The Princess Bride: Rodents of Unusal Size plush

April 18, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Think Geek avoided releasing this Rodent of Unusual Size plush in early April in case it looked like an Arpil Fools’ Joke. Do you remember the three dangers of the fire swamp? There are the flame spurts, the lightning sands and the dreaded Rodents of Unusual Size. These plush rodents are 27″ from their nose […]

Wizards without Coats: Foreclosure

April 17, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Wizards of the Coast dates back to 2009, and even then, the economy was dire.   < PreviousWizards without Coats Next >  I did manage to get the round table M’lord… Oh dear. Everyone’s suffering in times of austerity. Poor Camelot. The last thing the castle needs is to vanish to magical foreclosure.

GM Inspiration: Those sneaky weredog-werewolves

April 17, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Quite some picture. I wonder if the owner knows that the friendly looking dog is actually either a werewolf or some sort of canine shadow demon? Perhaps the owner is actually a demonologist and the very woman responsible for summoning the creature. Via /r/pics.

April 16, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

How’s this for a wedding cake? We have the Skyrim groom fighting a dragon while the bride uses a lazer rifle to take on a giant robot insect monster. Let’s just go ahead and call this a geeky wedding! Who made this wonderful thing? Mikes Amazing Cakes did.

Breathtaking Game of Thrones art from Dejan Delic

April 15, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I’m blown away by Serbian artist Dejan Delic. The following pictures come from his A Song of Ice and Fire gallery and show a few of the popular characters from early on in the series. No spoilers, just fantastic illustrations. Robb Stark Cersei Lannister Tyrion Lannister The Hound and The Little Bird Arya and Jaquen […]

LARP costumes for the sexiest, bravest, elf warriors

April 15, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Mittelalter is a German store that sells medieval clothing, fantasy and LARP costumes. They specialise in leather armour and creating feelings of insecurity. Okay, the insecurity may not be intentional but Mittelalter create tiny pieces of leather armour, designed for the body beautiful and the brave. It’s hard to judge what the AC for these […]

The sexist superhero t-shirt debate

April 15, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Geek Native’s collection of fully dressed superheroines, wonderfully drawn by Michael Lee Lunsford, helped spark an intersting debate. Is there sexism in today’s comic book culture? I feel that the weekend’s debate over these two t-shirts is a natural round two. The concern is this; the blue t-shirt for boys tells them they can be […]

Here’s a way to avoid that last minute rush to find a Halloween costume and avoid paying a penny for it. Why not simply win some Minecraft costume loot? Here’s your chance to win a Minecraft pickaxe and a Creeper head. Not sure which is my favourite; the Creeper head is a great costume because […]
