If you're tired from regular vacuum cleaners, you might consider getting iRobot vacuum cleaner, and speaking of which, this robotic vacuum cleaner just got a geeky makeover.

At the Super iam8bit art exhibition, artist Kelice Penney has showed her iRobot vacuum cleaner geeky covers, and these covers are designed to represent various video game characters.

Kelice Penney was inspired by characters from Nintendo's video games, and that's how we got Goomba from Super Mario Bros., Octorok from The Legend of Zelda and turtle shells from Super Mario Kart as iRobot covers. These covers look impressive, and it will be perfect if you're a geek and a proud owner of iRobot vacuum cleaner, however, the only sad thing is that these covers won't hit mass production.

Despite the fact that these covers look amazing, you won't be able to purchase them, so the only way to get these geeky covers for your iRobot vacuum cleaner is to make them by yourself.
