So your Star Wars collection has grown too large, and now needs its own room in your home. It happens. Well, if you’re going to have a room themed to the galaxy far, far away, might as well Star Wars-ize every part of it. Yes, even the furniture itself. The folks at Backyard Resin have created a series of high-end tables showcasing Star Wars elements, and they are each a true work of art. Three of them prominently feature the Millennium Falcon in action, but one pays homage to the Jedi’s greatest weapon. You can check out each item down below:
Star Wars – Millennium Falcon End Table and Coffee Table
The first Backyard Resin table features the Falcon and a rebel X-Wing fighter, pursued by TIE fighters through space. This beautiful dark walnut Star Wars end table starts at $1,140.00 for the 24″ x 24″ version, and there are four other larger coffee table sizes to choose from at varying prices.
Walnut Star Wars – Millennium Falcon Cutting Board
If the table costs too many Imperial credits for your comfort, then this cutting board is a more economical alternative. Like the table above, it showcases the Millennium Falcon, an X-Wing, and an Imperial TIE fighter flying through space. Perfect for the scoundrel-infested cantina (or kitchen) in your home. This 12” x 24” dark walnut Star Wars cutting board will set you back $414.00.
Ocean Star Wars Coffee Table
The next dark walnut coffee table features the Falcon, an X-Wing, and a TIE fighter skimming the surface of the ocean. This recreated a scene very similar to one in The Force Awakens. Similar to the previous tables, this one starts at $1,140.00 for the 24″ x 24″ end table version. The four other larger sizes have varying prices.
Star Wars Lightsaber Coffee Table
The final Star Wars table, our personal favorite, features the most elegant weapon in the galaxy, the lightsaber. This stunning piece features a meticulously airbrushed blade and a 3D-printed lightsaber handle embedded in the table. You can choose between two colors for your blade — Luke Skywalker’s green, or Darth Vader’s Sith red. The 24″ x 24″ end table costs $1,140.00, with the larger coffee tables priced higher.

Travis Hunter has got everybody talking—again.
And no, no, no — not for the reasons you’re thinking. In what has already been a history-making year for the Heisman Trophy-winning athlete, Hunter officially signed with Lil Wayne’s Young Money APAA Sports agency. What better match than one between one of football’s brightest young stars and one of hip-hop’s most iconic figures?
Hunter’s decision comes as he prepares for the NFL Draft after an unforgettable season with the Colorado Buffaloes. The two-way standout dominated both offense and defense under the guidance of Coach Deion Sanders, first at Jackson State and later at Colorado. Quickly rising in popularity due to his skills, versatility, and undeniable presence, he’s already positioned him as one of the most anticipated prospects in football.
The connection between Hunter and Lil Wayne runs deep, as the athlete revealed during his Heisman Trophy acceptance speech. He credited his fiancée for introducing him to Wayne’s music, which became his go-to pregame soundtrack. “My fiancée loves you,” Hunter said during the ceremony. “From that day on, that’s all I listen to for pregame music.”
Lil Wayne’s Young Money APAA Sports agency has been steadily building its reputation in the sports world, representing a diverse roster of athletes including Duke’s Darian Mensah and Colorado’s Jehiem Oatis. With Wayne at the helm, the agency has made waves by combining a deep understanding of culture with a commitment to empowering athletes on and off the field. Signing Hunter marks a significant milestone for Young Money Sports, solidifying its position as a major player in the competitive world of athlete representation.
Hunter’s star power extends beyond the field. He recently signed a lucrative endorsement deal with Adidas, further cementing his status as a marketable and influential athlete. “Working with adidas is a special opportunity for me and something that I’m really excited about as I look ahead to what’s next,” Travis Hunter said at the time. “The partners they currently have are top tier with some of the best young guys like me. I’m pumped to join the three stripes as we continue pushing the boundaries of the sport we all love.”
The partnership with Young Money Sports signals his intention to expand his brand while staying true to his roots and values. For an athlete of his caliber, the synergy between football, culture, and business is key—and Young Money APAA Sports is uniquely positioned to help him do just that.

It’s no secret that we are big John Wick fans at Nerdist. The ongoing bloody adventures of the very stylish yet also scary Baba Yaga bring us into a world that we wouldn’t mind being a part of. Keanu Reeves is one of the best action heroes ever as John Wick, so much so that he should have a zillion figures in his honor. And yes, that includes this very adorable yet gruff John Wick duck by Tubbz.
This duck has all the trademarks of John Wick, from its black suit to its goatee to that glorious hair that Keanu rocks so well. And, just for extra giggles, he’s sporting a few drops of blood on his face and a scowl as he wields a gun.
Here’s the official description of the John Wick duck from Tubbz:
The duck you were yesterday should never be the duck you are today! John Wick has hit the big time as he becomes a cosplaying TUBBZ collectible. It’s been a rough day in the pond. He’s splattered with blood, wielding his pistol, but still his hair looks good and suit is sharp!
This official First Edition John Wick TUBBZ collectible is part of the TUBBZ range, a highly collectible series of your favourite gaming, movie, TV show and pop culture characters in duck form!
Sadly, this version is sold out but the description suggests there will be more to order in the near future.
