Soot sprite pillow!

July 31, 2014 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Do you remember the cute soot sprites from the beginning of My Neighbour Totoro? Super cute, right? Etsy store Molapila has transformed them into big fluffy pillows. That’s great but they don’t have many left! [I need this!] [Stop showing me these until I get them ALL!]

Texts from Kobold

July 31, 2014 by Andrew Girdwood 7 Comments

Imagine the scene. An evil wizard is just trying to stock his tower with suitable monsters and minions. As the evil wizard manual says you start with the weak minions first, by the entrance, and then add progressively more powerful beasts. Our wizard puts a single kobold in the first room by the door. He’s […]

Weirdest Boba Fett inspired doll

July 31, 2014 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

You know Boba Fett inspires some pretty weird fandoms, right? People just love Star Wars’ bounty hunter. This 12″ tall figure from Fools Paradise is weird and a little NSFW. You can pre-order this hand painted and handcrafted resin model from Fools Paradise for only $239. Boba Keiko isn’t even the oddest model the site […]

July 31, 2014 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Hugo Award nominated Julie Dillon has turned to Kickstart the first in a series of art books. Dillon’s much admired for her style.

Doctor Who: BBC America releases “Deep Breath” promo pictures

Deep Breath is the first episode of the new Doctor Who. BBC America have released some promo pictures for it – and it’s the old gang with a new face. There’s Jenna Coleman as Clara, Neve McIntosh as Madame Vastra and, of course, Peter Capaldi as The Doctor. What do you think? Too early to […]

San Diego Comic Con cosplay music video

July 31, 2014 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Warning: Contains Samuel L. Jackson cosplay inspired swearing. Aggressive Comix went to San Diego Comic Con and put together this cosplay music video. I’m reminded of the old cosplay videos. These days the videos we tend to see first have been put together by teams the cosplayers know and that allows for picture perfect poses, […]

How long did each Doctor regeneration live for?

July 30, 2014 by Andrew Girdwood 9 Comments

This infographic uses the minutes of screen time each Doctor regeneration appeared for to calculate a timeline. Special shows like Christmas and Anniversary episodes counted for one hour. We can see that the 1st Doctor did pretty well but it was Tom Baker as the 4th who has, by some distance, the longest screen time. […]

The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies trailer

July 28, 2014 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

It’s been a great few days for trailers. Here’s another and it is all the way from Middle Earth. Thorin wrestles with friendship, honour and great big piles of loot while Sauron smuggles hordes of orcs over to the Lonely Mountain. If you’ve not see Lord of the Rings then just assume it all works […]
