Custom Delights: AstroBoy!

June 30, 2008

0

I’m on a total Dacosta high! This man really hits the spot for me. I’ve been on a total AstroBoy craze, spot the iGoogle post, and then he creates this little guy. I love it. And, I especially love that all of his designs always look so clean. Oh Dacosta, I believe this is a [...]

Movies: Wall-E!!!

June 30, 2008

2

Rating: Someone, please stop me! I’ve officially seen Wall-E 3 times this weekend. I had to go to the midnight showing on Thursday, then with friends on Friday and with family today [Saturday]. I’m looking for any excuse to watch it again. I LOVE it. In exception to Cars and maybe Ratatouille, I’m a HUGE [...]

30″ of Robot Killing Goodness!

June 29, 2008

0

Word on the street (the GamaGo blog) is that GamaGo is going to have a GIANT Kill! Deathbot available for sale during SDCC. I own the original 5″ [?] Deathbot and I think he’s okay. My need to own him really had to do with him being a robot and made out of wood, and [...]

Some Joss Whedon to tide you over…

June 26, 2008

1

As you all know, Saki and I are big Joss Whedon fans. If you are like us, then you just can’t wait till Dollhouse hits the air this fall. It seems like we will not have to wait that long for our next Joss hit. He is directing a series for the web called “Doctor [...]

The Treesonism Continues

June 26, 2008

1

It’s official… I must get a full look of Andy’s (x2) sneak peeks of the upcoming Treeson. I have gathered this much… he’ll stand at about 7″ [?] tall and have 5 points of articulation. Check out the images to confirm. He, or she?, is able to sit down… I can’t wait to see what [...]

“Let’s Put a Smile on That Face” Joker Fitted

June 25, 2008

0

In anticipation for this summer’s blockbuster, The Dark Knight, New Era is releasing Dark Knight fitted caps. We’ve seen a couple fitted caps before, and they’ve been way to loud for my taste. This set of caps being released exclusively for the release of The Dark Knight, has actually perked my interest. The colors are [...]

Haven’t gotten your Vivesect Playset yet? Get them now.*

June 24, 2008

The Vivisect blindboxes have been available for a while and to be quite honest, I really love them. The artists that were chosen for this series, and the designs they produced were really different from other blind box series already released. These, to me, seemed much more grown up. Well, their original price was $8.95, [...]

iGoogle: Design Your Own Google?

[Click images for larger view, Danke!] I’m probably a little late at writing this, and people may already know about it, but I still wanted to share. I don’t think Google is a boring place. In fact, it provides me with all my stalking research needs. ^___^ But, I am a huge fan of making [...]

About Those Lazer Cut Scarves

June 24, 2008

0

Well, if you’re in New York like myself, you’re not even thinking about winter yet. Summer is beginning to set in along with the fear that the humidity is coming back with a vengence. But, if you happen to be lucky enough to be in an air conditioned room/home like myself and can think of [...]

Sobbing Ghost Shirt on Threadless

June 23, 2008

0

It’s been a while since I’ve posted anything from Threadless. As of lately their releases are VERY dissapointing and until their sale 2 weeks ago, I hadn’t logged on to my account in over a month! That does remind me, I need to upload lots of photos to get my credit points. Anyway, above is [...]

“Treesonism”

June 22, 2008

1

I’m experiencing an unstoppable smile syndrome right now. I spotted a sneak peek on TRE’s blog this weekend, but after further inspection on Andy Woo’s flickr, I believe Treeson will now have hands?!! He had hands before, but these seem to now have articulation!! It seems the branch on this upcoming CrazyLabel surprise also has [...]

Nintendo World Katamari

June 21, 2008

0

ooOOOH! I believe that was my reaction when I read my theBBPS.com feeds to find a Mario World katamari. You have no idea how much I love Katamari (whichever version/system). And well, I like to believe that everyone’s experienced some form/game produced by Nintendo, if you haven’t, you need to. How cool is the above [...]

We’re one day shy of a week away from the Plushform Show at the Rotofugi Gallery next week, and some friends are beginning to post their sneak peeks. Above is Dacosta’s currently untitled sneak peek. Clearly, he’s a sumo wrestler. Right?!! I’m excited to see photos of his lower half. Hit the jump to see [...]

Kubrick Ghostbusters Coming Soon!

June 21, 2008

Over at this year’s Tokyo Toy Fair, Medicom showed off the new Ghostbusters Kubricks. They are pretty amazing looking– though, this is coming from really big Ghostbusters fan. No release date as of yet. I just hope they get sold as a pack and not as a blind box. When I get more info I [...]

I wish I could go to all the Cons.I hate missing out on exclusives posibilities, but it’s much harder to keep up when Cons are outside the US. Currently, there’s LOADS of stuff being released for the Taipei Toy Fair, which now includes the Molly bearbrick above. I joined the Molly fan club really late, [...]
