Okay, I’m sure these weren’t actually crafted as a playset, but could you resist posing them in adorable ways? Clearly the artist couldn’t; there’s even a backdrop to simulate a moment from the game! And look at that little goomba, all turned over. Mario’s just schooled him, shoe-style.

Look! They do actually all come apart and everything.…

I don’t know about you, but when I’m waking up from a nightmare, I want to be able to clutch my blanket in comfort, not in added terror. Apparently, though, not everyone is like this, or this Silent Hill-themed blanket would not exist.

Seriously, Pyramid Head is just about the scariest character in all of…

The world of Katamari Damacy is a strange one, to be sure, but it sure is cute. The Prince and his colorful cousins are each cuter than the others, and though the idea of sticking people and animals to a giant ball and then rolling them around is pretty horrific if you think about it, in…

With winter around the corner, I could use a new scarf. But I’m not sure I’m confident enough in my own masculinity to walk around wearing this crocheted Super Mario Bros. Piranha Plant scarf around my neck.

Some babies are just hipper than others. You can tell by their expensive t-shirts and awesome accessories. It’s not any baby who can rock a cushy Cthulhu play blanket, you know?

Craftster FicklePegasus has turned an office joke into a handmade gift fit for only the coolest of babies: a soft and cuddly Cthulhu, complete…

The Tanooki suit was just one of the many charms of Super Mario Bros. 3, but the real thing ain’t got nothing on this amigurumi version. Mario’s never looked so adorable.

Just look at that. Totally better than the original.
Looks like this little guy is sold out of Michelle Rheaume’s Etsy store (and can…

I know we give Mario, Pac-Man, Space Invaders and Sonic plenty of geek craft love around here, but do you guys remember a little video game called Lemmings? I think I must have spent a million and one hours playing this game, despite the fact the concept really was just a 2-dimensional escort mission on…

Crochet connoisseur Rin aka deadcraft aka oddgumi makes wonderful dolls of personalities both fictional and real, as long as they’re awesome. I am confident that a Barney Stinson doll is in the works. Let’s look at some her creations:

Now that’s something you don’t see everyday. Jamie looks kinda creepy though. Adam’s spot on, but…

Oh, Samus. Even when you’re all sexed up in your Zero Suit, or Justin Baileyed into your bikini, you’re still supposed to be an icon of female strength and power (and just generally bad to the bone). But in amigurumi form, you’re reduced to abject cuteness. For shame!

And if that’s not bad enough, here’s…

There’s not much that’s cute about EA’s Dead Space. The very name is terrifying, and the game’s Necromorphs are among some of gaming’s most disturbing creatures. Basically, it’s the worst candidate for amigurumi ever… and yet, look! That little Necromorph is adorable!

Just look at those little yarn tentacle-grippy-crawly things pouring out of his mouth.…

Everybody can stop with the geek-inspired crochet projects now. The contest is over and MageAkyla of Crafster has won the whole thing with this brilliant crochet Tom Servo from MST3k.

The only way this project could be any better is if it were bigger, or if there were thousands of crochet Tom Servos, or if…

Gege Crochet loves scarves. I think “scarves” is a weird word. Fortunately Gege’s scarves are anything but weird, like this nice Princess Toadstool scarf.

She said that she made this scarf to complement a Mario scarf that she also made. But then she didn’t like the back of the scarf with all the ends weaved…
