It kinda niggles that I don’t know anymore where I saw this image first and downloaded it but one’s for sure: it can not be absent from Frankylicio.us, with or without attribution. After all it’s LEGO + Star Wars.

LEGO & Darth Vader. Now Your Worst Nightmares and Morning Terrors
Know that feeling waking up in the morning? Your cell phone making horrible noises and annoying you with the sound of its alarm and the vibrations on your bedside cabinet? The nightmare of most of us or worst way to wake up.
Rather than having to wake up you wished you spent a little more time dreaming of how you could beat the Stormtroopers or Darth Vader even swinging your lightsaber through that virtual state of mental vortex you are in. Your awesome dream.
Or you might just have been reminiscing those earlier days when even non-geeks found it cool that you played with LEGO, AKA being a kid and more even… because you were quiet.
But what could have been a further successful mashup of Star Wars and LEGO now just turned out to be our worst nightmare.
That’s right: a LEGO Darth Vader mashup alarm clock. You can even get a Stormtrooper. For around $40 only.
Cool? Maybe but in all honesty nothing that wakes me up digitally is awesome.
Caprica Six is that you?
If That R2D2 Swimming Suit Is Too Much for You…
So you might not be the person to wear or endorse the R2D2 swimming suit, fear not there’s always the Steampunk alternative. Not as a bathing suit of course and actually it is not ‘real Steampunk‘, whatever that may be for people who don’t read Boing Boing, either. The creator of the ‘Antique R2D2′ featured below is good though. After lots of R2s over the last years, this is probably one of the best ones I’ve seen.

This One Has Got Me, I Just Don’t Know How or Whether That’s Good
There was a time, not that long ago, when I actively published here and that of course did include Star Wars nerdery. Now most of that stuff has shifted to ForeverGeek and most of the time it’s even not me who manages the Star Wars drools and sexism over there. Times change.
And then there were bathing suits.
And I got thinking.
First I thought “W000t!”
Then I thought, “What if some McDonalds loving SAHM fancied this.
I don’t think I’m going to hit the beach today.
Looking For A Pet? Why Don’t You Keep An AT-AT?
Many people keep animals as pet but what’s fun about animals? Ok, they can be cute and are so much better with lightsabers but let’s be honest… animals are animals, right?
We would maybe make an exception for BigFoot or Alf but other than that, no pet animals are not the real deal. And so thinks Nick Drummond whose pictures of his preferred pet animal we gladly stole for this post.
Why? Because we can he keeps an AT-AT that’s why. And if you don’t think that rocks, well then maybe you shouldn’t be reading frankylicio.us. Read more
Is It A Death Star or Is It Just A Watermelon? It’s Friday, Let’s Get Drunk Instead
I love watermelons. I hate the seeds though, but nothing beats an awesome summery watermelon cocktail, with vodka, some peach liquor and maybe even some passionfruit juice in the mix. Havana Club? A watermelon mojito, maybe?
I’ll have two thanks. Until then, feel free to have your fun with your watermelon. Maybe you first should get some LEGO before you play with melons , still it’s awesome.

Awesomeness? Batman vs. Darth Vader, With Lightsabers. Frakking Awesome, Yes! EPIC
I’m torn, split up between two feelings. Of course total awesomeness but also WTF!
Batman, Darth Vader, Lightsabers. Can it get it better? Thrown all three in one pot, right?
But maybe that’s the wrong thing to do.
So it seems that rumours of a Dark Horse – Batman cross-over comic could become reality? Who knows whether the dream of many a nerd will ever be realised. What it did bring though is this awesome drawing by Dave Dorman.
If only Vader knew about their profiles
The Empire certainly should have known lots more. Vader miserably failed and missed out on all the fun the Jedis and Rebels have. He should have kept up better with their Facebook, or do you think they had customized their privacy settings?
Star Wars The Phantom Menace Review
This is 70 minutes long but contrarily to me you probably have nothing to do on this Saturday, so you might as well do something useful and watch this awesome review in 7 parts.
Enjoy it.
Millenium Falcon bed. It’s really a bed. For realz!
We only just had the ultimate Marvel-Disney crossover and now we can follow it up with the ultimate bed for geeks and nerds united.
Best of all? It’s a double bed so you’ll have plenty of space to put your laptop, hide some cans of Mountain Dew and even then you’ll still have space left over for a tablet to put your Pot Noodles on. You get it, it’s a nerd’s dream.
Let me present you the Millenium Falcon bed.
