Star Wars Dance Off

Star Wars Dance Off
I just received this off the tip line and all I can say is, Darth Vader would clean house on Dancing with the stars. The video below is priceless but on the long side, so save yourself some time and fast forward to 3:11 and enjoy.

Top 10 Toys for Geeks who have Everything (Part One)

10 Geek Toys

This is part one, toys one through five, for geeks who have everything. I have scoured the reaches of the Internet and come up with ten absolutely awesome geek toys. To make this list, they had to be one of a kind or extremely rare, insanely expensive and at least a little bit geeky. Most of the stuff comes from the films and TV shows that made us what we are today. Most of this stuff is advertised around the web, but almost always ends up on eBay. They are in no particular order. A lot of the stuff in this guide came from ProfilesInHistory as they geared up toward an enormous set of auctions in their “Hollywood Auction 28″. If you catch the prices that they sold for, include them in a comment and we will add them to the post.

300: Spartan Shield

300: Spartan Shield
This is a screen used Spartan shield directly from the set of 300 in Montreal. It is the only one of its kind on the market to my knowledge. It was apparently used earlier on in the film and appears to be weathered and battle damaged. It is constructed from fiberglass.

Price: $10,000 from StarWarsProps

Terminator 2: Judgment Day – Hunter Killer Tank

Terminator 2: Tank

This bad boy meets all of our requirements. It is believed to be a one of a kind. It was most likely used as a maquette before two full-sized models were built. It is small, just 10 inches tall x 13 inches wide and 15 inches long. It comes, of course, with a letter of authenticity. Three of the wheels are detached and require some repair. This fully detailed miniature does not come cheap.
Price: $5,000 – $7,000 from ProfilesInHistory (Item #868)

4-In-1 Supersonic Portable Boom Box

Supersonic Portable Boom Box

It features a headphone and external antenna jacks, built-in handle, and LED display.

The Supersonic Portable Boom Box can be considered a very high tech gadget just by looking at the number of features it has – DVD Player, AM and FM radio, CD Player, and last but not least it can also work as a TV thanks to the 5-inch screen. Since these kind of gadgets are suppose to be portable (read low-weight) the 10 pounds is certainly a good detail.

Think of how the boom boxes used to look and work in the past, only featuring cassette and radio functions. Take a look at the evolution and what they become – pretty good, right?

Price: $180
