Must visit freshMANILA one of these days

Photo Credit: freshManila I haven’t really heard of the store until I stumbled upon this blog. A little bit of Google-fu and I finally came across freshMANILA’s Multiply site. It just hope its the same store. From the looks of it, they’re a designer toy shop selling these annoyingly-cutesy-that-you-want-to-have-them toys. Aside from toys, I see that they also sell some apparel like shirts and sneakers. The...

Evolution of Nintendo characters

If there’s one thing my girlfriend and I love, it’s those good old 8-bit Nintendo NES/Family Computer games especially Super Mario, TwinBee and Battle City. Gimme those old Megaman/Rockman cartridges and I’m good for a day or two. Anyway, revisiting those games are quite tricky, unless of course you still have an old NES lying around. Or you get those compilations of old classics for the PSP and DS that are quite...

Life-Size chocolate Ferrari F1

No one wants just a piece of a Ferrari (since definitely everyone wants the whole car), except probably with this one. What you’re looking at isn’t an F1 car that would hit the tracks for this year’s racing season. It’s a 4,405-lb. hunk of Belgian chocolate from nose to tail. This chocolate Ferrari F1 was made in Italy and will be the centerpiece of the Scuderia Ferrari Club Napoli’s club party. The car,...

Killer Elmo doll might just be a great toy

Tickle Me Elmo dolls rank as one of my most hated things on the planet. Elmo, for that matter, must be my most hated muppet of all time. Nothing beats drum-busting Animal and those grumpy old men as my favorite muppets. Oh yeah, and the Evil Bert is sort of cool too (in a very sick kind of way). Me and my high school barkada always wanted to make a short film featuring a Tickle Me Elmo doll and “induce” some Chucky streak...

Wolverine movie: Taylor Kitsch as Gambit , will.i.am as Kestrel

Okay, so we have more X-Men Origins: Wolverine news. Yesterday, it was just but Variety.com has confirmed it that indeed, Ryan Reynolds will be playing Deadpool in the movie. And being a Wolverine fan that I am, I am keeping close track of the movies progress. Much like with 300, this Wolverine movie has got to be one of my most anticipated movies as a comic-turned-movie fan. It was also announced that Friday Night Lights star Taylor...

Tekken 6 features bosses of huge proportions

If you think the people at Namco Bandai had outdone themselves in Tekken 5 by finally including Devil Jin and the monster patriarch Jinpachi Mishima, then to quote an old (and grammatically incorrect) cliché, you ain’t seen nothing yet! Image Source: http://devil-kazuya.skyblog.com If you have played Tekken 5, then you might have had the opportunity to play as Devil-possessed Jin Kazama, whose style of gameplay is similar to the first...
