Ultimate 80s T-Shirt
Have you ever heard of Tee Fury? It’s this nifty website where every day, they make one new t-shirt available for just 24 hours or until it sells out. All shirts are sold for $10 (+ shipping), and they never make that same t-shirt again. Their designs come mostly from members of their forum, who create the artwork, and Tee Fury then pays the designer $1 for every shirt they sell. Basically, they profit off of your fear of missing out on something good. Their designs are always geektastic, but as a geek of 80s, today’s design really captured my attention. The designer, “nganci,” combined Ghostbusters’ Ecto-1 with Transformers, the Read more »
These Cereal Box Designs Make It Worth Waking Up For Breakfast
Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. You will never lose weight if you do not eat a proper breakfast. You need breakfast to build up energy to get you through the day. We’ve all heard those platitudes. If you live with your parents, then you probably still hear them on a daily basis. If you struggle with breakfast, I am totally with you. It is difficult to get up in the morning – even more difficult to chow down breakfast when you are barely awake. Your best bet? Some cereal. To add a little more motivation, throw in some of these cereal box designs by Ian Glaubinger. Read more »
Ecto-1 in LEGO
No one does it like the Ghostbusters. These days, we see all sorts of paranormal (or parapsychological) shows on TV, but anyone who grew up with the Ghostbusters knows that these modern shows are nothing compared to the good old days. Now add LEGO into the mix, and no one stands a chance! Mizterzumbi recently showcased his LEGO-building skills that will make your jaw drop. He worked on the iconic Ecto-1, no less. Here’s the back/side view. In case you need to refresh your memory, here is the original Ectomobile. And here is the car with some minifigs built by Joe Klang. You can’t deny that this LEGO model is Read more »
Meet the New Ghostbusters
“The franchise rights alone will make us rich beyond our wildest dreams!” Remember that scene near the beginning of Ghostbusters? Peter Venkman’s eyes lit up at the moneymaking possibilities opening up to him and his friends after their first successful encounter with a ghost. It seems like an oddly prescient comment considering the video game franchise, which is taking a turn away from those original actors toward a whole new four-person crew. In the new Sanctum of Slime video game, a new, inexperienced team takes over for the team from the films. And yet, the more things change, the more they stay the same. This “new” crew has fresh faces, Read more »
Greatest Crossover of 2011 – Already???
It looks like the Zombie Watch needs to be dusted off and returned to centre stage. This week saw what for me is the most anticipated crossover of them all; IDW’s Infestation. Now, comic veterans like us are quite used to the Transformers mingling with the G.I. Joes. Yet in a stroke of genius (and marketing of course, but I’ll ignore that for now), Dan Abnett and the folks at IDW have thrown in the original Star Trek crew, and the Ghostbusters! Bizarre crossovers are the pinnacle of the art of crossovers. If you have never read the Superman and Bugs Bunny mini-series from 2000, then I highly recommend it. Read more »
Ghostbusters: Sanctum of Slime Coming in March
Atari has announced that Ghostbusters: Sanctum of Slime, the new top-down game (a la Lara Croft: Guardian of Light) in the franchise, will launch on March 23rd. Xbox Live and PlayStation Network gamers will be able to download the game that day for a yet-to-be-determined price. Sanctum of Slime is a follow-up to the original Ghostbusters video game, which was a 3D shooter. An expensive game to produce, it featured a story by the films’ writers, the likenesses and voices of the original cast, and top-notch production values. Sanctum of Slime was far less costly to produce, with an entirely new perspective and a new team of ‘Busters who take Read more »
New Ghostbusters Game is Download-Only
Ghostbusters: Sanctum of Slime is the name of the next entry in the Ghostbusters video game franchise. Ghostbusters: The Video Game (man, I still need to play that one sometime…) was enough of a hit that Atari and Sony are planning a pseudo-sequel. It’s not a traditional sequel, because where the first game was an off-the-shelf third-person adventure, Sanctum of Slime takes a top-down view (similar to Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light), and it’s not selling in stores. Xbox Live Arcade, PlayStation Network, and Atari.com will be selling the game for consoles and PC. As developed by creative studio Behavior Studios, this new game finds you taking on Read more »
At Last! Stay Puft Marshmallows
Man, ThinkGeek has everything. Well, almost everything; I keep waiting for them to offer an Inception spinning top. Starting today, they’re offering the ultimate in Ghostbusters merchandise: Stay Puft Marshmallows! According to the website, these are “gourmet marshmallows” that are “delicate and delicious” (which is how they justify the $20 price tag, I suppose). As an added bonus, in lieu of absolutely nothing, they’re also caffeinated. That’s right — in addition to satisfying your sugar fix and celebrating your mondo geekery, you can also get enough energy to go rampaging all over town, just like this sugary treat’s namesake. And that’s not hyperbole. One tiny little Stay Puft Marshmallow contains Read more »
