If I didn’t have my glasses on, I’d probably be fooled, but you won’t. This LEGO Big Mac Combo was created by the Japanese LEGO artists Sachiko.

It’s kind of cool to think that LEGO artistry is actually a profession, or maybe more of a hobby. Either way, this LEGO…

Despite it’s unintentionally naughty name, the Blow Sofa is actually a neat concept.

Just add “-up” to “Blow” and you’ll get the idea.…

Blizzard will soon unleash cute plush pets for World of Warcraft… fans, starting with the Wind Rider Cub and Gryphon Hatchling.

Each adorable widdle monster will come with a special code that will unlock its virtual, non-combat, account-bound equivalent. No word on the price or exact date of release yet,

These robots are made to…

I barely even notice most purses, which is pretty simple because I’m a guy. But hey, this looks like a great purse to me!

This makes the perfect Valentine’s gift for your girlfriend. On top of showing her how much of a geek you were for buying it, she gets…
