Comments on this: none yet. Add your own.  While ScottC presented this as a way to dress your kid up as a baby Cthulhu, unfortunately they only come in pink and blue. Surely there would be a way to dye the thing a dark, brackish green, yes? If so, then you would truly have a Great Young One on your hands. Then you hand the kid a baby bottle that says SOULS on the outside. See? Instant costume to disturb your in-laws with. I would like to go ahead and say this now: if you have a kid and you dress him (or her!) as something twisted, I want pictures. Send them and I'll post them as part of our usual Halloween mayhem.

Comments on this: none yet. Add your own. I swear to Buddha, WETA is going to drive geeks to a life of crime. When we first mentioned these gorgeous works of art, we were bracing ourselves for a massive price tag. But $690? Oh, you vicious bastards, if only they didn't look like they were worth it--that's the truly lethal part of all this. Check out this informercial: And if that wasn't bad enough, there's a fourth gun on the horizon: the Victorious Mongoose 1902a. We can only hope that the upcoming book from Dark Horse will be more up our financial alley. Curses! Categorized as: Gear

So while I was checking around the StudioBo site for this post on Colors Are Overrated, I couldn't help but notice these delightfully sick ceramic bowls, designed to show a ship and a plane in a position of distress, having crashed into your soup. If you had a bowlful of Siege's chili there, you would know that all the little people would have been dead instantly. Categorized as: Art and Gear

Comments on this: none yet. Add your own.  The folks at Cephalopodcast have figured out a way to let people know that the mic is on and could they please go the hell away because you're recording a podcast: an "On Air" sign for your iPod. Just follow his instructions and you won't have to write it on a sticky and place it on your forehead like our friend, Bernard Black. And once that's done, take some masking tape, make "walls" around your desk and bitch at people when they refuse to come through the "door" like a proper person. Categorized as: Gear

Comments on this: none yet. Add your own.  Neatorama points us to some kickass antique (some real, some reproductions) phones for sale at Distinctive Telephones. We call them Miriam's Dead phones, as a nod to a Dylan Moran routine. But basically all you need to know is that they could only be used in hand to hand combat by a large ogre, since they're so freaking heavy. Slamming the receiver down, though, is not only satisfying but a good upper body workout. Categorized as: Gear
