[Twitter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/twitter-3d-gadget) could be considered nerdy in itself, but these geeky Twitter icons by Adam Koford take some pretty gloriously interesting twists -- like Yoda instead of the blue bird.

Other geeky Twitter icon replacements include Wolverine, Zelda, Chewbacca, Harry Potter, Mario, Boba Fett's Slave I, Cthulu, MST3K and Galactus and Silver Surfer.

I'd love to see Adam Koford's interpretation of a geeked out fail whale!

**Implications** - Logos, especially those belonging to major corporations like [Google](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chrome-dino), [Pepsi](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shaq-attaq-2) and Twitter, are iconic figures recognized by the masses. Products and artworks that recreate or interpret these recognized logos in either a humorous and culturally relevant manner will attract the attention of potential consumers across the globe who are bonded together through the recognition of internationally consistent logos.
