The greatest band in the universe, Math the Band, just released a new music video for their upcoming album, Stupid and Weird. The video depicts a young girl who runs away from her mom in an arcade and ends up in a crazy adventure where she fends off forest monsters and saves the day. Cute girl, fun song, terrific sax solo included. Watch it, and fund their new album today.
Perfect for such a cuddly company image, Shawnimals calls their Black Friday sale "Fuzzy Friday." The event looks to be one to watch forward to for fans of designer toys. Not only will every visitor be able to get 20 percent of their total order from the Shawnimals online store all weekend (from November 29 to December 1) with the coupon code "FUZZITUP20," but the first fifteen customers to use coupon code "FUZZDAY30" on November 29 get 30 percent off.
The fun is just starting with the discounts but the party really gets going with the three special holiday exclusives that will be made available on Black Friday, excuse me, Fuzzy Friday. The toys were previewed as blurry images on November 7, with one toy revealed each week. The first is a pepperminty Holiday Pocket Pork Dumpling. The little delicacy even has a beard and santa cap. No word on edition size or price for this one. Then there's the handmade plush Coachstachio. Sporting some pretty nifty sunglasses, a scarf, and an mustache (it's like mustache Inception), this fellow is limited to 25 pieces at US$50 each. The final release will remain a mystery until the unveiling next week. Any guesses?
And for those in the Chicago area, Shawnimals is hosting its second annual Open House on December 7 from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. There promises to be drinks, snack-ish things, and tons of fun stuff, like prototypes and rare finds available for purchase. Plus, the first 25 people to attend get a goodie bag. You can find more information here.

ThinkGeek is selling officially licensed Minecraft cookie cutters for $20. I actually think they’re pretty cool and the tin they come in are neat as well, granted you can actually bake and craft icing lines into shape, which is something I can’t do for the life of me.
In the United Kingdom, at least. MCVUK reported that Sony will indeed be bundling the PlayStation 4 and PS Vita together, while VideoGamer.com posted an image from MCV, proving that Sony has this lined up for this December. No word on pricing for the UK and absolutely no word on this bundle coming to the US at the moment, but I’m sure we’ll see it soon.
