You want some art? Well, by god, we’ve got some art for you…and some crafty stuff…and maybe a sculpture piece if that’s your thing.
Will that be all Master? Geez, you’d think I was specifically put here to do all your art bidding or something…
Teaching kids the importance of the alphabet is a no-brainer, but let’s face it, “A is for Apple” is so yesterday.
What they really need is an alphabet that incorporates the things that are important for a growing nerd to know…B is for Bigfoot…G is for Ghostbusters…X is for X-Wing.
Now those are the building blocks to real education.
The Hollywood Theater in Pittsburgh, PA is one of those great independent theaters that we need to support (even if you haven’t set foot in it). Why? Because if you ever want to see movies that the chain theaters won’t touch, you gotta go somewhere.
To stay competitive, the independents need to go digital (which is a huge cost for a business to incur) and in order to raise funds for their Go Digital, or Go Dark campaign, The Hollywood Theater has released some exquisite movie posters (including my favorite above) for you to purchase.
So help support a great theater and get an awesome poster for the movie buff on your list…hell, pick one up for yourself as well.
Map of California, Thanks to A Criminal Mastermind
If Lex Luthor took over California, there is a good chance that CA would look like this…which is infinitely cooler for the entire world.
Giant Cardboard Robot Arm Making Kit
This is one of those things that you’d only buy for the holidays…and usually for someone just as crazy as you.
And really, who wouldn’t want to build a pair of cardboard robot arms and start bitch-slapping family members until they bow down before you…I would…and so would you.
Real Life Rock ‘Em Sock ‘Em Robots Anyone?
Izzy the Navigator is from a series of Space Alien plush dolls (MadKnits) created by Kaitlin Juarez. The back story of the plushies is as follows:
The MadKnits creatures are a ragtag group of alien space explorers that have crashed their ship into our planet and have since made it their home.
Sounds like a perfect excuse to introduce a collection of dementedly adorable space aliens to a highly impressionable child in your life.Isn’t being irresponsible fun?
If you are Jack Kirby fan (or have a JK fan on your holiday list), then you’re in luck. As a special treat, you can receive three JK prints (Starman Zero, Sky Masters and Gods) for only $19.99.
Yeah, $20 will get you three pieces of artwork by one of comics’ greatest artist.
Not a bad deal is it?
I absolutely adore the Universal Monster movies and these posters not only celebrate those flicks from yesteryear, they look fabulous grouped on a wall where your love of old horror movies can really shine.
I’m putting mine in the bathroom ’cause that is where the real horror show is.
At $1900 this is not going to be a gift you give someone you “kinda like”, Christ, I wouldn’t even give it to my husband, but I included it for one reason; It’s frakking cool.
Created by artist Toby Fraley (whose work has been shown all over the world) and “…Handmade from vintage picnic jugs, coffee thermoses, old vacuum cleaner tubes and other found objects, Rocking Robot is a playful study of mid-20th century American culture and design. Combining influences from rock ‘n’ roll, science fiction and the sleek “futuristic” design style of the era” you know you are investing in a solid piece of art.
If you are looking to bring some playfulness to your home and like robots, consider buying this piece…it’ll make you happy.
A minimalist take on the famous coifs of TVs most beloved characters. You have Jerry’s mullet, George’s bald goodness, Kramer’s mania and Elaine’s up do…what more could any Seinfeld fan want?
Question:
What Bear is Best?
If you answered Black Bear, you’d be wrong. The best bear is one that is gutted and worn by Dwight Schrute…it was a trick question.
When I was growing up in the 70s there was no cooler man alive than The Fonz. Everyone either wanted to be him or date him (and I am positive that he and Mrs. C had a little something something on the side).
If you happened to be the kind of person who swooned when Arthur Fonzarelli came on the screen, then this Pop Art ode to the sweetest thumb on the planet will make your day.
Perfect for those 40-something people who haven’t quite gotten over 70s TV.
Did I just put up a G-Force: Guardians of Space print of Ace Goodheart (aka Jason from Battle of the Planets)?
Yeah, I did.
You’re adoration is payment enough…now buy it and hang it up on your walls.
The Periodic Table of The Muppets
Science meets the Muppets in this fantastic print that will no doubt act as a conversation starter at any party. By the time everyone figures out who is who, they will all be friends…or at least Muppet appreciators.
Which is really what any great party requires, a bunch of drunk Muppet lovers.
Did you really think I wouldn’t include a Star Wars print?
And believe me, one that is this adorable almost makes up for the fact that George Lucas slipped in Hayden Christensen’s body at the emotional end of the re-mastered version of Return of the Jedi…almost.
When the weather turns bitter cold and you have kids hanging around the house, you need something to distract them, and this insanely cool cardboard Micky will do the trick.
Weird enough to keep their attention and requires nothing more than punching out the pieces with a finger and putting them together.
I’m guessing that you will get 15-20 minutes of private time out of this activity, which is more than enough time to guzzle down a travel-size bottle of Goldschlager and contemplate birth control.
Josh Latta‘s inspired Breaking Bad print makes you yearn for a BB cartoon on Adult Swim…not a bad idea if you ask me.
The Breakfast Club Detention Print
Got a hard-on for The Breakfast Club but don’t necessarily want to litter your home with movie posters?
Than this minimalist portrait of all the major players sitting in detention will make your 80s heart sing…sheesh, even The Dick is represented.
God I miss John Hughes.
The X-Men have been around for 50 damn years, isn’t it time you gave a shout out to the comic series that influenced writers and artists for longer than most of you have been alive?
Yeah, I thought so.
Graphically powerful and simple, the perfect way to say thanks for making you into the huge nerd you are today.
Little Eddie Giclée Print by Stephanie Buscema
The littlest Munster is beautifully brought to life in all of his vampire adorableness holding his Wolfie doll.
A must have for the monster fan in your life.
