SpikeTV is advertising their presentation of Star Wars in the sexiest way possible. By featuring lightsaber glow-stick lights on a specially designed bus stop ad, of course. Sexiest way possible? I think so. The Dark Side is strong, my son. But using the power of The Force and your bus toll, you too can be a Jedi. Or at least ...

Much of the time, chandeliers are displayed as a room’s luxury centerpiece. Usually made of crystal or glass, I’m always so tempted to jump and swing from every chandelier I see, yet personal property laws tend to deter me from such actions. The Do Swing concept is a light fixture which is made for doing exactly that. Hang from the ...

Here’s a pretty cool remote control concept I came across. Touting itself as a no-touch Remote Control, the device designed by a Dutch Student for Bang & Olufsen features an unorthodox mechanism which entails sweeping your hand through a vacant space in the device in order to control your TV. To change the channel, just slide your finger through the ...

We’ve seen both artsy Darth Vader and seasonal Darth Vader, but never such an affordable mix of the two. If we had known this 7″ statue was available back during the holiday, we would have picked up one for sure, and might even pick one up for next December. Watch has Darth pleasantly craft his Death Star out of harmless ...

Thanks to an innovative design and well-thought form-factor, the Transformer concept phone by Shkinder Maxim can do much more than your average mobile device. The Transformer has the capability to act as a mobile phone, photo/video camera, multimedia player, projector, and is even working on support for holographic imaging and 3D scanning.

A standard tool of the trade for all responsible Boy Scout’s is a Swiss Army Knife. There is no tool more well-suited for a future man, since guns are a little too harsh for 9 year olds. Now we know girl’s are mostly more delicate than the rough-and-tumble nature or boys. That’s why Boy Scout’s don’t sell cookies. It would ...

A classic line from Star Trek is “Beam me up, Scotti.” Using only colored beads and thread, avid Star Trek fan Devorah Sperber recreated the beaming up look, starring the one and only Captain Kirk, with William Shatner goodness. Sperber also uses her talent with beading to recreate the Star Trek Holodeck, a great entrance for your Star Trek Entertainment ...
