exports them around the world. If you’re brave enough you could actually ride this thing. Via Design You Trust.
