This season, deck the halls in geekery. Here are some holiday decorations that pay tribute to your favorite TV shows, movies, and other geeky interests.

1. LEGO BRICK WREATH; $20

Sure, you could get a real wreath, but it'll die by the end of the season and you'll need to buy a new one next year. Instead, get something that will last years and give you a chance for a little personalization. This plastic wreath from ThinkGeek lets you build your own designs using toy bricks from brands like LEGO, PixelBlocks, K'Nex, and more. The kit starts with a green base, a red bow, and "greenery," and then you can build from there.

2. TARDIS STRING LIGHTS; $28

No tree is complete without the right set of lights. This Doctor Who-inspired string of lights features 10 plastic, glowing TARDIS bulbs. (We imagine the lights are much bigger on the inside.)

3. GAME OF THRONES STOCKING; $14

Leave this stocking up, and you're sure to get some pretty good loot—especially if you have a Lannister coming to visit. The 19-inch polyester stocking is officially licensed and sports the sigils of the Houses Targaryen, Baratheon, Stark, Tyrell, Greyjoy, Lannister, and Baratheon of Dragonstone.

Set the right mood with a candlelight dinner courtesy of Darth Vader. The solid metal candlestick is modeled to look just like the Sith Lord's lightsaber. It even comes with three bright red candles to further sell the look.

5. AT-AT LAWN ORNAMENT; $30

While your neighbors across the street are setting up their inflatable Santa, you can go a more unconventional route. This fallen AT-AT Walker will look right at home amongst the snow on your front lawn. The 15-inch-long lawn ornament is made of resin and will remind passersby of the Battle of Hoth.

Adventure Time

might be coming to a close soon, but that doesn't mean you can't still celebrate all the lovable characters from the cartoon series. This Beemo ornament is ready for the holidays with a Santa hat and a mound of glittery snow.

8. DEATH STAR TREE TOPPER; $100

Ditch the star this year and go for the Death Star. Unlike your run-of-the-mill plastic toppers, this impressive sphere commands the attention of the room with flashing lights and music. With a remote control, you can make your villainous space station glow red or blue, and play the Imperial March or Star Wars theme. The six-and-a-half-inch sphere sits comfortably on most trees and runs on batteries.

This 15-inch miniature tree set boasts a healthy set of blue branches that are decked out in silver garland. It comes with 12 decorated baubles and six plain baubles to get the collection started.
