Have you ever looked into your ice beverages and thought, “This drink is all well and good, but these ice cubes are so dull.”  Well, they don’t have to be!  You can geek up that drink with some help from nerdy ice cube trays.  You know what’s better than drinking a nice cold soda?  Drinking a nice cold soda with a tiny frozen Han Solo in it.  Or if you feel that Star Wars already has its wampa mitts into too much merchandise already, go with a little R-rated sci-fi and throw some Alien eggs into your iced-tea.  Nothing refreshes like a frozen xenomorph fetus.

Hit the jump to check out the ice trays and where you can buy them.

One Minifig to Rule Them All: THE LORD OF THE RINGS and THE HOBBIT LEGO Coming Summer 2012

by Matt Goldberg    Posted: December 16th, 2011 at 8:52 am

LEGO has picked up the rights to some of the biggest movie properties around including Star Wars, Spider-Man, Harry Potter, Pirates of the Caribbean, and Batman.  Now they have another big title (technically two titles) on the way: The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit.  I can only begin to dream of the massive, time-consuming glory these sets will offer.  It will probably cost well over $100 for the set, but I want to spend an entire day building Helm’s Deep (I can’t confirm they’re going to offer it, but I’d be shocked it they didn’t).  But think of the possibilities: The Shire. Rivendell. Mirkwood. Rohan. Minas freaking Tirith.

Hit the jump for the press release and sound off in the comments about what you can’t wait to build.  The release of the LEGO sets is timed to coincide with the build up to the first part of Peter Jackson’s The Hobbit adaptation, The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey, which opens December 14, 2012.  Part two, The Hobbit: There and Back Again, opens December 13, 2013.

While it’s been awhile since we’ve done a Geek Gifts, when I saw the Christopher Reeve Superman 12-inch figure by Hot Toys and Sideshow Collectibles, I knew we had to bring it back.  According to the press release, “the movie-accurate Superman collectible is specially crafted based on the image of Christopher Reeve as The Man of Steel, highlighting the authentic head sculpt, movie-accurate costume and detailed light-up figure stage imitating the Fortress of Solitude.”

As you can tell by the images, the figure looks amazing.  Hit the jump for a lot more info on the figure.
