November 12, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/513277403/alien-vs-predator-the-miniatures-game/ [Back this Campaign] When I first heard there was an Alien vs Predator board game on Kickstarter my very first thought was; “How did they get permission?” I asked about the pitch video and was answered with a shrug and a comment about there not really being a pitch video of note. I had […]

Sinister Attack on Titan t-shirt

November 12, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I think Qwertee have nailed the look and feel of Attack on Titan with this t-shirt design. Called “Protect the Wall” it gets the grim feel of the Titans, a theme the anime cycles back to frequently, as well as the determination of the defenders. What do you think? Is this something you’d wear?

November 11, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This wonderful and horrible dalek cake is the work of Bleeding Heart Bakery in Chicago. It took their team more than 12 hours to make. With talent like that you would think they are rocking it? Sadly not, according to reports the bakery closed in 2012. Let their awful and delightful creations live on in […]

The LEGO Super Mario Mushroom the size of a pumpkin

November 11, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This LEGO Mushroom design was put together by Dirk VH. The resulting build uses thousands of bricks but only a few shapes. The final mushroom is about the size of a pumpkin. The time-lapse video keeps track of the bricks while sharing some Mario ‘shroom factoids. I think it’s worth a watch.
