The Hundreds x Pepsi T-Shirt Collection

The Hundreds x Pepsi T-Shirt Collection


The Blot has to hand it to The Hundreds, they never cease to amaze me with their out of left field collaborations! At least The Hundreds’ newest release, the Pepsi T-Shirt Collection, ties-in nicely with their previously released Back to the Future collection. While I’ve never been a Pepsi drinker, you can’t deny their impact on popular culture. So it’s fitting that The Hundreds chose to draw inspiration from the soft drink brand’s iconic advertising – from the ‘40s through the 2000s – for its new Pepsi Collection. There’s even a killer Back to the Future II design!

The Hundreds x Pepsi T-Shirt Collection

As Bobby Hundreds explained, part of the reason Pepsi’s had such an impact on our world is the “iconic stars that they [have] incorporated into advertising, their pin-up posters, [and] even on the cans themselves.” Be it Madonna in the ‘80s, Cindy Crawford in the ‘90s, or Britney Spears in the 2000s, Pepsi has consistently photographed pop culture icons who exemplify the decade they’re from. So The Hundreds set out to recreate Pepsi’s advertising campaigns by recreating their most memorable photos with the help of model Denise Schaefer.

The Hundreds x Pepsi T-Shirt Collection

The Hundreds x Pepsi T-Shirt Collection is currently available in a variety of colors and sizes at The Hundreds online store for $36 each.

Peanut Butter and Jelly T-Shirt by Deli Fresh Threads


It’s been a while, but our good friends at Deli Fresh Threads are back with a brand new food inspired t-shirt design! The “Peanut Butter and Jelly” t-shirt was inspired by the classic sandwich that’s been feeding Americans since the early 1900s. When Biggie of Deli Fresh Threads came up with the idea for this t-shirt he wanted a classic and clean look, so he turned to the talented Alex “Friks84” Lopez to help design it. The Blot can’t lie, I’m getting hungry just looking at this “Peanut Butter and Jelly” t-shirt!

Hot Topic Exclusive Star Wars Chrome Darth Vader Pop! Vinyl Figure by Funko

If you love chrome Pop! vinyl figures as much as The Blot, then you will definitely want to get your hands on this super shiny new Hot Topic exclusive Chrome Edition Darth Vader Star Wars Pop! by Funko! This is a pretty killer look for the Dark Lord of the Sith, but I’m not sure we could watch 3 movies of him looking this metallic. Then again, no one would ever be able to hit him with a blaster or lightsaber on account of all the light reflecting from his armor.

Instead of Funko’s standard Natasha Romanoff Pop! that features her holding her signature batons, this version sees the Black Widow wielding Captain America’s iconic shield. In The Blot’s honest opinion, we can never get enough Black Widow figures and she looks so killer with Cap’s shield. This might be Funko’s best Black Widow figure yet!

GameStop Exclusive Black Friday Funko Mystery Box Gold Chase Vinyl Figures - Blackest Night Superman, Batman, Batgirl, Claptrap & Power Armor

When Funko decided to get into the blind box game with their popular line of Pop! vinyl figures they weren’t messing around! Along with their new line of Hot Topic Exclusive Pop! Mystery Blind Box figures, Funko has also released these epic GameStop Exclusive Black Friday Funko Mystery Boxes containing one of six different Black Friday exclusives: DC Comics' Blackest Night Superman, Batman and Batgirl, Boarderlands' Claptrap and Fallout 4's Power Armor.

When Funko’s solicitation stated each box “has a 1 in 8 chance of containing a super-rare chase Golden Pop! vinyl figure”, The Blot wrongly assumed there was only one specific character being released as a Golden Pop! Never in my wildest dreams did I think Funko would be releasing all five figures as gold chases, but they did it! Good luck to all the completists out there trying to hunt down all 10 figures in this exciting GameStop mystery release.

Marvel’s Jessica Jones Alias Inspired Character TV Posters by David Mack

Marvel’s Jessica Jones Character One Sheet Television Posters by David Mack - Krysten Ritter as Jessica Jones

Ok, I don’t actually know that these amazing Marvel’s Jessica Jones one sheet television posters were designed by acclaimed artist David Mack, but whoever did it clearly was drawing inspiration (if not outright copied) Mack’s amazing run of covers for the Alias comic book series upon which this TV show is based. They’re fantastic right!?! Each poster focuses upon one of the show’s two central characters, hero Jessica Jones (aka Jewel) portrayed by Krysten Ritter and the evil Kilgrave the Purple Man portrayed by Doctor Who’s David Tennant. The Blot could seriously stare at these for days.

Marvel’s Jessica Jones Character One Sheet Television Posters by David Mack - David Tennant as Kilgrave the Purple Man

It has now been a full weekend since Jessica Jones started streaming Netflix and The Blot is dying to know what everyone thinks! I haven’t had an opportunity to watch it yet, but from all reports it’s a huge hit. It sounds like critics and fans alike are enjoying Jessica Jones even more than Netflix’s first Marvel show Daredevil. I just hope this isn’t the last we see of Tennant in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. We’ve now see two different former Doctors play villains in the MCU, any guesses as to which former Doctor Who actor will show up next!?!
