Sillof’s Serial Wars does retro Star Wars

August 8, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Geek Native has pointed the spotlight on Sillof’s Star Wars modded models before. It’s easy to do it again with his new line of “Serial Wars”. Conjure up memories of the golden oldie serials like Flash Gordon and Buck Rogers and that’s what we mean by “serial”. The result is a line of Star Wars […]

Cute baby Wampa

August 8, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This rather cute baby snow wampa was created by Scrumptious Delight (Flickr link) for an art show called “Stitch Wars Strikes Back” which will run in Lauderhill, FL, from August 12th to Sep 25th. Scrumptious Delight has an Etsy stall and perhaps if there’s enough demand we’ll have wonderfully handcrafted and cute baby wampas zooming […]

RPG powerhouse Fantasy Flight Games has today announced that they’ve secured the license for Star Wars. The deal with Lucasfilm gives them the worldwide rights for card games, miniature games and RPGs for the entire Star Wars universe. There’s no specific mention of the internet. Whereas it’s not expected that Fantasy Flight will be making […]

Kinect Star Wars – Cool? Cheese? Crepe?

July 28, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I suspect this video will divide people. It shows the new Star Wars game for the Xbox 360. It’s a game that you can play with your hands, without a controller and so it means you can do the lightsaber swings yourself or control an X-Wing. I suspect the Star Wars franchise will be a […]

Pictures: There is a real Tatooine

July 28, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

In Tunisia there is a small city called Tataouine – although you can spell it in many ways. It sports fortified granaries used by the local Berbers and looks like something from a fantastic film set. As it happens George Lucas used the area of Ksar Oueled Soltane for The Phantom Menance. It’s certainly not […]

Rocking teaser clip for Star Wars: The Old Republic

July 26, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

EA have released a new advert for Star Wars: The Old Republic. It’s a set of clips, 30 seconds of The Old Republic goodness, that seem to fly by at light speed. There’s no doubting the success of The Old Republic and Knights franchise. Just taking a gander at Play.com’s matches for Old Republic reveal […]

8 bit Star Wars

July 18, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Here’s a mash up that we should have seen coming. Take one dose of Star Wars. Take one dose of 8-bit era music. Mash. There result is Star Wars as it might have sounded if it was a Nintendo game. Hats off to Proof of Work who kept this up for more than 6 minutes. […]

The Dark Side – Come to the Dark Side, we have dubstep

July 8, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Something, something, Dark Side – one of the best lines from Family Guy ever. What else could you do with the dreaded words “Dark Side”? What about creating a rather funky dubstep, combining it with a mashup of clips, pinning it up at YouTube and pointing a whole bunch of geeks at it. Yeah. That […]

Jessica Rabbit as Slave Leia x 2

July 7, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

For some mystery the picture of Heidi Klum dressed as Jessica Rabbit is one of the most popular photos on this blog. Slave Leia posts are uber popular too – except this one. I wonder how well this pair of mashups will do; Jessica Rabbit as Slave Leia. Any bets? From The Daily Dingo. From […]
