Check out these cool Ikea styled instruction manuals for some of the best Sci Fi items ever. Nerds rejoice... now you can create your own dinosaur, construct a lightsaber, or travel through time via Tardis or Delorean! The best part of these has to be the key of what each one comes with. Why is there 0 Jar Jar's??? I can't believe it!!! Via College Humor.

A to Z Blogging Challenge - Day #20 - Letter T - The Tardis

The Tardis throughout the history of Dr. Who
I have recently become enamored with the British TV hit Dr. Who, so what better to celebrate the letter T then to salute the Tardis. For those of you out there who never watched Dr. Who (do it know... its all on Netflix Instant!) the Tardis (Time And Relative Dimensions In Space) is the time machine that allows the good Doctor and his companion(s) to travel through time and space. It is in the shape of a 50's London police call box so as to blend in an ordinary object, and many explanations have been given as to why it stays that way. The most popular is that the ship has a faulty "chameleon circuit" and is forced to keep re-using this disguise.

Tardis In Flight
The Dr. Who franchise is well over 50 years old and has seen many forms, yet the Tardis is the one constant that always remains unchanged. I never watched the show before a few weeks ago, yet I have long associated that London police box with the series despite not knowing anything about it. In England the word "Tardis" is often used to describe any space that is bigger inside than it appears to be outside (thats a wikifact right there son!). It's tempermental, and doesn't always cooperate with it's Time Lord master, but it is super cool and iconic nonetheless.

Lego Iconic Vol#2






I am such a huge Lego nerd that words can not explain. Soooo I've decided to use my favorite blog site CCD.com as an outlet to get some of this stuff that I see every day, built out of bricks, out of my skull and onto the blogosphere where it can't hurt my cerebral cortex. Each month I'll be posting the best of the best hoping to inspire the Lego maniac in each of you...young and old.  Enjoy!




Lego and Dr. Who enthusiast McMorran not only created a stupendous little Dr. Who & Tardis but also, took it along with him to the huge BrickCon convention and placed it within other builders' dioramas, with their permission, ofcourse, furthering the good doctor's adventure. Can you locate the Tardis and Doctor in each? Sweet!
