I don’t care how they smell on the outside, they look fantastic as rugs. This tauntaun skin rug was designed by Malaki Keller as a 1:1 scale version of a taun taun for Autumn Massey who came up with the whole idea. It looks incredibly soft and the details on the head, right down to the horns and eyes, are gorgeous.

I love the internet. Why? Because the internet allows me to see things like this 80′s style Jon Snow training montage.
I have only two things I’d change.
1) Leave out the non-GoT footage because there’s enough of that to make this work.
2) Use You’re The Best by Joe Esposito and do homage to The Karate Kid.
Or Eye of The Tiger.
Get on it Internet!
Check it out after break.
Clark Gregg got to unbox the Hot Toys Agent Coulson Action Figure we posted about previously and he looks so happy.
It really is so cool when you see the people you like in movies act so totally like us regular nerds.
You can pre-order him now over at Sideshow.

Benedict Cumberbatch has never looked so stinking cute. He’s in his Sherlock outfit, but he’s been turned into a Cabbage Patch doll. It’s everything I can do not to squeeze those adorable little cheeks.

There’s little to no chance that most of us will build something as complex as the Mars Curiosity Rover, but we will all soon be able to build a Lego version. It was designed by NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory mechanical engineer Stephen Pakbaz who submitted it as a Lego Cuusoo project last Fall. His project was selected for production from among only three projects that received the necessary 10,000 votes needed in order to be considered.
The product is still in development so no pricing or availability have been announced, but as long as it’s less than the real thing, I’m in!
See video of the announcement after the break…

I was a huge Superman fan growing up. In fact, I wouldn’t go to school willingly unless I had my Superman shirt on. If they had figures like this one back in the day, I would have flipped out.
Even now, when it arrived in the mail I kinda flipped out.
This massive Man of Steel action figure from Jakks Pacific clocks in at a whopping 31-inches tall with 7-points of articulation.
I loved it… but my dog wasn’t so sure. Check out more photos after the break.
There’s a rumor going around that a big expansion is in the works over at Walt Disney World’s Hollywood Studios in Orlando, Florida and, as part of that expansion, we may see an East Coast version of Cars Land and (be still my heart) the first ever Star Wars Land.

Yep. Multiple sources have told me the long-awaited dream of theme park geeks everywhere is actually happening. Disney’s moving ahead with both Cars Land and Star Wars Land at the Disney’s Hollywood Studios in Walt Disney World.
TheForce.net writes:
I spoke to a Disney Cast Member who not only confirmed Niles’ report, but added some new information. This Cast Member heard directly from Disney supervisors that Disney is discussing building a Cantina-themed restaurant in the new Hollywood Studios Star Wars area.
Seems to me, that’s a lot of chatter over at Disney from multiple sources that all points to loads of fun for Star Wars and Cars fans. Of course, it was a given that Disney would eventually make this move after acquiring the rights to Star Wars earlier this year—but now we might know the where and when.
I’m definitely going to be keeping an eye out for more news on this and I’m gonna have to start saving my pennies now so I can head to Florida when it’s time to get my Star Wars geekdom on.

Redditor Sartro thought it would be fun to test his dad on the names of the Game Of Thrones characters and he was right.
It’s a load of fun. The answers are kind of hilarious.
My faves? Ser Jorah Mormont as Lord Buccaneer and Peter Baelish as Lord Weasel.
