Coolest Female Superhero Costumes Based on Comic Book Characters
In recent years, though, the prevalence of the super-hero in Hollywood has led to more and more costumes being produced that tie into our favorite comics and cartoons, and that means costumes like Sexy Wolverine are now available to purchase.
And belive it or not, they only get more ridiculous from there. That's why today, we picked out 15 of the coolest super-hero female costumes to see how they stack up against the originals that inspired them!
Like a lot of people, I'd always assumed that X-23, the clone of Wolverine, was created to give guys who were confused about their feelings for Wolverine a slightly more acceptable-to-them target to pin their affections on, but the costume department has straight up cut out the middleman on this one. And while I do think those gloves are pretty boss, I'm very disappointed that they didn't include my favorite part of Wolverine's look, the mask that looks exactly like his hair.
But Sexy Bumblebee?! You're going to pick two and only two Transformers, and you use the second slot for Bumblebee? Don't get me wrong, I actually kinda like this one - I can't quite put my finger on why, but it's pretty cute, even though it should totally come with gigantic Volkswagen-hood slippers to tromp around in all night - but aren't there other characters that would make way more sense? At the very least, you'd think we'd be getting Sexy Megatron.
Ah, that's better. I think this one's actually pretty great, and is about as close to accurate as you're likely to get from a store-bought costume. But in the interest of full disclosure, I feel I should point out that Street Fighter II came out right when I was hitting puberty, and I've totally had a thing for comically over-sized spiked bracelets ever since. I make no apologies.
I'm not gonna lie, folks, I love the sexy Cobra Soldier costume. For one thing, and I know this is going to sound crazy, it's got an amazing touch of accuracy, it even includes the straps that hold the dagger on the left leg!
For another, in the G.I. Joe episode "The Viper Is Coming", in which 22 minutes are devoted to setting up a groaner of a joke that was old even for the target audience of impressionable toy-buying youngsters, the team discovers a massive cobra vacation center in which a dance troupe called the Cobra Cuties performs nightly. Sadly, the Cobra Cuties are never brought up again, but if they had been, I like to think that's exactly how they'd look.
Wow, Corey Feldman's looking good these days!
Yes, I know: This has nothing to do with comics. But a sexy version of Elmo is the kind of thing that when you see it, you have to tell someone else, or it'll just sit there in your brain slowly driving you insane as you try to figure out why it exists.
Yeah, that's about right. OK, you could call this one out for going with a skirt rather than the pants, but considering Emma Frost's original costume was a corset, panties, thigh-high boots and a cape, that's not really out of character for her. I'm more concerned about the hair going on there. Has Emma joined a 60s girl group? Actually, that would be awesome.
I'm not trying to brag here, folks, but I've seen Ghostbusters a pretty good amount of times, and I can assure you that I have no memory of this costume appearing in the film. Admittedly, there's a good chance I would've blocked it out had Dan Aykroyd actually squeezed into a push-up top and a pair of booty shorts and ... oh God, now I'm imagining that. MOVE ON!!!
I've got to say, this is actually a pretty dead-on costume for Green Lantern Arisia that, if anything, is actually more modest than its comic-book counterpart, since it lacks the plunging neckline of the original. I wish there was something to make a joke about it, but there isn't. This is a totally accurate costume for anyone who wants to dress up as an underage alien who wanted to get it on with Hal Jordan, and thus used her power ring to give herself a more womanly figure and a sexier outfit, but was later retconned into actually being like 240 years old so that people would stop thinking Hal was such a creep, even though she was still the equivalent of around thirteen at the time. Nothing weird or sketchy about that.
Oh now come on. This alleged Hello Kitty is essentially the Sexy Lady version of the crappy costumes you used to get from the grocery store back when I was growing up, right down to the fact that it's got Hello Kitty's face right where it would be on a plastic smock back in the day. And get real, lady, your bow's on the wrong side.
Once again, this one's billed as being an "Ironette", but since it doesn't look anything at all like Tony Stark's squadron of personal cheerleaders, I'm making a judgment call and saying this is totally meant to be a lady version of Iron Man. And aside from, you know, the fact that's "for women" automatically equals "pleated skirt", that's actually pretty cool.
Yes, I'm aware that they're based on the movie and not the cartoon. Sexy Optimus Prime, in which a robot that can turn into a truck is screenprinted onto a flimsy top in such a way that the windshield (and if you look closely, wipers) are right over the breasts. And that's more or less where any attempt at accuracy both starts and ends. Plus, this thing might as well come with a warning that some dude with the scent of spiked punch on his breath is definitely going to offer you his Rodimus.
You'd think if they were going to make a ladies version of a Robin costume, they would've based it on one actually worn by a female Robin, as seen during Stephanie Brown's extremely brief tenure as Batman's sidekick. Instead, the color scheme and the design of the utility belt give me the idea that it's based more on Robin's look in the Teen Titans cartoon. So if you're looking for a slightly off-model Sexy Robin costume that can double as a slightly off-model Krissy Lynn costume, here you go!
It's a shame, too, because turning the red tunic into a minidress and accessorizing it with green leggings while keeping the same basic deisgn and black/yellow cape that Tim Drake wore is a really nice way of making it distinctly feminine without being "girly". What? You think I spent all these years reading Batman comics and never thought about the fashion?
You know how I know that the costume people didn't actually know what Spider-Girl looked like? Because this is the costume they came up with to represent her. I will admit, though, using May Parker's bigger spider-emblem to make the straps for the top is actually pretty clever. It just happens to be a clever idea on a costume so ridiculous that even the drawing of Spider-Girl up there is shrugging in disbelief.
