Just what you want to see when you're doing the shopping at the Mall of the Emirates in Dubai &mdash three badass Steampunk nasties in the Al Jabber art gallery. Gallery below.
Er, shouldn't that be the Al Jabba gallery? [Hombre Lobo via Boing Boing]

When I go to Dubai, I make a point to drag visiting friends past the sculptures.
The artist also has a Predator sculpture at the store. And to call it a "gallery" is a bit of a stretch, more like an "Odds 'n Ends" store filled with trash and trinkets for gifts.
So should I touch it or not? I don't think they made that clear enough
A mall in Dubai?? I bet it cost 2 million euros and two blonde 19 year old virgins, one of them has to have freckles in her face and in the breasts then other has to look like an older Sarah Michelle Gellar... at least that expensive...
@VakeroRokero: They can have the real Sarah Michelle Gellar, and I don't expect anything in return.
@Azndude51: Why don't you get it? After all, they said PLS.
Awesome, though I don't think it really falls under steampunk.
more like steamjunk.
any and all random "found-art" pieces are not necessarily steampunk.
I'd really like to see this stormtrooper do "I'm A Little Teapot".
I'm pretty sure that's Jango Fett, not Boba.
Not Steampunk.
@Azndude51: Yeah, the UPC codes on their faces and the "PLS DONT Touch" signs make them just a little less intimidating.
@Cyberziggy: Awesome! I was thinking that too...
You Giz guys need to get out more. this kind of "metal art" has been rampant in thailand for ever. i even saw a life size darth vader done this way in downtown los angeles.
