12.01.06 by Widge @ 2:21 am  Plot points for Pixar's upcoming Toy Story 3 have finally come to light. Although previous rumors have stated that the script would involve our heroes, Buzz and Woody, finally going to the equivalent of a toy paradise, recent script drafts have revealed that post-Disney deal the story is taking a decidedly different turn. "We're all huge fans of Godfather 3 here at Pixar," a spokesperson said. "So just as that trilogy showed the unraveling of an empire, our third film will show what happens when the toys become bloated with their own Hollywood success and overconsume." Categorized as: Gear

And when you get all that assembled you can celebrate Halloween by roasting marshmallows over the burning copies of Ghostbusters 2 on the grill in your backyard. Categorized as: Gear

10.09.06 by Widge @ 7:16 am  This is kinda cool: it's a how-to for creating a Han Solo frozen in carbonite with a side of queso. As the creator mentions, you can do whatever...I think you should have a set of them: one for queso, one for the vegetable tray, and one for the cucumber sandwiches. Or even better, you could do a variation on this that's a salsa dish where the salsa is served out of the mouth of one of the faces on Kirby's Source Wall. Now we're talking a party, people!

08.26.06 by Widge @ 7:01 am  WETA Originals has launched a line of antique prop rayguns that could very easily be the wet dream of anyone who loves pulp sci-fi. That one we've got pictured is the Manmelter 3600ZX Sub-Atomic Disintegrator Pistol. All three are truly badass, and the site they've launched to promote this new line is worth checking out just for the humor involved. Sadly, no word yet on prices (I'll bet it's around the worth of a human kidney or something) or a release date. So start making out your Xmas list now. Categorized as: Gear

06.25.06 by Dindrane @ 9:36 pm  Ever wanted your very own flamingo to hold those loose pages securely in a book? A hippo to slingshot at your annoying officemates? Or just a rhino to chew on when things get tough? Well now you can have all three and more with Kawaii Corner's Silicone Zoo Rubber Bands. Safe down to 40 below zero and up to almost 400, these animal-shaped rubberbands can be stretched, used, and stretched again, but will still return to their friendly, animalistic shapes. You know you want them! Just be sure to read the Very Important Rules for long animal life, especially #9. While you're there, check around for all kinds of other stuff to buy me. Um, I mean, to buy for yourself. Yeah. Especially Batz Maru, because "you" really, really like him. Categorized as: Gear

09.30.05 by Widge @ 3:38 pm  Okay, this is really getting out of hand. First we have a black iPod. Then we have a black Sidekick. Now...black toilet paper? For God's sake, stop making everything black just because you think that folks like me will buy it. Because...you're...you're right. And it's exploitative. And I'm weak. Because I want to try this stuff. You big bullies. *sniff* God forgive me. Categorized as: Gear
