04.17.07 by Widge @ 9:57 am  This nice young man is sporting the headgear of Bunnyhead, one of the Li'l Cenobites, an attempt by Clive Barker to break into the kids show biz. Pilot script is reported to have the tag line of "They'll tear your room apart." Also, in this version, the Lament Configuration is actually a jigsaw puzzle that forms a picture of an Elmo-like character, who's covered in strange sigils instead of fur. Once the last puzzle piece goes into place, the Li'l Cenobites show up and wacky adventures ensue. ... Okay, I'm just making shit up again. Sorry. This is actually The Circus of Disemboweled Plush Toys over at Hanttula, where pics of stuff animals in various states of destruction are on display for your amusement. See? On second thought, the Barker show would be less disturbing, wouldn't it? Categorized as: Toys

03.30.07 by Widge @ 11:50 pm  Is it wrong of me to find it disturbing that in the Previews catalog immediately after the much-touted (and as we all know, totally useless and up for being reversed at any time) death of Captain America, I find a listing for the Zombie Captain America action figure? Granted, he's Colonel America in the Marvel Zombieverse, but still. I'm just asking. Try this, then. Is it wrong of me to find myself impressed and drawn in by the fact he has a removable skullcap? That is wrong, isn't it? Categorized as: Toys

03.17.07 by Widge @ 4:59 pm  User lemonie on the Instructables site has put together a handy how-to for making a Lego chainsaw. He then goes berserk and mauls some broccoli with it, no doubt in response to a childhood dislike of the stuff. This is important, you know, in case you ever find yourself stuck in the Land of the Giants or...um...or something. Categorized as: Stimuli and Toys

03.15.07 by Widge @ 9:00 am  Squid.us points us to Adopt a Squid, where you can...well, do exactly what the title says. How huge is huge? Well, check it out: yes, that's a person behind the squid's head, holding it up. Huge, baby! And all of the squid for sale come with their own personalities. The one shown is Benedict: Lets get something straight. Benedict is Archibald's arch nemesis. No one is sure why, but the feud has lasted for years. If ordering both, please keep them seperate. Nice. And of course: Benedict is black, which goes with everything I own. Pricey, though. Oh well. Categorized as: Toys
