The tallest lego tower


Yeah, I think this can also pass as a “geeky thing”.  I mean you’d need to at least have firm grasp in structural engineering, materials engineering & physics.   This lego tower was built by a team in the Legoland Windsor theme park in the U.K. of 500,000 LEGO bricks, and stands at just about 100 feet […]

One Toy, Billions of Answers

I love a good puzzle but absolutely hate getting stumped.  It was because of this, I was the guy who took some liberties with the Rubik’s Cube stickers.
There’s a new cube in town with no wrong answers!  Meet the Neocube. Composed of 216 individual ‘high-energy rare-earth magnets,’ you can  create and re-create billions of different […]

How “geeky” is “geeky”

  Okay, I’m filing this under the “toys” category! Ha ha!This has got to be one of the “geekiest” things I’ve ever seen.  I know the picture’s perfect for the caption “imagine no more”, but I just couldn’t make my mind believe that one will never imagine at all.  I bet this is a perfect product […]

The Tetris Vinyl Wall Decals

Tetris fans… look out (!) great idea.
Easy concept and the effect is well worth it for all Tetris fans.  I know I am one and wouldn’t mind hanging this somewhere at home.  I like how it’s not TOO LOUD to the eye.  It can be there, and not be there.  I think it’s a right […]

A growing Batman collection

I’ve been talking about Revoltech toys to anyone who would care to listen that I totally forgot about my recent Batman haul.
Ever since I decided to trim down my toy collection to just two lines, Batmans have become my primary line. I am constantly on the lookout for affordable deals (I’m a cheap collector) in […]

In love with Revoltech figures

I was about to blog about my recent Batman action figure haul that was to beef up my existing Batman collection but I’ve decided to talk about my new love for Revoltech figures instead.
Revoltech figures are made by the Japanese company Kaiyodo and are known for their high degree of articulation. The figures all carry […]

A satisfying Transformers toy haul

One of my hobbies aside from collecting CDs is collecting action figures. It’s a hobby that I’ve been into on and off since I was in high school. Even though I’ve drastically limited the figures I’ve collected over the years (I’m more discerning now), there are still some toy lines that I get if I […]

Get Your Beek On This Valentine’s Day

ForeverGeek is not big on turning out romance advice, unless of course you count showing off your old gaming consoles as the art of seduction.
If you’ve been too preoccupied with CES, MacWorld and DEMO 2008, there’s a good chance you still haven’t picked up a gift for that special woman who helps you assimilate into […]

Mattel to release DC Universe line this year

Mattel did not have a good 2007, especially with all of that controversy over the lead paint used on its toys. But even with that kind of bad publicity looming over the company, the guys at Mattel are still churning out new products for kids and kids at heart.
I am quite excited about the DC […]

New Iron Man toys coming next year

One of the most hotly anticipated movies next year is the new Iron Man movie. The cleverly cast film (Robert Downey, Jr. is a spot on choice for Tony Stark) is scheduled to be shown on May 2, 2008, which marks beginning of the summer film season. Of course, a superhero film will never be […]

Cool Christmas gift: Cubeworld Cubes

It’s really hard to choose gifts for your techie friends. Most likely they already have what you have and what they don’t have, they don’t for a reason (it’s too expensive, phasers haven’t been invented yet). It’s a real dilemma.
For problems like this, there is only one solution, amusing gifts with a tech bent […]

Scorpion mini-bust for 2008 release

Among Spider-man’s rogue’s gallery, I have to say Scorpion is one of my least favorites. I am not too sold on his origin story (a private investigator hired by J Jonah Jameson, who was eventually used in an experiment to grant him scorpion-like powers), and really, even though he may be the bad guy I’d […]

Marvel Legends ‘08 line shows promise

I used to collect Marvel Legends toys. I loved the way their initial lines were sculpted. Take for example the Thor figure that really captures the wrath and godly demeanor of the Norse god of war. unfortunately, the line has continually declined in quality through the years. From the great articulation around the torso, the […]

Awesome Batman figures from DC Direct

I think I’ve mentioned before that I collect CDs and comicbooks. Well, let me just add that I also collect PC and console games, DVDs, vintage watches and action figures. I used to collect a lot of action figure lines but because of space constraints and taking notice of the suffering my wife has […]
