Stuff you didn't know you wanted till now

STUFF! Everyone likes stuff. Especially when it’s cool stuff. I’ve rounded up some of the coolest geek stuff I’ve found on that there interwebs for your enjoyment, so wallets at the ready, yeah?

(Most of it I have admittedly found on Think Geek. Think Geek, open a UK warehouse or something would you? I want to throw all my cash at you and I can’t because of stupid import taxes. UGH.)

Lego Minecraft:

Starting as we mean to go on, let’s investigate Minecraft merch. Yeah, there’s lots of cool stuff, like the foam swords and pickaxes and the ‘diamond’ necklace (which I now actually own), but now there’s Minecraft Lego, complete with its own little Steve and even a Creeper!

You could build your own little land, then playact as Steve building his own village and periodically running away screaming when the creeper comes to mess up everyone’s day. Or is that just how I play it?

Portal 2 long fall socks:

I have this feeling I’ve covered these before, but I’m waaaay too lazy to check. Either way, don’t you want these? Obviously you’d never be able to do long falls for real (not without your shin bones shooting up through your ribcage, anyway) but you’d LOOK cool, and that’s what’s important. Fact.

Lightsaber:

Surely a must have for any Star Wars fan. They light up and turn off just like to lightsabers in the movies, and even make the hum noise when you swish it about while threatening the cat. Even better, they make the clashing noise when you hit something with it. I know this first hand as I bought Matt one a few years ago, and I was rewarded by being smashed in the head with it repeatedly. Thanks, dear.

Mockingjay pin:

As much as the love triangle plot of the Hunger Games series drives me crazy, I have to admit I love everything else about the books. There’s some cool movie merch out there, including recreations of the costumes and even a Hunger Games cookbook, but I like the pin the best. Buy it, stick it on your jacket and pretend to be a rebel. Good times.

Firefly posters:

In lieu of a real life browncoat (MAKE IT HAPPEN, SERIOUSLY), I’m going with these posters. They’d look so pretty in my house, if only I had wall space for them...
I have to ask though, why is there a tourism poster for Serenity Valley? Do people go there to imagine the severe PTSD the soldiers inevitably have? Whatever, it’s still pretty.

Red shirt:

Speaks for itself, really. There was a baby version, too, but it seemed unspeakably cruel.

Proclamation board:

Yeah, yeah, you can buy the wands and that, but I want THIS. I could hang it on the wall and write shouty notes on it.

NO ONE SHALL EAT THE LAST OF THE CHOCOLATE ON PAIN OF DEATH

THE SHOW ‘FRIENDS’ IS NOW BANNED FROM THE TV UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE

NOTHING WILL BE BORROWED WITHOUT EXPRESS WRITTEN PERMISSION FROM THE OWNER, SO HANDS OFF MY STUFF

Ride In Dalek:

I don’t care that I’m way too big to fit in it, I NEED IT NOOOOOW.
