Feb 23 2009Beats From The Dark Side: AT-AT Boombox
I have no more information on this thing except it looks like a functional boombox in the form factor of an AT-AT. Really makes me want to throw down a piece of cardboard and break. That's breakdance for those of you not in the know. Uh, wicka-pow! You see that move? That was fresh, was it not? So fresh. And these beats -- it's like they were harvested from the beat-bush this morning. Quick, somebody drop one for me!
My name is Geekologie and I am full of knowledge-yI drop the learnin' like a hookers box the burnin'
Actually, I'm feeling a little burny myself right now
Hold that beat while I find my ointment.
I know, I am the freshest. Seriously, check my expiration date. Haha, that's right -- I don't have one! I scratched it out with a car key because I expired a week ago. I'm getting rancid. Quick, drink me anyways! You puked didn't you? Haha, told you I was rancid. Now one more sip. DO IT!
Hit the jump for a bunch of closeups of the awesomeness.

Thanks to Tank, who has destroyed many an AT-AT with his massive cannon. PEW PEW! And Doverish, who salvaged the scrap metal.

I have no issue communicating without the use of profanity. Quite frankly, the english language offers much more colorful adjectives. The point being made is simply that in this country, where this blog is hosted, we have freedom of speech. The same freedom of speech that would protect this blogger (GW) in court. I find it rather disingenuous of him to post NSFW content and genitalia jokes, then censor our comments about them.

This is pretty badass. Or at least it would've been badass in 1986... Now it's just ok.

19. Han Solo - February 23, 2009 4:12 PM
If I had one of these I'd sneak up on a sleeping ewok with it and blast the Emperor's Theme at 3:30AM.

@5: Actually, I think it's exactly what meets the eye.
All I can visualize with this is Herbie Hancock's "Rockit" video, seeing the AT-AT kickin' it with all those sexy mannequin parts...

FAKE!!!!
This is a complete photoshop job. You can tell its a fake because the shadow's are all wrong.
This is exactly like that scene in the movie NEver BAck down where MA found a load of drugs in the trunk of a car he stole. When the cops stopped by to hassle him, he quickly threw the drugs back in the trunk, but noticed some dropped on the floor. He smartly started the car to let the exhaust blow the drugs away.

I will build this.
This will be built.
24. Calvin - February 23, 2009 10:13 PM
God damn, Geekologie is once again scraping the bottom of the barrel for shit to post. I remember thinking this mod was cool like 4 years ago.
