If you want a cool, geeky gift and know what their favorite book is, Junk Studio makes some pretty awesome book lockets you’ll want to take a look at.
They have pre-made lockets for a number of books, but the really cool thing they can do is a custom book locket. All you need to do is submit the request and an image of the book/comic book cover and voilà.

This is a handmade proton pack that comes with its own little trap. It can be worn as a backpack for fun or cosplay and there are fully adjustable straps so you can find a comfortable fit no matter what your size. You can pick these up in kids and adult sizes so you can be a matching family of Ghostbusters!

This cosplayer seems to have impressed Felicia Day so much with this male version of Codex. That’s high praise, indeed.

Here’s your chance to carry a BioShock Infinite inspired vial of vigor around your neck. You can choose from eight different vigors including Bucking Bronco and Murder of Crows. Each comes on your choice of chain color and is available in either round, square or cylindrical bottles. A portion of the proceeds from every sale goes to charity, so you’ll also be helping out while you’re dressing up.

This girl may be my new hero. According to her I Ship It Like UPS Tumblr posts, “Nobody asked me to prom, so I took my calculator”. Indeed, the TI-84 will never let you down.
On a side note, I kinda love the rest of her Tumblr feed. I wish I’d had Tumblr at her age. I think I would have come out of my nerd shell much sooner.

Caleb from Hackaday built himself an 80,000-volt Thor hammer out of a tesla coil and foam. It can even light up light bulbs. I suppose it could also be used as the most elaborate stun gun ever.
See it in action after the break (complete with some Thor cosplay).
This beautiful golden snitch ring box is the perfect thing for proposing to a Harry Potter fan. It was made by redditor nintendai who used a wooden bed post knob as the foundation for his project. He cut it in half, hollowed out the inside, and then added carvings and gold paint. The finishing touch is two gold spray-painted wings attached to either side.
“The entire process took a couple of weeks (on and off because I had to keep on hiding it from her) and was the first time I actually built anything. It was an extremely rewarding process and she absolutely loved the time, thought, and effort I put into it. Hopefully this design might help some other people come up with creative ideas for their engagements!”
I don’t see how anyone could say no to this proposal.
