Step Aside, C-3PO: R2-D2 BBQ Wants to Smoke Your Meat


Life just doesn't get much better than space operas and outside meat.
Whether you're in it for honey-glazed leg of TaunTaun or teriyaki Hutt lips, a Star Wars-themed barbeque can only bring good things. Doubly so if you happen to employ the R2-D2 smoker seen here.

Instead of beeping, complaining, and falling into swamps, this R2-D2 uses its own 55-gallon drum body to smoke the crap out of any meat products you should see fit.

Any true grill-master knows that smoking is absolutely key. It flavors the meat so nice when you cook it low and slow, you know? Trust me, even the cheapest cut of meat will taste straight outta Memphis once it spends twenty hours heating up inside an astromech's body.

The R2-BQ is the design of one Philip Wise, master of TheForce.net, Rebelscum.com, and The New Wookiee Workshop, from whence this project comes. Wise is also one of the biggest private collectors of Star Wars memorabilia ever.

The Dark Knight/Power Rangers


Not in a million years would you see a "dark" Rangers flick...but a former fan can dream.

Few fans of the original '90s era Power Rangers caught the big screen adaptation when it hit theaters
-- they'd grown up, and really, who gives a crap about Ivan Ooze? But someone saw potential in this villain-come-to-town story, and reinvigorated the series with a boost from our good friend Christopher Nolan.
