Oh snap!

Swatch has teamed up with Kidrobot to create “Kidrobot for Swatch,” a collection of eight Gents, each accompanied by a matching complimentary Dunny!

Artists Gary Baseman, Jeremyville, Frank Kozik, Joe Ledbetter, MAD, Tara McPherson, SSUR, and Tilt have all contributed to the new collection, each with a characteristic design for a Gent and its accompanying 3-inch Dunny.

Check out the gallery of pieces below:

I feel like I need the pink one for myself (’cause all I can think of is “OM NOM NOM NOM” and we all know how much I love food)… and then, of course, the mustachio for the boyfriend.

These guys will be available September 1, 2011 on http://store.swatch.com. You will also be able to find them in Swatch stores and other points of sale around the globe.

You can either buy the watches separately (the watch and complimentary 3-inch Dunny) or part of a special Kidrobot limited edition (of 300) set. Each of these “Special Sets” consists of the watches in the collection with their limited edition number (001/300, 002/300, etc) and is presented in special packaging to correspond with its Dunny.

Eight of the Dunnys in the limited edition packages are 3 inches high, while Frank Kozik’s mustachio’d white Dunny will also be available with a 20-inch high version!

So someone on my Twitter feed posted about this today and I gotta say… considering some of my other obnoxious print garments, I might need to add this to that section of my closet.

The dress is made by Black Milk and is selling for $100. You can purchase it here.

Aside from these, the following are also necessary, haha:

So I was taking a moment to catch up on my blogrolls, and ‘lo and behold, one of my favorite blogs posted some cool gamer cakes the other day– just in time for the E3 craze, wouldn’t you say?

Anyway, below is a Halo cake…

Here are some progression stills of the Knave of Hearts from Alice in Wonderland:

Okay, so I can’t really make a statement like that in all seriousness considering, other than a very very painfully boring four-hour layover there once, I’ve never actually been around the country…

However… this is pretty rad… HELLO KITTY AIRLINES:

So with my recent obsession with the axolotl salamanders, I stumbled upon this on Google:
