Bub and Bob from Bubble Bobble.

I've found that bead sprites make awesome coasters.

(Skel-monsta was done by Quinn, not me)

48 470ohm resistors soldered together into a Borg cube.

Resistance is futile! hahahahahahahahohgodkillme.

This is kinda like the next level of this.

(for the nerds, the equivalent resistance corner-to-corner is 606 ohms)

Tying this knot is easy. Simply follow the instructions, tie the knot, then spend 45 minutes fussing with it to get it to look "right".

Seeing as I've spent over an hour and a half on this and still have a long way to go, I'm going to just count this as my thing for today and finish it tomorrow. It's got ping-pong balls, LED's and a bunch of wires.
