Grab-it Pack is Awesome and Incredibly Geeky

grabitpack.jpgYou may recall my Steampunk Nerf Gun post from a while back, where I painted a Nerf Maverick all metallic to go with a costume I was making. I got an email from the creator of the Grab-it Pack(™!) who saw the post and mentioned that multiple people have purchased this pocketed accessory as a holster for their Nerf Mavericks.

Extra pockets are always nice and the Grab-it Pack actually looks like an incredibly useful pack if you're going hiking, cosplaying as the Man-With-Too-Many-Pockets or raiding a tomb full of ancient treasure and secrets.

They are about 23 bucks and you can order them from GrabitPack.com.

[Thanks, Louis!]

Awesome Handmade Piranha Plant Costume

Kristen as a piranha plant from Super Mario Brothers for HalloweenI am a big fan of cosplay, and Halloween is like cosplayer Christmas. Or... just cosplayer Halloween I guess. While this year I didn't end up making a costume (my plans for a Weighted Companion Cube outfit sort of fell through), my equally crafty friends went to town. Here is a photo of my good friend Kristen dressed as a piranha plant from Super Mario Brothers. That lady is so crafty.

Vote for Kristen over at Wired!
