Gungan Warrior
Even though as a species, Gungans have not received the same amount of toy love as, say, Ewoks, I have always considered them a pretty cool alien race, Jar Jar notwithstanding.![]()

Disney Pixar CARS: Another Amazing Pinewood Derby CAR
Last week, we ran a photo of a super slick pinewood derby Finn – here’s an amazing one from “jmularczyk” … Super nice! Though McQueen’s smile accuracy probably cost you some aerodynamic wind flow. Pretty cool! Tweet This Post

Don’t Trust No-Face
Check out this awesome Limbo and Spirited Away cross over. The bittersweet world of Limbo fits nicely within the Miyazaki canon.
Artist Paul Connor has a talent for combining the world of Limbo with other pop culture icons. This artist is at the top of his digital art game. Great stuff here.

Happy Chinese New Year 2013!
Its that time of year again - happy Chinese New Year! 新年好！恭喜發財！새해 복 많이 받으세요！Its also a happy Korean New Year for those who celebrate.
I'm currently in Malaysia right now - tis my first time ever to spend CNY here and its great to be with family.
Yuki-chan is having a good time too as you can see from her ang bao (red packets) and golden bullion that she managed to find.
Do you celebrate Chinese New Year? Did you get lots of Moolah?
I'll be in Kuala Lumpur until the 15th where I travel to Singapore to attend the Manga Festival - Hatsune Miku's father (boss of Crypton) will be there and I will be MC'ing for him on the 16th at Kinokuniya - will give more details later. Then its back to Tokyo after that.
Up until I leave, I'll be spending time with family and engaging in meetings so no reader meetup this time round. But looks like I'll be back again soon ^^;
And I thought I'd post photos from last years CNY back in Japan - the photos in this post.
Hope you have a great CNY no matter which part of the world you are in!

Learn to Make Chiptunes Vol. 1
If you are anything like me, you’ve probably messed around with making chiptunes before. Again, if you are like me, you’ve probably quit after a few hours of messing around on your Gameboy or hacked PSP with LSDJ.
However, we no longer have that excuse with this nifty zine by Nick Maynard from Kitsch-Bent and Rochester Chip. If you are at all interested, then you should probably pick this up as soon as you can as the last batch sold out in a single day.
Also, if you are needing a needing a new Gameboy, check out what Kitsch-Bent has in stock!
Now I have no excuses to someday be performing at 8Static.
