Fancy a monster sound system?
Who would buy this? A geeky musical festival, a well funded LARP, or perhaps computer games company throwing a party? [I neeeeeeed] Etsy retailer “HandPaintedGarments” describe this as “big, green and unique”. I’d say they’re right.

Boba does Borderlands; R2 is Claptrap
This excellent mashup is the work of French artist Max Fradet. I think he captures all four characters wonderfully. You can tell at a glance you’ll looking at Boba Fett and R2-D2. You also know you’re looking into Borderlands and at Claptrap too. It’s well worth checking out his Deviant Art profile.
Cats love to be fed to Chain Chomps
Chain Chomps are common enemies from Mario. They first appeared in Super Mario Bros. 3 and, as it turns out, cats love to crawl inside their gaping mouths and snuggle down. Okay, this particular Chain Chomp isn’t your traditional Mario enemy. This Chain Chomp is a custom made bed by Catastrophic Creations. Oh yes, Catastrophic […]
