Your beat-up ride may not be able to make the Kessel Run, is smaller on the inside and can only go where you’ve already gone before, but you can always use your imagination. Though that could be mentally taxing depending on the state of your car, so you might want to make it easier with these geeky car emblems.

The official-looking emblems are made from silicone and then painted black and chrome to look like a traditional car badge. It already comes with “all-weather, automotive grade” double sided adhesive so your only problem will be deciding where to stick it.

BSG Plushies are Frakkin’ Soft and Cuddly

Posted on by

Whether you’re rooting for the colonies or the Cylons, you’ll love both of these plush toys, based on the fighter ships from Battlestar Galactica.  While I’m not sure if they’re based on the original 1980s series or the 21st century reboot, they look like they could pass for either since they’re so soft around the edges.

Choose from a soft and squishy Viper or a plump and plush Cylon Raider – each made from polyester and perfect for tossing around the couch or reenacting space battles in a pillow fight. They sell for $11.95(USD) each or $19.95 for the pair over at QMX.

The 111-Pound LEGO Battlestar Galactica Valkyrie

Posted on by

Did you think that Garry King’s 54-pound LEGO Battlestar Galactica spaceship was impressive? Check out his new latest creation, the BSG Valkyrie, made entirely of LEGO bricks, and weighing in at a whopping 111 pounds!

In addition to its weight, Valkyrie is huge. Gary’s new model measures 122 inches in length, 43.3 inches in width and 14.9 inches in height. The landing bays are 51 inches long. It took Gary five months to construct this 42,341-piece model of the Valkyrie. It was made only using images found on the Internet, so it might not be as accurate as some superfans would like. It’s still an amazing build.

It’s cool that this time around Gary actually built one of the ships that we’ve grown familiar with in the most recent series. Gary thinks that there are probably a few turrets missing. To be honest, I don’t really miss them. The build looks pretty darn amazing as it is.
