snuggly but definitely not ugly

0

Snuggly Ugly’s super soft dolls are clearly much more snuggly than they are ugly. Upcycled dresses, soft cashmere hair, and not a hard edged button or nubby nose in sight. These limited editions beauties are ready for some luvs – which one do we hug first?

The post snuggly but definitely not ugly appeared first on Small for Big.

Introducing the BMO plush hand sewing pattern!

0

I am so thrilled to be able to share with you the latest pattern I made. Thrilled because of the way it turned out (awesome) and thrilled because oh my gosh it's finally done and wow was it a lot of work.
Ahem: Introducing BMO (or Beemo, if you prefer), the hand sewing pattern:
BMOpatterncoverSMALLsquare

This pattern is frankly HUGE. It clocks in at 16 total pages. BMO however, is quite tiny- just 3.5" tall.
BMOHandWhiteSmall
Look, he fits right in your hand!

This pattern includes detailed step by step instructions with lots (seriously, LOTS) of photos, a supply guide, and, for the first time ever, a bonus Stitch Guide. An illustrated little extra that shows you how to do all the stitches mentioned in the pattern. Yay!
BMOnicesquare
This pattern is 100% for hand sewing. I'm not going to lie to you, it's a lot of hand sewing. However, this makes it a perfect project to work on while watching, oh, I don't know, an Adventure Time marathon or something. Plus, you will feel like a sewing rock star once you finish one of these little dudes.

If you'd like a copy of your very own, come on over to the shop. BMO is waiting for you!

Tomopop Review: Figuarts ZERO Akainu & Aokiji Battle Ver.

0
0

With dozens and dozens of characters over 17 years of publication, One Piece is a figure company's dream. There are so many characters that can be made into figures, and just as many fans foaming at the mouth to pick them up. What's even better is that there are enough action scenes, costume changes and time skips to provide multiple versions for release.

One of these spin-offs is the battle versions of the Figuarts ZERO line. Previously released characters get put into (ostensibly) better poses with effect parts that reflect their abilities. It's a great idea, but one that could lead to collector fatigue. However, when the quality of the figures is so good, it's hard to imagine fans not snapping them up when they get the chance.

Hit the jump to see two such figures get some excellent battle versions!

The best thing about superheroes is that they appeal to kids and adults alike, since many of the iconic superheroes we know and love have been [...]

GENDERBENT LARA CROFT COSPLAY

Genderbending cosplay is nothing new, we see it all the time. Usually it’s hot chicks dressed as sluttier versions of male characters, but we rarely see manly-men, like Dr. Teng above, dressed as scantily-clad lady characters.

I’d actually kind of like to see this idea pushed all the way to the opposite end of the spectrum — like dudes cosplaying as super suave and macho versions of half-nekkid chicks. I wonder if the character’s would even still be recognizable.

Make 1/6 Dennis Rodman an ambassador to your collection

Say what you will about Dennis Rodman. He's weird to say the least. Even in his current notoriety for being the failed hope for change in North Korea, he'll still be mostly remembered as that guy with the crazy hair from the 1990s. Newcomer to the 1/6 industry, Storm Collectibles, doesn't remember him as one of the greatest players and rebounders in NBA history, but rather as just that crazy guy from the 1990s.

The company has decided to make their first 1/6 figure release of Dennis Rodman in his various outfits and appearances. While none of these looks were found on the court, you remember the antics. You remember the various hair. While most other companies would make each outfit and hair style into their own variant release, Storm Collectibles has included them all in one release. You will get 10 interchangeable hair styles, two heads, four outfits, 11 hands, and a pair of sunglasses. If you order the deluxe version, you'll get an extra body and head, featuring Rodman in makeup, to display as bad as you want him to be.

For a first effort from a company, I have to say they did a great job on the sculpt. The likeness is impeccable, as I already want to punch Rodman in the face. In all seriousness, the only thing that this release is lacking is an actual acknowledgment of his basketball career and a wedding dress. Granted, the wedding dress I can see as an exclusive down the line. If you are interested in The Worm, the standard version is $229.99 and the deluxe for $264.99. It's expected to ship at the end of the year, so you'll have some time to hope for peace in Korea.
