Threadless Pop Culture Robots “Used Appliances” T-Shirt

While this awesome pop culture tee has been out for a while, The Blot wanted to highlight it while Threadless’ 10th Anniversary $10 Sale was still going on. “Used Appliances” reimagines some of pop cultures most popular robots as mundane household appliances. It’s got everything from Optimus Prime as a dryer, a Voltron lion as a vacuum and R2-D2 as a coffee machine. My favorite is the Mega Man hair dryer, but who doesn’t love the most obvious one, a Cylon as a toaster.

The pop culture robots inspired t-shirt “Used Appliances” comes printed on a silver t-shirt and is currently on sale at Threadless.com in honor of the clothing company’s 10th Anniversary for just $10 (it’s normally $18)! The shirt comes in both guys and girls styles, sizes S-2XL.

Green Lantern Classics Wave 2 Action Figures

Over the weekend, MattyCollector.com released the official first look at Green Lantern Classics Wave 2, the dedicated toy line to Green Lantern comic style action figures. The Blot has to say, the makeup of this wave is very surprising. Along Star Sapphire and Ion (Sodam Yat), Wave 2 also includes two different figures with interchangeable heads and hand.

There is a Green Lantern body with head and hands for Green Lanterns Nautkeiloi and Medphyll, as well as a Red Lantern body with heads and hands for Red Lanterns Skallox and Night Lik. Night Lik is an all new character created by the Four Horsemen and named by Geoff Johns. He will appear in an upcoming issue of Green Lantern, but appears first as a Mattel toy in the Green Lantern Classics line!

This wave also includes a 3 pack of mini-characters: Green Lantern B'dg, Dex-Starr the Red Lantern and Sinestro Corps member Despotellis. The sixth and final figure is a Green Lantern movie preview figure, which is in Mattel's movie style and will be revealed at a later date. And as all Classics Waves, there is a collect and connect figure! Green Lantern Classics Wave 2’s C&C figure is Green Lantern Stel, and he’s definitely one of my favorite C&C figures produced to date!

Each figure will retail for $16.99 each, or you can order a case of Green Lantern Classics Wave 2 at EntertainmentEarth.com for $199.99 here. Each case contains 8 figures and will be released in April 2011.

Barneyism of the Week - Sad Face

I cannot stop staring at that girl’s face.

“Face, huh?
That’s your weirdest nickname for boobs yet.” - Ted

No Ted, I’m really looking at her face.

“Aw, that’s actually really sweet.” - Lily

Puffy cheeks, smudged mascara, slightly red nose.
That girl was just crying.

She’s so sad and defenseless.

Anyone have a condom?
