We’ve seen some great Star Wars mash-ups, but these Mass Effect versions created by deviantArtist Zarnala look good enough to appear on the big screen. In fact, I’m sure I’m not the only one that would pay good money to see a Sith Asari take on some Jedi. They wouldn’t stand a chance.

You never know when you’ll need to scare the crap out of someone, so get a life-sized animated version of the Teddy Bear Girl from The Walking Dead! She’s over 4 feet tall and her moves are activated by sound. She floats across the floor like a zombie, and she makes zombie sounds (of course). You could put her out for Halloween or bring her out as a surprise when you have house guests who have overstayed their welcome. Yes, I’m evil.

You can build anything with Lego bricks, even aliens. Carlos Valero made a much less gooey version of the facehugger from Alien, and it’s fabulous. It’s a 1:1 scale replica and only took around 500 bricks. I hope it’s all glued together safely so he can throw it at other people’s faces.

Neil deGrasse Tyson speaks eloquently on a huge number of subjects but, more often than not, the subject is geeky. A few years ago he talked about the astrophysics of Star Trek and commented that, “They’ve made admirable attempts to do the correct things with physics.” He points out you can’t go into it nitpicking every aspect but instead should look at how they’ve done in their attempt. He’s a fair guy. It only makes sense that he’d like Star Trek more than Star Wars in that regard.
As much as I love Star Wars, it doesn’t approach science and technology in the same way as Trek. In fact, it barely addresses it. He recently told Business Insider the following:
“I’m old-school with the big traditional TV and movie series, so I’m old-school Star Trek. I’m partial to the old crew, Captain Kirk.”
“I never got into Star Wars,” Tyson tells us. “Maybe because they made no attempt to portray real physics. At all.”

Some guys give jewelry, others give flowers, but one guy gave his wife some amazing Gears of War art to commemorate their first wedding anniversary. Redditor Xioo worked with artist Edward J. Chua to modify one of his existing pieces to include himself, his wife, and their two dogs. I don’t know if Xioo and his wife are any good in a fight, but those dogs look absolutely vicious. No wonder they’re leading the charge.
