Propworx takes sci-fi auction online

Posted on by

We’ve covered numerous Propworx auctions over the last couple of years, and while we’ve never been able to get to one of these events to buy stuff for the Major Spoilers Nerd Room of Doom, we’ve always hoped there would be a way for us to participate in some way.  Propworx is answering the call by taking their auction to eBay with a plethora of items from Battlestar Galactica, Iron Man, Starship Troopers, Fantastic Four, Star Wars and more.

Just a sample of the amazing items:
• Stargate Atlantis Gate Room Stargate Segment
• Alien Queen Leg from “Aliens”
• Starship Troopers Hero Morita Rifle
• Master Replicas Star Wars Y-Wing
• Stargate SG-1 Jaffa Warrior Costume
• X-men 2 Jean Grey Maquette
• Iron Man Battle Damaged Mark III Torso Costume

If you want to get in on the action, you better get your stuff together before Sunday, February 27, 2011, ’cause that is when everything ends.

Major Spoilers Poll of the Week (POW!): Team Player Edition

Posted on by

While many of the Polls of the Week have focused on fisticuffs between heroes (or villains), or which franchise is better than the other.  This week, instead of throwing players in a ring and having them duke it out, we’re asking you to sit and think.

Teams and organizations are always trying to grow their membership. In the case of the Jedi and the Green Lantern Corps, membership is limited, but each have their privileges.  We want to know which would you rather be a member of?

VOTE!

Which group would you most want to be a member of?

VIDEO: Awesome Volkswagen/Star Wars Super Bowl commercial is awesome

Posted on by

My son has taken quite a liking to the Star Wars universe and loves putting on his Boba Fett and Storm Trooper helmets and running around the house blasting things… he’s three. I’ve been contemplating getting him a Darth Vader outfit, even though we haven’t broken it to him that Anikin and Vader are one in the same (I think we’ll do it on the same day we tell him Santa isn’t real).

I do know that if we did get him a Darth outfit, he’d be just like this kid in this awesome Volkswagen commercial that is schedule to air during the Super Bowl.

I haven’t seen any other commercials from the big game, but I’m casting my vote on this one as the Best of Show.
