TARS cosplay is Interstellar
I think TARS may well have been my favourite bit in Interstellar. I’m not saying that to knock the film, I rather liked it… but TARS was a scene stealer! This cosplay took some 3 months to build and was shown at Seattle’s Emerald City Comic Con this year. It won the “One to Watch” […]

Project J-Deite: The real life Transformer
I wasn’t sure what to expect when I started to watch this Transformer video unfold. An animation? A model? I should have paid more attention. It’s clear that this is scale replica of a real life Transformer. By “real life” we mean a robot capable of transforming, actions and travel. It’s surprisingly agile. Unlike cartoon […]
