Look at how damn old this dude is on the box!!!


Wait that might be me in the future. Well maybe Lego will put a picture of me on a future lego box, like a sports player on a Wheaties cereal box but for nerds. Or a pedophile. Whatever.

2008 Lego Police




Looks like an improvement over previous years police sets

Truffle Shuffle


I don't know where this photo came from (I'm sure its fan made and never really a cartoon): But the thought of a Saturday morning cartoon of a bunch of dysfunctional, asthmatic, fat Jewish, kids from the 'Goon Dock' hanging out with a seven foot tall retard whom thinks he's superman brings a smile to my face. I'm going to go play Goonies 2 on my 8bit and throw the controller through my TV.

Husbands and Knives


Normally I would never ever ask any friend to endure the misery of watching a new Simpson's episode - But remember this week (November 18th) features the voice of Alan Moore as the owner of a new hipper comic book store that opens across from the Androids Dungeon called Coolsville Comics & Toys

Lego Batman to feature all new story, because there are no good Batman stories?





It's been a while since we heard anything from TT Games' Lego Batman, other than it being formally announced for the Microsoft Xbox 360. Now, we not only got word that the game is still alive and kicking, but also that it's going to feature an entirely new storyline. Yes, no movie tie-ins for the Brick Dark Knight of Gotham, he's going on a completely different adventure on his own.

This news comes directly from a statement released from Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment Senior Vice President of Production and Development Samantha Ryan, who confirmed that even if Lego Batman is to be released on pretty much the same time as the next Batman movie, the only thing in common with them would be that they feature the same titular character. Which is a good thing, considering that movie tie-in games have been so-so as of late.

generic Akira Bike on sale soon




The intriguing electric bike seen in this video, the EV-X7, has a magnetic motor built into its rear wheel. The motor is a hybrid between a electromagnet and a permanent magnet. It was designed by the Axle Group in Japan. The bike has a range of about 110 miles on a single charge, and a top speed of about 92 mph. The company plans to start selling a mini-scooter version of the magnetic-powered bike next year, which will be priced at about $2100. See a photo of the bike over the fold.

The best toy ever!


An extremely popular toy in Australia, the "Bindeez" bead pen, has been banned across the country after it was discovered that the beads, if ingested, metabolize into gamma-hydroxybutyrate, known on the street as "GHB." GHB causes a feeling of euphoria in lower doses, but can cause a loss of consciousness at higher doses.

I've heard it can also cause you to periodically nod off into a nightmare zone, only to return from your momentary terror with no memories of the experience besides an aftertaste of panic, which fades quickly enough in the alcohol-like euphoria to make you forget that the next descent into the punk-and-bloat dimension is just seconds away.

Like a dog to it's own vomit Joss Whedon goes back to Fox for new show

Here's how Fox describes the series:

Echo (Eliza Dushku) [is] a young woman who is literally everybody's fantasy. She is one of a group of men and women who can be imprinted with personality packages, including memories, skills, language—even muscle memory—for different assignments. The assignments can be romantic, adventurous, outlandish, uplifting, sexual and/or very illegal. When not imprinted with a personality package, Echo and the others are basically mind-wiped, living like children in a futuristic dorm/lab dubbed the Dollhouse, with no memory of their assignments—or of much else. The show revolves around the childlike Echo's burgeoning self-awareness, and her desire to know who she was before, a desire that begins to seep into her various imprinted personalities and puts her in danger both in the field and in the closely monitored confines of the Dollhouse.
