Impressive reconstruction of Star Wars at Madame Tussauds
I’ve never yet been to a Madame Tussauds. There’s not one locally but I think the real challenge is getting over the idea of queuing for so long just to see some waxworks. It doesn’t seem worth it. That’s until a video like this comes along and shows me how very real the wax models […]

Rule 63 cosplay for Star Wars Day – it’s genderbent Greedo
This clever Greedo cosplay seems like a perfect way to kick off Geek Native’s celebration of Star Wars Day. Designed, made and modelled by Corinne Alexandra this genderbent bounty hunter was designed to upgrade and replace a sexy Chewbacca cosplay that had become widely copied. Alexandra certainly picked a good subject; I don’t think I’ve […]
Stormtrooper inspired leggings
Tomorrow is Star Wars Day. I wonder if we’ll see anyone modelling Poprageous’ “robotic leggings” out and about. I think they look rather Stormtrooper in style. Nothing wrong with that, Star Wars fashion will be hot for years to come thanks to the new set of movies. What do you think? Geek chic or another […]
