What to make for my fiance?

His birthday is next week, we've been friends for 12 years, lived together 1 year. He's a geek, plays x box 360, loves Legend of Zelda(has the triforce tattooed on his wrist), Marvel&DC comics, music, movies, zombies, photography, turtles.....Ok, I'll stop there, as I could go on and on!!
Here's what I've already made: I handpainted a card for him, with the triforce, 1up mushrooms, and extra life hearts on it. I made a green pouch with the triforce on it, for his new mp3 player.
What I'm thinking about making is either the 1up mushroom cupcakes, or the Green Lantern cake.
I need some ideas!!! I'm cashless, and stuck out in the middle of nowhere(way away from a store), but I have my craft supplies. I have felt, embroidery floss, glass and stone chip beads of various sizes and shapes, key chain findings, fabric, yarn(I can barely knit, though), paint, denim scraps.

HELP!!

Does he smoke?maybe you could sew him a cigarette holder.Or embroider him a patch on some denim and he can pick out on what clothes he wants them to sew it. Maybe embroider something like this(I found it on Craftster):

Haha! Nora, I am planning on making the playing cards book for him for Valentine's day! It is a really cool project.
Violetta, I love that shirt!! I could probably paint that on something...No, he doesn't smoke, but thanks for the idea! I'm getting some inspiration, guys, thanks!
I tend to think of my the way my mind works as a hamster in a wheel. The other night, when I posted this, my hamster wanted to run in the wheel, but was way too tired! LOL, I know, I'm crazy.
Hey, I'll post the stuff I make him, after I get it all done! Thanks for the help!!
