Sick stencil featuring the ED-209 from RoboCop. Easily one of the most obscure geeky references I’ve seen in graffiti. And that little kid should totally know better than to eff with the Enforcement Droid Series 209, or else he might end up like this guy: Obviously re-cut for comedic effect, but it’s still a crazy scene.

Kordian Lewandowski turns blends religious Renaissance art and geek culture with his polystyrene foam block carving titled Game Over, based on the famous La Pietá by Michelangelo.
Fun fact: Michelangelo was only 24 years old when he sculpted La Pietá. Suddenly, my life seems all the more worthless.
I’ve always wondered what steps one takes when carving something out of a block of stone or marble or, in this case, polystyrene. Now I know.
It’s so huge. Also, that’s what she said. [Via Kotaku]
Graffiti featuring standalone gaming icons is cool and all, but I especially love when they’re mixed in with letterstyles. This awesomeness is magnified when you add light painting to the mix, as can be seen by this Pikachu pic uploaded by Charles Massengill.
Josh “f+” Pearce made this awesome set of 20 custom 3″ Dunnys that he’s selling blindboxed for a whopping $85 apiece. While the price is pretty huge considering a manufactured Dunny retails for around $8, these things look pretty freaking amazing. If you want one of these bad boys for your collection, you can pick one up right here. As an added bonus, anyone who snags one within the next 30 days has the chance to score one of Josh’s 8″ custom Codexian figures for free. Check out more pics over on f+’s blog. I obviously need to get on the ball and make more customs. There’s some obvious ducats to be made.
And one more thing… my head is made of cheese and it’s delicious. Make your own by following these instructions. [Via Boing Boing]
When the floating words mysteriously appeared, none of Mushroom Kingdom’s denizens knew what it meant or what to do, but they did know that things were about to get way more fresh. [Via Idiolector]
The Huffington Post has a list of 11 Creations That Prove “Mario Bros” Was The Most Important Game Ever and I’ve already seen everything on their list a fafillion times on different sites throughout the years. The only thing that was new to me was this awesome flower pot, so I’m sharing it with you. Because I fucking love you. Yeah, I said it.

If draping a severed dinosaur head by its tongue around your neck is your cup of tea, then this is probably… your cup of tea. You barbarian. Fashionably crafty dino cruelty can be yours for $45 right here. [Via That Girl's Site]
