My brother let me know today that I was getting pretty old...

These Disney Babes Have Verses For Days.

Cinderella (Sarah Michelle) and Belle (Gellar & Whitney Avalon) tear eachother apart in the Princess Rap Battle posted on Whitney Avalon's YouTube channel. Cinderella really goes for the jugular and Belle is brilliant with her comebacks. 

Cinderella: I’m the American Dream/With a fairy-tale wedding/You’ve got teapots for friends/And I think your man’s shedding.

Belle: "You can't fall in love after just one dance," Avalon's Belle raps. "My prince saved my life and don't be misled ... I want a man in the street, but a beast in the bed." 

Catch more of these clever verses by watching the video below.

Last summer while browsing the Threadless site, I purchased this tee (well the tank top version)



... at no point did I bother to check out who the artist/designer was, because who cares, it's just a nice looking shirt.

Fast-Forward to January, I'm browsing the ArtFido instagram account and I run into this:

When I was younger, This is all I wanted to do. I carried this image in my head for a very long time...





I mean seriously, Don't act like you didn't want to! It looks like the funnest thing in the world.

Take me back to Duckburg!

I used to love watching Huey, Dewey and Louie, and Donald Duck in the afternoons on Disney. They were so funny and adorable! It was truly a great animated series, after all let's not forget the fact it is a Emmy winner.
Imagine my excitement when I learned Disney XD was revisiting this series. It's slated to launch in 2017 so get excited!




The series will pretty much have the same story line as before. It will follow around Scrooge McDuck, and his super curious, trouble making grandnephews Huey, Dewey and Louie. Other familiar characters are expected to re-visit the series as well such as Launchpad McQuack, Flintheart Glomgold, and the Beagle Boys.

Are you ready for this crew again?

Get hype! The next few days I will be posting about New York TOY FAIR 2015.

Ok so I know this isn't really a "Throwback" (Dr. Evil Fingers) but I just started this blog recently and was looking for any excuse to feature French Photographers Sacha Goldberger's 'Super Flemish' series.

Goldberger took some fictitious pop culture icons such as superheros, fairytale characters and animals then photographed them as 16th century Flemish-style paintings. They wore their traditional outfits but with old-fashioned twists like ruffled collars and shirts with puffy sleeves. Over 100 people worked on the photos from this series, including 60 models, five costume designers and two digital editors.

Below be prepared to see some of your favorites, Iron Man, Wonder Woman, Batman, Snow White, Darth Vader, The Hulk, Spiderman and more.

Talk about Sushi Porn. 

While roaming through my instagram feed, I saw the good people over at Tokidoki featured a wasabi Bastardino character and it was freaking adorable! I was very impressed by the detail in the wasabi art, beautiful food art really. They linked the photo back to Tamashiro Jon's profile. He is currently a Chef at M Life Nightclub in Hawaii.


After a little instagram stalking on his profile, I was absolutely delighted to see all of the cute characters he's been creating. Characters from Disney, Sanrio, Tokidoki, and more. I can only hope to make my way down to Hawaii one day and see one of his creations in person (Kawaii!).

As someone who really enjoys eating out, It's not always 100 percent about the food but also about the way everything is displayed. When you see something beautiful on a dish it immediately opens up your appetite before even tasting the food, I suspect this is something chef Tamashiro is very good at. I Seeing these characters in person would leave me with an absolute smile on my face.

Below see some of Tamashiro Jon's creations.
