It's Easter time, which means it's time for bunnies, pastel and eggs with aliens and Bond villains on them. Check out these amazingly detailed eggs by artist Barak Hardley.

"Guardians" Star-Lord, Gamora, Drax, Groot and Rocket; video game character Q*bert; Skeletor; Urkel from "Family Matters"; Leeloo from "The Fifth Element"; Beetlejuice; Mr. T; Mister Rogers; Jaws (both the shark and the James Bond villain); "MythBusters" hosts Adam and Jamie; Spock; Mork, and Strong Bad get their own intricate egg representations.

But that's not all. Characters from "Powerpuff Girls," "Power Rangers," "Battle of the Planets," "House of Cards," "The Warriors," "Saturday Night Live," "Minions," "Star Wars" and "The Muppets," just to name a few, also get eggy versions of themselves. Even rock stars like Taylor Swift and David Bowie, aka Ziggy Stardust complete with his signature lightening bolt face paint, get their own eggs.

You can see the eggs in all their geeky glory in this video from AWE Me Channel. Be sure to check out videos of Hardley'segg designs from 20142013 and 2012 as well. They're sure to crack you up.
