Get Your Very Own Sarahnator!

Tuesday, September 9th, 2008

Following in the footsteps of other Republicans, John McCain running mate Sarah Palin has her own action figure. Pictured above is the hotter of the two, the “Sarahnator” which comes dressed in a tomb raider outfit and is equipped with a leg holstered .45 handgun. This obviously will further perpetuate Palin as the current holder to the title of PILF.

You can purchase your very own Sara Palin Action Figure at SarahPalinActionFigure.com.

Mad Scientist Showdown – Doctor Steel Vs. Dr. Horrible!

Thursday, July 17th, 2008

I have to be honest, I knew it would eventually come to this. Doctor Steel, a mad scientist who has been steadily making grounds for world domination through his toys and music, is now fully aware of Joss Whedon’s newest creation – Dr. Horrible, another mad scientist who has just begun his quest for world domination through just his music. And I think it’s safe to say that the rubber gloves have been thrown.

Doctor Steel fans, err I mean ‘troops’, have rallied behind their master for a full-on assault upon Whedon and his Dr. Horrible with Operation: Expose Dr. Horrible, a cunning plan that involves the ‘education’ of the Internet masses. They point out all of the similarities between these two diabolical Doctors beyond the whole singing and rubber gloves, such as:

Both use propaganda tools to spread their plans for world domination.
Both have a Q&A segment (“Ask Dr. Horrible” and “Ask Doctor Steel”).
Both have similar titles to their respective releases (Dr. Horrible’s “Sing-Along Blog” videos and Doctor Steel’s “Read-A-Long” album).

Joss, we like you and all so we’ll be kind enough to tell you this; Doctor Steel’s fans are like your fans – rabid, undyingly loyal and willing to do just about anything for their lord and master. Be ready.

And to give you a taste of what you’re up against Mr. Whedon , here’s one of Doctor Steels propaganda videos. Good luck.

It’s Slime Puppy!

Thursday, June 19th, 2008

What’s fun for the whole family? Why it’s the puppy that is filled with slime – “Biri Biri Kaze Hiki Wanko,” (“shocking sick puppy”), the dog filled with snot and vomit, that’s what!
Biri Biri Kaze Hiki Wanko
This fun-filled little game is being released by Bandai subsidiary Mega House which will commemorate the thirtieth anniversary of toy slime… with a toy pooch that’s vomiting. Ain’t it just keen?

The name of the game is similar to Milton Bradley’s Operation, but instead of non-gore-filled inner-body parts you have to deal with green slime:

“the toy puppy, who has caught a cold, drools a concoction of slime and plastic germs. Players must extract these germs using the tweezers without letting the metal part touch the slime, an act which produces a buzzing shock. The player who collects the most germs wins. Play continues by loading the mess into a compartment in the dog’s head.”

Someone out there order us up one stat!

Eddie Izzard’s Star Wars Bit Done In LEGOs

Friday, April 18th, 2008

In keeping with the somewhat LEGO theme today, we give you a clever use of LEGOS, Eddie Izzard and Star Wars. Somewhat NSFW due to the use of the f-bomb here and there, so put on your headphones.

 


Star Wars Steampunk, Part The ‘nth

Friday, April 11th, 2008

Steampunk VaderWe know, we know – you’re just about sick and tired with Steampunk, let alone all the Star Wars themed stuff. But you know what? We ain’t! And the badassery you see here is why. Just look at this modded Darth Vader! He’s just one of a full cast of Star Wars characters that modder extraordinaire Sillof has just unveiled.

Thus far he’s got C-3P0, R2-D2, Luke, Han, Chewbacca, Obi-Wan, Leia, a Stormtrooper, Vader and even Gran Moff Tarkin. Nerdtastic!

Anyone who wants to make our day can see fit to obtain these for us. We will think of you highly and you will move up in the ranks of our cult of personality.

Bite My Shiny Lego Ass!

Lego BenderSee the image to the left here boys and girls? It’s just what you think it is – a LEGO Bender! Alas though, it’s scratch-built and not available from the fine Danish company. I must admit that I let out a but of a squee when I initially thought that this would be an official release from LEGO. Yeah, I’m that kind of fanboy for the TV series. Pepa Quin, a mad-skilled LEGO builder, decided to take it upon himself to create the entire crew, the Planet Express headquarters and ship, and even a Slurm billboard, all from Futurama. There’s a slew of images of his creations here.
