Jimmy The Exploder: Cutest Lego Build Ever Shows Emotions
We keep adding to our long list of epic Lego builds here on Bit Rebels since there are a flood of them always hitting our radar. As I have stated before, we really try to feature most of them, but space and time are simply not enough at the moment. We keep all our Lego submissions in a special kind ...
Star Wars Voice Changer For The Hardcore Cosplayer
We have all tried it, it's just part of being a Star Wars fan, or maybe you have done it even if you have just watched Star Wars once. We all go, "Luke, I am your father!" with your best voice impression of the Dark Lord of the Siths, Darth Vader. I don't know why, but this phenomenon has been going ...
Textspresso: Make Coffee By Texting This Brilliant Machine Mod
Just yesterday, Richard wrote in one of his articles that "modders might be some of the most creative technology geeks out there." I agree with that statement, and what I'm about to show you is yet another perfect example. The gadget you see below is called a Textspresso machine. It is about 300 par ...
How To: Peel A Potato In 10 Seconds
Although we write about a lot of silliness on Bit Rebels, one this is for sure. We definitely provide you with the most random bits of information that you never knew you needed to know. It's the kind of stuff that after you read about it, you realize you've always wanted to know, but you just didn' ...
7 Eggstraordinary Star Wars Easter Egg Designs
You know we couldn't let Easter go by without slipping in an Easter/Star Wars mashup of some kind, right? I just couldn't resist these super cute and very funny little Star Wars Easter egg designs. Traditionally, Easter eggs are simply dyed bright pastel colors. These days though, nobody follows the ...
Sparkly Retro Disco Ball Motorcycle Helmet Design
I don't even ride motorcycles, but this helmet makes me want to get on one and go very, very fast. With a helmet like this, you'd definitely need a little sound system built-in the inside. It would be a crime to wear a helmet this badass with no music. And of course you couldn't wear just any sungla ...
Darth Vader & Son: The Cute Moments Never Seen
It's weird how movie companies and script writers recycle almost entire lives for the characters they put in movies. I mean, look at it. There are so many box office movies and franchises out there that mimic each other in order to maximize the viewer's emotional pull to the movies themselves. It's ...
Now You Can Have Your Own Personalized Superhero Figurine
If you have watched a lot of superhero movies in your days, you have probably at some point thought about being a superhero yourself. I think all of us do, if just for a fraction of a moment. It seems to be in our nature that we are fascinated by abnormal superpowers, and how they are used. I mean, ...
Star Wars Heels For All You Geeky Girls
It's time to cover a little bit of geek fashion here on Bit Rebels. There is way too little fashion dedicated to geeks, and the stuff that is out there is usually quite regular stuff, if you ask me. Apart from a few really geeky things, it's usually are just a t-shirt with something geeky written on ...
Star Wars Condom Designs: May The Condoms Be With You
After seeing so many fun condom creations over the years, I don't even think of condoms as being used in their traditional sense anymore. I think of them as more of a prop for snarky, silly designs. As a matter of fact, I think I'll start a Pinterest board today for condom designs. If you want to se ...
Join The Starfleet With Your Own Star Trek Captain’s Chair
There's one website I try to stay away from anywhere around April Fools Day, and that's Think Geek. I've been called gullible my whole life, and I usually fall for most of the April Fools jokes that people tell me. That's not a problem unless I'm writing about one on Bit Rebels and I don't know it. ...
Digital Carpet: An Innovative & Interactive Technology Rug
I remember back in the '90s when the only evidence of technology most of us had in our lives was in the computer on our desk. I'll never forget that modem sound, and back in the day, that sound was like music to my ears. When the fax machine was introduced, it was huge news. It seemed like overnight ...
Epic Star Wars Augmented Window Lego Battle Display
When it comes to window shopping, we haven't seen too much awesomeness lately. It's been the same boring approach pretty much for years now. Sure, there is some "innovative" thinking during the Christmas season, but that seems to be the very edge of it. There is so much more that the store owners co ...
The Handy Guide For Understanding The Word “Mate”
If you follow some friends who live in Australia on Twitter, or any social media site, you have probably seen the word "mate" in their correspondence. I live in Atlanta, and we don't use the word mate here, well, at least not in the way they mean it in Australia. So, it's always fun to see that word ...
Epic Battlestar Valkyrie Lego Build Weighs In At 110.9 Pounds
Every time I stumble over something that is beyond the scope of normal, I always get a little bit extra excited. Getting impressed these days is certainly not easy. The load of epic creations on the Internet is large in number, and it is increasing by the second. Everything from papercraft to Lego b ...
