In a recent episode of Make It Real from YouTube channel The Hacksmith, the crew built something pretty epic – a real-life version of Doomfist’s gauntlet from Overwatch. This thing is no joke. It weighs in at 45 pounds and packs approximately 2,600 pounds of pneumatic punching force.

If you and your pal are thinking of dressing up as Rick and Morty this Halloween, the guys at GearProps have got one of you covered. You’ll be the life of any party with this handmade Rick Sanchez costume head.

Tim Burton’s Beetlejuice is still one of my favorite movies of all time. It featured a great mix of wacky characters, funny dialogue, clever stop-motion animation, quirky visuals, and lots of weird and creepy stuff too.

For the longest time, the coolest headgear out of the world of music had to be Daft Punk’s iconic helmets, and Deadmau5’s light up mouse head. But earlier this year, Jay Kay of Jamiroquai donned a fantastic helmet not just loaded up with colorful LEDs, but motorized pieces which could change form.

If you aim to become your city’s friendly neighborhood Spider-Man, you are going to need a few thing – a costume and a web-shooter for instance. Well, here’s one way to make your own web-slinging gear, even if you don’t have a wealthy benefactor like Tony Stark.

We like cosplay around here, despite the fact that I am not much for dressing up (I even shun pants). People who like to go to conferences like ComicCon or WonderCon are a bit more enthusiastic about getting dressed up than I am. 

Behold the greatest animal cosplay ever. It’s a guinea pig, a rather fat and strange rodent that parents tend to buy for kids instead of a dog. This particular guinea pig is the same width from his fat little cheeks down to his piggy arse.

Late last year, we saw Negan’s bat Lucille get its own replica while it was all clean and wrapped in barbed wire. That bat replica was what it looked like before Glenn’s eyeball got popped out.

I am a huge fan of the Mass Effect franchise, and not just because it has blue cleavage in it. The games have been super cool, and I think I spent as much time mining stuff and building my ship as I did fighting bad guys.

Here’s the perfect Christmas gift for fans of Firefly. It’s Malcolm Reynolds’ holster and gun belt from the show. I mean it’s not the actual one from the show, but you know what I mean. This replica is made of real leather with metal details and comes in multiple sizes.

[Warning: Walking Dead Season 7 Spoilers Ahead] The Walking Dead can be brutal. The first episode of Season 7 was about as harsh as it comes, with Negan’s deadly baseball bat meeting bone, brains, and blood.

Back as far as I can remember my friends and I would argue about which was better, Star Wars or Star Trek. I’m in camp Star Wars, though Jar Jar Binks was almost enough to change that.

Just look at this Overwatch Reinhardt cosplay which took the stage by storm at this year’s TwitchCon. It’s all kinds of awesome. I really don’t get how he made this thing. The costume is gigantic and clearly there must be some sort of stilts involved.

A couple years back we spotted this awesome Halo Master Chief motorcycle helmet when it was nothing more than a concept in digital form on a computer. Fast forward a few years and that helmet is now officially available to purchase, ready for you to wear on your motorcycle to protect your dome from damage in an accident.

I took my kids to see Zootopia when it was in the theaters and found the film to be very funny and enjoyable. We even rented it again at home when it went on demand. To celebrate their love for the film, cosplayers Jannet “Incosplay” Vinogradova and Angela Bermudez recently dressed up as Nick Wilde and Judy Hopps respectively.

The annual E3 trade show in Los Angeles is always full of surprises. It is one of the biggest events of the year for the games industry. It’s a great way to check out upcoming titles and find out what developers are working on.
