No commentsMini-Mario: Video Game Character Custom LEGO Minifigs
LEGO has made official film-branded minifigs, such as Star Wars and even Toy Story, but they have yet to delve into the world of video gaming, which is actually sort of a mystery. So what are we geeks forced to resort to? Buying custom video game minifigs created by other geeks.

Forget Blow Up Dolls: The CAT5 Cable Girl Sculpture

Thanko Notebook Tripod Stand – Turns a camera tripod into a desk
I like this Thanko Notebook Tripod Stand, it gets your stupid leg-burning laptop off your lap and onto an ergonomic and adjustable surface. Sure it’s just an aluminium plate with a 1/4″ tripod thread and air vents, but it’s […]
