slobot x bovinyl moody + lift detroit = SCUBA STEVE
here's my custom moody for "mooood swings" at http://www.liftdetroit.com
he's a shark hunting diver slobot, just so you know.
the show opens this weekend, September 6, 2008.
there is a nice bit on bovinyl's blog (creators of the moody) about scuba steve... you should check it out.
so, here's the thing... mr potatohead = american kaiju
so, off topic a little bit for me, but its still a toy. i have to preface this by saying that i have a mr slo-tatohead in the works, but as i pondered this today, i realized that mr potatohead is AMERICAN KAIJU... i mean, what is scarier than a potato with eyes, a mouth, and arms... in the 70's, i think he had some friends that were carrots too...
scary stuff.