This costume's actually billed as being "Sexy Black Costume Spider-Girl", but I'm pretty sure whatever branch of Marvel it was that licensed this thing only had the vaguest idea that they did in fact own a character called "Spider-Girl" so I'm calling it as Venom. After all, that gives you an iron-clad defense against allegations of inaccuracy, as the Venom symbiote can look ilke anything! And if I had to wear it, I'd certainly change it to ... well, not a mini-dress. Don't get me wrong, I like the little spider at the hip, I just don't have the legs for it :)

Do It Yourself Coil Gun
Daniel Eindhoven is talented designer who created this cool coil gun. It took around 40 hours to finish this outstanding job. It weights 5 Kg and, capable of delivering over 18J kinetic energy, and speeds up to 110km/h . This weird coil gun has laser pointer for easy aiming and it costs around 100 Euros.It needs 8 seconds to fire a projectile if is connected to power source or 90 seconds with batteries. It is really impressive, I’m not a gun lover but this one is really made with creativity. You may also would like to check this Swiss mini gun, the smallest gun in the world. A coilgun, as the name implies, consists of a coil of wire – an electromagnet – with a ferromagnetic projectile placed at one of its ends. Effectively a coilgun is a solenoid: an electromagnetic coil with the function of drawing a ferromagnetic object through its center. A large current is pulsed through the coil of wire and a strong magnetic field forms, pulling the projectile to the center of the coil. When the projectile nears this point the electromagnet is switched off and the next electromagnet can be switched on, progressively accelerating the projectile down successive stages. In common coilgun designs the “barrel” of the gun is made up of a track that the projectile rides on, with the driver electromagnetic coils around the track. Power is supplied to the electromagnet from some sort of fast discharge storage device, typically a battery or high-capacity high voltage capacitors designed for fast energy discharge. A diode is used to protect polarity sensitive capacitors (such as electrolytics) from damage due to inverse polarity of the current after the discharge.
There are two main types or setups of a coilgun, single stage and multistage. A single stage coilgun uses just one electromagnet to propel a ferromagnetic projectile. A multistage coilgun uses multiple electromagnets in succession to progressively increase the speed of the projectile. Many hobbyists use low-cost rudimentary designs to experiment with coilguns, for example using photoflash capacitors from a disposable camera, or a capacitor from a standard cathode-ray tube television as the energy source, and a low inductance coil to propel the projectile forward. A superconductor coilgun called a quench gun could be created by successively quenching a line of adjacent coaxial superconducting electromagnetic coils forming a gun barrel, generating a wave of magnetic field gradient traveling at any desired speed. A traveling superconducting coil might be made to ride this wave like a surfboard. The device would be a mass driver or linear synchronous motor with the propulsion energy stored directly in the drive coils.
One main obstacle in coilgun design is switching the power through the coils. There are several main options — the simplest (and probably least effective) is the spark gap, which releases the stored energy through the coil when the voltage reaches a certain threshold. A better option is to use solid-state switches; these include IGBTs or power MOSFETs (which can be switched off mid-pulse) and SCRs (which release all stored energy before turning off). A quick-and-dirty method for switching, especially for those using a flash camera for the main components, is to use the flash tube itself as a switch. By wiring it in series with the coil, it can silently and non-destructively (assuming that the energy in the capacitor is kept below the tube’s safe operating limits) allow a large amount of current to pass through to the coil. Like any flash tube, ionizing the gas in the tube with a high voltage triggers it. However, a large amount of the energy will be dissipated as heat and light, and, due to the tube being a spark gap, the tube will stop conducting once the voltage across it drops sufficiently, leaving some charge remaining on the capacitor.
The coil gun first appeared in literature as the “electric gun” in the 1897 science fiction novel A Trip to Venus by John Munro. The novel described in detail a way to launch vehicles into outer space from the Earth’s surface. In the novel, Munro describes in great detail multiple coils fired in sequence by solenoids timed to achieve acceleration without generating g forces that would harm passengers. The gun could be angled on a hillside if desired.

5 Geekiest PC Case Mods - Funny
While most of us plod along with our regular Dells and HP machines, the modders are a different breed altogether. Sometimes come up with obscene specifications for their machines. And at other times, they go ahead and create wacky and weird custom cases. Here are some PC case mods created by people who tread the line between obsession and craziness!
5. TIE Fighter by David Barr
TIE Fighter took the first place on the Science Fiction Case Mod Contest. It is made by David Barry which maybe will blew you away.This one presents two things at the same time, the PC and the desk. Pretty cool and of course enough geek to be on this list.
4. Bender by Jan Erik Vangen
One of the most interesting cases which I ever saw. The interesting thing is that this Bender Case Mode is made by scratch and it took 4-5 months to Jan and his friends. Maybe someone will prefer better case with more details but this one for sure is made with love and a lots of creativity.
3. Kana by Katsuya Matsumura
Many of us can’t imagine these days without anime cartoons, strips or some else. This one is Miss Kanna Higashi PC case mod and it is made by Katsuya Matsumura. It is perfect for all anime lovers. If you want to make something like this one, you will need frame with vinyl chloride pipes and then doing the rest like this builder did.
2. Hulk PC by Chris Blarsky
One of the most famous strip heroes now is also one of the most famous PC case mods. This is Hulk PC case mod created by Chris Blarsky. It is done with a lots of creativity, as you can see wires looks like important part of the shape. I’m asking is it strong inside as Hulk is or it has some medium configuration.
1. R2-D2 by Ken Kirby
Finally, the number one. What would you say about people who likes science fiction movies. Many of you are going to say: Geeks. Well, if you sometimes see the person who is actually Stars Wars fan, and it is also a fan of the famous r2d2 robot from it than I think that you are close.
