Goodnight Forest Moon

Being the father of two small girls, I've read Margaret Wise Brown's "Goodnight Moon" many a time, so when I saw that someone had made a Star Wars version of the book, I was ecstatic! Artist Noah Dziobecki has created "Goodnight Forest Moon" and released it as a free pdf, which includes the instructions on how to assemble the book.

Dziobecki has captured all the charm of Clement Hurd's illustrations in his own version. Click this link to download it now!

Revenge of the Cute - Star Wars Amigurumi

I just sent my mother an email asking her if she knows how to crochet (which I think she does). I love hitting dear old mom up for favors when it comes to stuff for her grandkids. And I'm quite certain that my children need a full set of these amazing Star Wars Amigurumi characters by lucyravenscar that recently showed up at Etsy.

Alright mom... ready, set... crochet 'til your fingers fall off!

Swagalicious: Japanese Import Edition

Once and a while I come across something I know I really don't need, but I just can't keep from wanting. Well, this DIY AT-AT cable organizing device and storage system kit certainly falls into this category. The item is available on the Japanese site GeekCook.net.

I have no idea how much it sells for or if the place will even ship it to the U.S., but oh man... I'd love to have one of these bad boys stalking the terrain around my desk in my office!

30,000 Piece Lego Droid Control Ship!

I've assembled some Legos in my day... but certainly nothing of this magnitude. After being inspired by an illustration in a Star Wars Cross Section book, it took Paul Yperman two years to create this massive Droid Control ship. Boy, was his time well spent. This thing is just pure awesomeness and ranks among the most amazing Star Wars vehicles ever assmebled with Legos!

If you look real closely you can almost see a young Anakin Skywalker flying his "borrowed" Naboo Starfighter into the docking bay!

Ke$ha "Tik Tok" Star Wars Spoof Hits the Interwebs

I didn't know whether to laugh, cry or hurl when I watched this.... so I had to post it. It certainly left an impression on me! The part that I find the most ironic is that Chewbacca is clearly balding.
