This Han Solo LEGO pixel art from The Sydney Brick Show this past April is mindblowingly cool. If you aren’t familiar with the event, it’s an opportunity for Australian LEGO sculptors bring some of their creations and get together with other fans.

Dogs are truly man’s best friend. They’re there for you through thick and thin, even during times when other human beings refuse to speak with you. I know many dog owners who love their canine companions to bits, so it shouldn’t really come as a surprise that doggy food and treat trucks are opening all over cities.

I wish I could buy this thing. The team at Porcubimmer Motors has created a pretty accurate recreation of The Homer. You might remember it as the car designed by Homer Simpson that brought his brother’s empire crumbling down.

Japanese toilet company Toto has a bike that runs on poop. If you want to save on fuel and produce your own fuel instead, this is the bike for you. The toilet you see there is just decorative, but the engine does run on poop.

Last year we told you about an official Back to the Future LEGO set that was coming down the line. Well, it will arrive on July 18th, but if you are eager to take a look, here it is.

The Custom Saber Shop forum member Eastern57 made a lightsaber that would be at home in Patton Oswalt’s Star Wars universe. It’s a lightsaber decked in Shellhead’s winning crimson and gold colors. But Eastern57 didn’t stop with the paint job.

So you have a LEGO purse and LEGO shoes, now all you need is the dress to go with. But this isn’t just an everyday dress – this is a wedding dress, made entirely from LEGO bricks.

So far 3D video hasn’t taken off like high definition did, but that hasn’t stopped entrepreneurs from exploring its potential. But while most 3D-capable gadgets tout their cutting edginess, the inventors of Poppy did the opposite.

Relax mutants. That is not a real sentinel. You can go back to your schoolwork which Professor X is expecting in the morning. This awesome stained glass creation was made by Zero Wing Labs and it looks amazing.

How did Superman get so big and strong? No kids, he didn’t drink his milk. The answer is this super bread. On Krypton it is but bread, but once it is touched by the Earth’s Sun, it becomes Superbread!

Back in the old days, in James Bond movies as well as other films and TV shows, people always tricked their pursuers with a license plate that flipped to reveal another. Now you can own your very own license plate flipper.

In an alternate universe, the characters from Game of Thrones are all alive and kicking. Imagine if they took a break from all that scheming and fighting and decided to live normal lives like ours. I don’t think they’ll have much difficulty finding mates of their own, but if they ever decided to try online dating, then Team Pwnicorn has got them covered.

Last month we saw a drone that can both drive around and fly. It’s a shame it can’t run on water as well, because as the Ziphius shows, having a drone on water seems like a lot of fun.

Now Back To The Future fans can turn their iPad into the Grays Sports Almanac that Old Biff gave to Young Biff in Back to the Future II. It’s just too bad that it didn’t arrive in time to get some future scores.

Whoever said LEGO was for boys obviously hasn’t seen the LEGO purse (which I’d like to buy, if only they weren’t so expensive!) and these LEGO stilettos or stiLEGOs, for short.

Jim Lee is one of the most famous comic book artist and writers of my generation. From his breakout work with the X-Men books, co-founding Image Comics and now working at DC Comics, Lee is also certainly one of the most important figures in the comic book industry.
