Every lightsaber from every film

August 6, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Okay; we’re not counting the animations here. That would be insane. Landstrider’s efforts are barely sane as it stands. It took him 6 hours to do this. I think it’s impressively fast. No idea how hard it is to use FCP for editing but he even went on to use After Effects for some colour […]

Handmade Bantha is fluffy and cute!

July 26, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I’m no good at making anything arts and crafts related. In fact, I’d probably manage to glue my eyes closed. The Star Wars site has a make-at-home bantha that’s just about cute enough to tempt me to try. The list of material is interesting. You need bantha action figures (for reference, of course!), you need […]

Become slave Leia in the kitchen – or Darth

July 23, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This is why it makes sense to keep an eye on the Star Wars shop. They will upload awesome products. The shop seems to be on a kitchen spree. First they had the Star Wars asteroid monster as an oven mitt. Now they take both Princess Leia and Darth Vader into the kitchen. Slave Leia […]

Star Wars’ Millennium Falcon car sun shade

July 21, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The niche retail site BigBadToyStore.com has a rather fetching car sun shade. Imagine you’re looking through the windscreen of the Millennium Flacon. Okay; imagine you could get into space – you have a spacesuit – and peer inside. Yeah. Now you’re there. Star Wars car sun shades are simply awesome. If only I had a […]

The Birth of a Jedi

July 20, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The Birth of a Jedi is an oil on canvas painting, 10ft by 7ft, by Robert Burden. Burden describes his paintings as “epic portraits” of the action figures he had as a boy (looks like he’s still got a few too). The Birth of a Jedi showcases a number of iconic Star Wars toys. The […]

Stormtroopers invade NYC Subway car and carry off poor princess

July 14, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This is awful! This poor woman – who has nothing to do with planning any galactic rebellions – was just trying to take a simple subway trip in New York. What happens next? A bunch of stormtroopers get on board, call in their boss who suggests some transmissions had been sent … and, oh, it’s […]

Star Wars fashion: Tauntaun sleeping bag

July 11, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This isn’t new. In fact, the YouTube video went up in 2009. However, the tauntaun sleeping bag is so cool that all good geek bloggers need to remind readers that it’s there to be bought and there to be admired. I think the next thing they could look at would be a Death Star heating […]

TomTom get their hands on Master Yoda

July 8, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

We’ve already had a TomTom advert featuring Darth Vader and there’s a TomTom StarWars AR game. I think that’s pretty impressive stuff from TomTom. It might have been expected but it’s still good to see. Now we’ve Master Yoda taking his turn to record voice directions for TomTom. It goes very well. Master Yoda is […]

Behold! Pet Star Wars costumes

July 6, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

There’s a point in every dog’s life when he has to make an important call; light side of the force or the dark side? Yoda or Vader? I know! This is silly. You wouldn’t make your female puppy pick one of those two? We need a Princess Leia option. Got it! Once again Think Geek […]

Sillof’s Star Wars Toy Wars video

June 29, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

We’ve already covered Sillof’s impressive samurai figures on Geek Native and it’s been a popular post. Turns out that Sillof is able to combine his model making skills with some filming. Having tried to re-create the opening of Star Wars as a kid he’s stepped up to the mark to produce Toy Wars. It’s a […]
