OMG! A miniature GLaDOS – to wear in my HAIR!

Posted on by
GLaDOS model

It was my birthday this week and I’m sure you’ll agree that I received the most curious and wonderful thing – a miniature, hand-crafted GLaDOS model FOR MY HAIR! This is awesome for a variety of reasons:

Firstly, I always wear shit in my hair, like every day. Normally it’s flowers, but I have an array of hair accessories that I like to sport from time to time. This collection can only be improved by additional geekery. Secondly, it’s crazy detailed. It has little pipes and panels and logos etc, which are all amazing and adorable. Thirdly, someone spent a long time making this especially for me, which is freakin’ cool.

Anyway, the mad model skillz come from the hands of the fabulous Luke Walker. He does bitchin’ illustrations too, so go check out his Tumblr. If you think you want something crafted/drawn/imagined too, drop him an email  (lukejasonwalkeratgmaildotcom)   and he may well hook you up.

Hey guys, did I mention I have a tiny, awesome GLaDOS accessory?! Who wouldn’t want a passive-aggressive, corrupt, murderous robot in their hair, right? Check her out…

EDIT: With all the attention this post has been getting I thought I’d email Gabe Newell about little GLaDOS on the off chance that he’d care, and he did actually email me back! The official Valve verdict? “Pretty awesome“. I don’t really think I could have asked for better. Huzzah!

EDIT 2: It gets better! Valve sent me stuff!

Yaaaaay!

Do feel free to share the photos by the way, but please don’t remove the credit, as that would do Mr Walker no justice at all. And that’s just not cricket.

  5. I actually can’t think of any computer game hair accessory that would be as cool as this. I mean, I could wear my Sackboy in my hair but that would just be weak. What else could be this cool? #seriousquestionyouguys

  9. Hi there, was directed here by Kotaku. I’m getting married in about a year and a half, and we decided on a Portal theme. My fiance was interested in having Glados in her hair, any way that we could possibly acquire one of these masterpieces?

    • GLaDOS is on a kind of crocodile clip, it’s attached underneath but it wasn’t on there when we took the close up photos.
      She is pretty heavy actually. I think I will have to style my hair specifically to wear her! That’s not really a big problem though. :)
