Colorforms’ Outer Space Men were truly a thing of wonder. Colossus Rex the Man from Jupiter
Sci-Fi: Colorforms Inspired Space Angel
Colorforms’ Outer Space Men were truly a thing of wonder. The female version was not my idea, but I picked up and ran with it.
Better. Stronger. Faster. The Six Million Dollar Man.
If you speak French, check out the original post where these images come from at Screentoyz. It looks like the author goes into detail about when each of these items were released. Before Star Wars. Before Micronauts. After G.I. Joe Adventure Team… we had The Six Million Dollar Man. Based on the hit 1973 television […]

Today I hit 1500 designs on my TeePublic account. Not all are winners, but there are a few that some folks have really enjoyed. I still have yet to see one of my shirts out in the wild, but I have a few friends who have sent me photos of them sporting my work. This […]

Star Trek: Dear Space Santa…
I kid. Sort of. These Star Trek the Motion figures are “Fascinating”. I love the detail and the design is perfect. For some reason, TMP is my favorite Trek film. It’s slow and dry, yet I still adore the movie to no ends. When I still lived in a house, and had a collection to […]
