Behold! In honor of the recent release of HALO: Infinite, The folks from Hacksmith Industries have created the world’s first real life plasma energy sword, and it’s just as dangerous as you’d expect. That thing burns at 5000°! For the build, they’ve used the same tech as the plasma lightsaber they invented last year. Check it out!
Give peace a f* chance. Peacemaker arrives on HBO Max this January, and I’m totally looking forward to it! I love that the trailer doesn’t reveal too much of the show!

Take a ride on the Treetop Express to get a bird’s eye view of the neighbourhood from 30 feet above ground, where a little elevator will whisk you to the top of a tree. You’ll fly through tree branches, floating platforms, toy construction zones, and the finish line of a wood block fortress. There are leaps, loopty loops, boosters, tunnels, and even a shark encounter!
This tree track took 1 month to construct using a variety of materials including wood, ladders, kiddy pools, string, pulleys, a fishing pole, cordless drill, PVC tubing, blocks, plastic container tubs, cardboard boxes, pool noodles, our dog Kodi the Australian Shepherd, and numerous Hot Wheels products.
Here’s how to make your basic RPG character more interesting: give them a little quirk that conflicts with their archetype!

So the other day, while my girlfriend and I were at Costco, we stumbled on a HUGE 4D model of an Imperial Star Destroyer, and from a distance, it looked almost identical to the iconic ship we first saw in the original Star Wars trilogy. Upon closer inspection, I realized the thing was entirely made from cardboard, and it was nothing short of glorious. I immediately jumped on the occasion and bought two, one for myself, and another one as a Christmas gift from a very special Star Wars geek in my life. After a few hours of work (with my 10-year-old,) this is what I ended up with:
Amazing, isn’t it? It’s also quite big at a little over 30 inches long! On the box, it says for 8 years old and over, but I don’t agree, unless the kid does it with his parents. For those interested in getting one, I’d also recommand you use some super glue during certain steps as the regular craft glue they provide does not always do the job, or at least, not quickly enough.
Here’s the official description:

This multi pack model set comes with four detailed model kits and is a great activity and collector product for the ultimate Star Wars fan. Each kit comes with precision engineering paper sheets that you assemble. You first build the interior of the model, then the exterior. Each model is super fun, and a great display when complete. Stands are included. Ages 8+. This product features: 342 Pieces. Multi Pack Set. 1x StarWars Imperial Star Destroyer. 1x StarWars Imperial Shuttle. 2x StarWars Imperial Tie Fighter. Stands included. Display poster included. Step by step instructions included. Craft glue included.

This post has been sitting in my draft folder for a week, but a few days ago, I also purchased the AT-AT, AT-ST, and Snow Speeder set, but I barely started working on it, with only the Snow Speeder completed so far:
The verdict? Highly recommanded if you’re a Star Wars fan who likes to build things.
