Coolest Husband Ever!!!

In response to a comment (left by SharonMacross) on my post about the NM minis, I decided to see if there really was a lego Edward, and to see if he did indeed look better than Creepward (wouldn't be hard!)

When I came across this piece of awesomeness:



The note with it reads "Edward Cullen Munny from Twilight - a gift to my beloved wife!" (would you look at that?!? a husband [not mine] who is not only okay with the twisession, but, enables it!)

Flickr user oky_doky1979 proceeds to explain that he made this bit of tender awesome by using this formula: super sculpey + acrylic paints + munny = twilight edward.....

I immediatly went to find what a munny is. It's a blank toy you can decorate/dress/sculpt for yourself into anything you want! (looks like I have another project here)

Which of course led me to look for other twilight munny's, so far, there's practically none of them, I would think this would change as news of this possibility gets around...

Taycob's Not Ready to be Drooled Over

According to a recent interview, TL isn't feeling ready to be the focus of so much attention. Which, could be trouble. As RPattz learned after Twilight premiered, the fan base is mostly comprised of persistent, determined, wiley flocks of dirty birds! If he thinks it's bad now, he may want to just consider moving out of the country by 11/20!




Actual New Moon Minis @ Hot Topic ... FINALLY!!!

Hot Topic finally has the New Moon Minis for sale!!! Their $18.99 a peice, and even though they won't let me link over to the big pictures, you should go check them out, they're a bit different from the early models. They look a tad more poseable, but, less like the actors in some cases (poor Jacob), more like in others (finally a decent Bella, thank goodness) Also, if you go to each page and click the magnifying glass to take a bigger picture look at the figures, you can see the backs of the boxes as well.

One interesting thing is that the Alice and Bella figures measures 6"


while Jacob (who does not seem to be able to be shirtless) measures 6 1/5"


and Creepward measures 7" (SERIOUSLY, WHAT IS WRONG WITH THOSE PANTS?!?)

Shouldn't Jacob be 7" and Edward be 6.5" at this point?

Another curiosity I noticed, is that these are labeled series 1 figures. Are they going to have more than one set of NM minis? Maybe these are series 1 from the beginning of the movie, and they'll have series 2 (shirtless Jacob AND shirtless Edward anyone?) later where Jacob will be taller ...

Oooh, Just in Time For Halloween and or the New Moon Premier

I just ran across these cool accessories, which would be perfect for anytime you want to be a Cullen, you know, if you're a super geek and aren't afraid to dress up and go out in public that is ...




Admittedly, a little more orange than I had in mind, but, cool nonetheless. And the price isn't too bad (when talking about special effect lenses, they get pretty spendy pretty fast!) at $34.95 per lense, and $6.95 S&H, you're running at about $80.95 per set.

CoastalContacts also have a Vampire Red set as well if you want to be in with the bad vamps!

OME Locksmith Anyone!!!

HELP!!! My husband in his thoughtless ways, has locked me (accidentally according to him) out of the room that houses my computer!!! I'm cut off from the internet, my checkbook, all filing, and, ahem, ALL THINGS TWI (well my movie wasn't in there, but, all the books and magazines were as well as the INTERNET!!!

Oh the HORROR!!!

Anywho, I'm borrowing an uplink for now, but, won't be "back online" until tomorrow afternoon at the earliest (unless we're willing to kiss an antique door goodbye and risk ruining the lintel while we're at it, which as of now, I'm not quite there yet ... if we can't get a locksmith by tomorrow afternoon though ...)

Anywho, I'll have lots of movie crap to bitch about when I get back, in the meantime, I just wanted to vent a little and share my misery with people that will empathize (as Mr. Twinatic just doesn't see why the situation is so horrible, that is until I reminded him that the house payment NEEDS to go out tomorrow or it could mean BIG trouble with our trial period agreement, then he saw a bit more the bad, still doesn't get the internet withdrawl, or the need of the twifix)

Anywho, I'm going to spend my precious remaining minutes surfing for RPattz pix and checking out my blogroll.

le sigh!

Twilight Funnies

I don't know if you've ever seen the the juicebox/take 180 productions, but, they've done parodies of both twilight and new moon among other things. I've seen them before, but, my hubs, recently becoming aware of my obsession, and learning newly every day how deep it is, found these and felt the need to share. Very funny, very clever parody, the only kind I appreciate! I hope he's not too disapointed when he realizes that not only have I seen them already, but, I thought they were funny. Hope you enjoy as much as I did!

Also, if you've got a little more time in your day, you can head over to take180.com and see some funnies from these guys, and other artists. It'll keep you busy for a while :)
