Star Trek TNG Corridor Door Cover Makes It So… Cool

Posted on by

Of all the awesome tech in Star Trek: The Next Generation, there were two things I really wanted. I wanted the replicator not for “Tea, Earl Grey, Hot” but so I could have all the snacks I wanted on a whim. “Eggs, Cadbury, Not Melted.” I also wanted doors that automatically opened when I walked up to them and made that satisfying “swish” sound. I’ll never get either of those things, but at least I can get this sweet TNG corridor door cover.

Install this on your door, and it will look like you are peering out of your quarters as you prepare to walk to the bridge and fight off Q’s latest antics. The 38″ x 84″ cover fits over the doors using elastic corners like a bed sheet. It looks like it’s made of that flimsy plastic material used in decorative door covers for Halloween and Christmas, but this one is made from machine-washable polyester. Rather than putting Santa or an axe murderer on your door, go with a corridor from the NCC-1701-D.

ThinkGeek has the Next Generation of door covers for just $24.99.

Space Invaders Backpack: Push Start to Carry

Posted on by

Way back in the day, my game of choice on the Atari 2600 was Space Invaders. That was about all I wanted to play, with a little Pitfall thrown in the mix. Oddly enough, I don’t recall ever seeing a Space Invaders machine in the arcade back in the day. But now you can carry one around on your back with this backpack that looks like the game’s original arcade cabinet.

The bag has a print inside that looks like the little pixelated characters from the game. The bag has cool little invader characters for zipper pulls, and its straps are padded and adjustable. The main flap has magnets to keep it closed and there’s a padded pocket for your laptop.

The bag is water resistant and has silicone buttons and a slot where you can actually insert quarters. It’s not back-to-school time yet, but you need this backpack. It’s $49.99(USD) at ThinkGeek and available now.

Sharknado 3 Bobbleheads Are Coming to Get You

Posted on by

My daughter and I were looking for something to watch the other day and we landed on the original Sharknado. I don’t remember that blonde dude’s name off the top of my head, but I remember him as the dude who drove a Corvette ZR1 in 90210 back in the day.

Sharknado may be the cheesiest movie I have ever seen, but it was surprisingly entertaining. Anytime sharks fly out of the sky to eat people a movie can’t be all bad. I laughed a lot, which made my daughter mad because the movie was “dramatic not funny.” If you follow the franchise, you know they also produced two sequels.

These Sharknado 3 bobbleheads each have a shark’s head along with its fins sticking out of a tornado. The heads bobble up and down and will cost you $17.99(USD) each at ThinkGeek. They are as cheesy as the movies, and like the movies, they are still pretty cool.

Star Wars Stormtrooper Mug Will Miss your Lips

I think if you are trying to reduce your caffeine intake, this is the perfect coffee cup for you. It’s a Stormtrooper helmet and since Stormtroopers are notoriously bad at hitting things, the drink will never make it into your mouth.

That means your 24 ounces of coffee will stay in the mug – or spill all over the table – thereby reducing your caffeine intake. There, I just solved your issue with jitters. You’re welcome.

This mug goes perfectly with the Darth Vader helmet mug, which is known to force crush caffeine cravings. Get your own Stormtrooper mug at ThinkGeek for $24.99.
