Teenage Mutant Ninja Hulk

Wednesday, May 7th, 2008

So, what do you get when you cross a gamma-radiation contaminated man with a mutagen-induced mutant turtle? You get this guy. Teenage Mutant Ninja Hulk (Well, maybe he’s more middle-aged than teen-aged).

My question is – Is this guy more of a Hulk toy or a Ninja Turtle toy?

Damned Dirty Hippie (or Naked Hippie Stuntman)

Friday, April 18th, 2008

Here we are again. A down-on-his-luck homeless toy. They’re always getting in the way when rummaging through the toy bins at fleamarkets and toy shows.
And what do we have here? A filthy, dirty, naked… stuntman. (You remember this guy’s buddy don’t you?)
I never would’ve expected to find another one of these guys, but here he […]

Kewpie Mario Bros.

Tuesday, March 18th, 2008

Question: What happens when a classic doll-turned-mascot of a Japanese mayonnaise company is combined with an equally iconic Japanese video game mascot? You get a weird, effeminate, childish mustachioed plumber.

I’m sure you recognize the iconic Kewpie Doll. You may not know it, but this character is actually a mascot of the ever-popular Japanese Kewpie Mayonnaise. […]

Zombie Puberty

Tuesday, October 30th, 2007

It’s that time of year again. What time is that you ask? Halloween of course. What better way to celebrate than with a thematic entry for such a spooky day.
You’ve seen one zombie, you’ve seen ‘em all, right? Wrong.
Look at this guy. He’s all f-ed up.
Naked,
Green,
Covered with juicy, candy-coated sores,
Oozing puss
… and he’s balding.
It’s tough […]

Axe’s Pitman Keychain

Monday, October 22nd, 2007

In 2004 Axe attempted to appeal to guys with an ad campaign featuring a cartoony armpit character named Pitman. The ads were based on the idea that Pitman is a hit with the ladies because he is so dry.
There’s nothing sexier than dry armpits, right ladies?
You mean there is?
A walking, headless armpit the size of […]
