The attention to detail on this Lego Ghostbusters tattoo is extraordinary. Based on this, I would say Skinfinity Tattoo in Winter Haven Florida is a good place to get inked. Ask for Heather Maranda for all your nerdy tattooing needs.

This full-size Lego Minifig space helmet concept from designer Jonathan Robson is intended to be a learning aid for children. As a child Robson was a Lego Club member and he attributes the comics that came in the monthly club magazine with helping him learn to read. The helmet is his way of giving back.

A life-size LEGO Space Helmet plays downloadable audio tracks for comics. The concept designed by Jonathan Robson is based on a LEGO helmet with a gold space visor. The helmet acts as a headset for listening to the audio for LEGO comics as well as a role-playing toy. Once subscribed to Audio Comic, you’ll receive the LEGO comic through the post with your activation code to download the audio onto a USB brick. Simply slot the brick into the back of the helmet, put it on and enjoy the exciting LEGO Audio comic experience! Two buttons on the side of the helmet allow to skip through pages in the audio tracks.

Again, the helmet is only a concept at this point, but it’s a cute idea. Even the instruction manual for a breadmaker would be thrilling when filtered through this helmet.

Fergie got in touch with her inner nerd with this Lego-ified ensemble from designer Michael Schmidt at Nickelodeon’s 24th Annual Kids’ Choice Awards.

Heels make me cringe. I like the way they look on my feet, but I usually can only stand to wear them for a few hours at a time about once a month. I’m klutzy, and I don’t like having achy feet. But for these stilettos? I’d suffer. They’re made with LEGO bricks for crying out loud! Sure, they have a clunky look. I like that. Bring on the kitsch and bright colors.

One can only hope that another designer will be inspired to complete the look with a LEGO purse and dress.

These babies are part of Finn Stone’s Spring 2011 collection in a limited edition of 12. Apparently, they can be purchased thorough Byard Art, a UK-based gallery. No word on pricing, though I suspect you could refurbish an old pair of heels yourself with some bricks and a little glue.

Check out these awesome Lego smiley face space minifig cufflinks from Gr0gimann’s Etsy shop. But that’s not all—well dressed geeks can also choose cufflinks with themes from Harry Potter, Star Wars, D&D, Indiana Jones and more. One of my faves is pictured after the break—the formal Stormtrooper.

I guess this shirt proves that you can rock to metal—even if you’re plastic.

If it took three years for these guys to create authentic Halo costumes from scratch, I wonder how long it would take to make a wearable suit out of Lego? Actually, that might be a little too difficult to suit up in—but at least we know that it is possible to make a wearable helmet thanks to Ben Calukins.

Oh, I do…I most definitely do. Is it too late to change my wedding ring to something like this? Yeah, I guess it is—but ColorMeKatie’s‘s friend Tyler certainly had the right idea. As you will see after the break, the ring is actually compatible with real Lego bricks.

Instructables user “=D” spent a month and a half creating these DIY headphones from LEGO, which have been described as “sturdy enough to be tossed around in a bag”. Apparently the only major problem is sound leakage, but that would be a small price to pay in order hear tunes emanating from your favorite nerd medium. Check out some additional photos after the break.

I’m not sure which came first, the Threadless t-shirt or this image.
