It’s Almost October 21, Time to Get Back to the Future

flux1We’re almost to that spot in the future where Marty McFly meets his future self. It’s time to get your nostalgia on in a way that’s practical. Time travel itself – probably out of our reach for a while if not forever… but you can still have a functioning flux capacitor. This realistic replica helps you charge your gadgets that make the famed flux capacitor look pretty primitive in comparison. You can get one of these things you know you’ve secretly wanted ever since you’ve seen Back to the Future, for just $34 from Amazon.

October 21, 2015 is just around the corner. Get ready for the arrival of Marty McFly and Doc Brown – just make sure you’re able to get your DeLorean to 88 mph!

Star Wars Stormtrooper Bluetooth Speaker Lets You Rock Your Tiny Corner of the Death Star

By on July 15, 2015 in audio, bluetooth, gadgets, general geekery, gifts, star wars

stroop1Star Wars fans can get their geek audio on via the Force with this small, yet powerful Bluetooth speaker that takes the form of a Stormtrooper’s head mask. The 5-watt speaker has a chargeable lithium battery inside and comes with a USB charging cord.

The trooper comes with an indicator light as well.

The Ewoks on Endor are still harvesting the masks off the defeated stormtroopers – but they are due for release by October – just in time for Chanukah and Christmas gifts for your favorite fanboy or fangirl.

He may be a little short for a Stormtrooper, but he makes it easy to listen to your tunes or podcasts with far more umph than the speakers built-in to your smartphone.

You can pre-order these babies from The Fowndry. You can follow The Fowndry on Twitter, Facebook, Google+, Pinterest and Tumblr.
