Am I too old to still get excited about stuff like this? Probably, but a healthy acceptance of such things is one of the many perks of working for a site with a tagline like "a gadget guide by geeks, for geeks." Thankfully, there are folks out there who are even bigger geeks, who also know their way around a tool shed a bit more than yours truly.
Andy Woerner is one such person, and thanks to a happy combination of the above traits, and ample free time, he's just unveiled a 21-foot working replica of a Star Wars X-Wing. This thing is powered by four-rockets and actually flies. In fact, he's going to prove it out in California, next week.
The force is indeed strong with this one.
