When someone takes a hobby to the next level the outcome of their for lack of a better word “obsession” can be weird and freaky to creative and amazing. Below we have one of those creative examples. This coffee tables shaped in the likeness of a Playstation controller was desgined by Mark M of Australia. Taking about 20 weeks to complete, the table is constructed of MDF, plywood and Veneer on Veneer. I wonder if it’s got a built in rumbl pack tho?
Although Star Wars Celebration has come and gone, the past month has been filled with a plethora of SW related merchandise. So much so that I’ve had to restrict the content on here so as not to appear as strictly a Star Wars themed product blog. One item that is worth mentioning are these bookends. Fashioned in the iconic SW logo, you can use them as bookends or to proudly display your dvd collection. $55 and available at Big Bad Toy store.
I doubt you’d want to fight for the top bunk in this scenario. Concept design shown off at the International Furniture Fair in Milan. Via Born Rich.
Aside from the big “Luke I am your father” revelation in Empire Strikes Back, one of the dopest parts of the movie was Han being “frozen” in carbonite. Now this memorable moment can be yours to have with you in some of your most intimate moments. From Luxury Lane Soap, this extremely well crafted soap bar is sure not to be used for what it was intended. Reproducing the fantastic block of carbonite containing Han, each bar of soap measuring 4.25 x 2.25 is made one at a time from pure olive oil, shea butter, aloe vera, skin safe matte and metallic pigments and is also 100% fragrance free. At $6.50 a bar it’s quite a steal, but fanboys be patient. Due to demand the average wait is 4 weeks so may the force be with you during ordering.
I just love this picture. Not sure who the photographer is – would love to give them photo credit on this creative shot. If anyone has a clue who shot this please let me know so I can give credit.
Thank you!

Rotisserie Chicken has always been a staple in my life growing up – I remember when my dad came home with this huge chicken roaster contraption called the Showtime – I remember it cause I had to clean it…worst experience ever. But hopefully this Cuisinart Vertical Rotisserie oven can revive my memories but in a good way. I know from experience that cooking chicken vertical is the way to go especially beer can style so I know that this oven will be a big hit for those amateur chefs that want a good tasting chicken with half the effort.
