I don’t know much about this lovely bit of ‘film geek’ sculpture. Nonetheless, I spotted it on a site called bravecadet.com and thought I’d share it:

Big Lebowski slippers

If I’d have known that these little fellas existed prior to Christmas, they’d have been on my list to Santa. Or maybe they’ve been designed as one offs by a fan. Either way, here’s a pair of Big Lebowski themed slippers – check them out, they’re mildly delightful:

Breaking Bad – Walt plushies

Posted in Art, TV with tags , , , , , , , , , on December 7, 2012 by dc

I came late to Breaking Bad. But the last two months have seen me catch up and get fully immersed in what has to be one of the greatest TV series ever made.

There’s very little Breaking Bad merchandise around, except for the odd t-shirt, hoody and obligatory key-ring. There are however, quite a few bits and bobs of fan-made merchandise doing the rounds. I’ve posted a photo of some amusing BB cupcakes, and many of you have probably also seen the occasional ‘meth’ doughnut too – but here’s a photo of three rather adorable Walt White plushies (or stuffed toys if you will) that 27 year old Canadian ‘fiber artist’ Michelle Coffee has designed:

Coffee‘s fiber art has been featured websites like the Huffington Post and Entertainment Weekly – you can check out more of her work here and/or visit her Facebook page here.

Father Ted t-shirts

Amidst all the endless sit-com re-runs on digital TV, one of the few ever-presents to maintain it’s endless chuckle-factor is the timeless Father Ted.

Between 1995 and 1998, three series of the show aired and quickly became cherished by British viewers. And now, 14 years after it was first screened you can get your hands on some Graham Linehan approved Father Ted t-shirts at tedtees.com (some have even been designed by the man himself).

Check out the full range here.

The Big Lebowski talking keyring

Posted in Film, gadgets, Nonsense with tags , , , , , , , , , , , , on January 14, 2012 by dc

Sometimes it’s January before you start thinking about all the odd things you wished you’d got for Christmas – or maybe, in the case of The Big Lebowski talking keyring, you’ve only just spotted your perfect present.

The keyring purports to have the Dude‘s six best lines from the film all but a pressed button away from your fingertips. It’s inessential nonsense for the quirkly pleased, and it’s available to preorder at bigbadtoystore.com by clicking here.

The Stone Roses – Heaton Park gigs – t-shirts, keyrings and coasters

Posted in Gigs, Music with tags , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , on October 29, 2011 by dc

Since writing a handful of blogs about The Stone Roses’ reunion recently, I’ve been asked quite a few times about where people might be able to get hold of a poster for the Heaton Park gigs.

As yet I’ve yet to track down anywhere that’s selling the poster (which I’m prsuming has been designed by John Squire). I have however come across a page on Ebay that’s currently selling t-shirts, keyrings and coasters with the design printed on them.

If that sounds like something that’d float your boat and look good on your person or on your coffee table, then head over to the ebay page here.

If anyone has any links to places selling the poster get in touch.
