I've been very busy with a new project lately. So busy, in fact, that I completely forgot about some photos I snapped while visiting the Pasadena City College Flea Market last month. Fortunately, photos of the always amusing and oddball things one can find at any given flea market are timeless, so I could post them years later and they'd still be just as relevant as they are now. With that in mind, here are photos of my favorite finds from last month's PCC Flea Market:
I suppose if you're going to stumble on a Madballs toy that's been horribly mistreated, it might as well be Dust Brain. He's a weathered old mummy to begin with, so some extra scratches on his face actually work well with his aesthetics. Of course, in this condition he's only worth a buck or two at most, but the elderly seller actually wanted $30 for it. Hahahahahahahahahaha NO.
At first I thought this Grave Digger was a ride-on Power Wheels vehicle like the Spider-Man one behind it, but it's just a really large monster truck toy. Still, there's no denying that Grave Digger has the best chasis artwork in the history of monster trucks, so it's always a welcome sight.
If you're a fan of The Real Ghostbusters cartoon like I am (and you should be), finding an original Slimer cartoon art cel is always an extremely good thing. In this scene, I like to think he was about to raise his hand to ask if he could have a hall pass to go use the restroom, but was secretly gonna use it to raid the snack machines.
You know, if I've said it once, I've said it a thousand times... it's really hard to find a good Wind-up Knitting Cat. Fortunately, this flea market has us covered.

I was watching The Goonies the other day, when I suddenly realized I had a big problem with one of the scenes. You might even say this particular scene made me somewhat mad:

Please check out the video, drop a comment on Youtube, and feel free to make suggestions for moments that might make me mad in future episodes on my Youtube channel.
One year ago today, we released Abobo's Big Adventure - the game of my dreams. It's been an absolutely incredible experience so far, and it really puts a smile on my face to still see so many people talking about it, playing it, and laughing at it so much. 2012 is a year I'll never forget. Thanks to everybody for the tremendous support!
If you'd like to learn about the tremendous amount of work that went into the making of Abobo's Big Adventure, you can read all about it here.
Remember those important words from "New Year's Evil" tonight:
Don't dare make New Year's resolutions... unless you plan to live!
Hope everybody had a great Christmas holiday! So what did Santa leave under your Astro-Weenie Christmas Tree this year? Yeppers, you know the drill... post what gifts you received over the holidays this year so we can all be extremely jealous and decide who we need to burglarize in the future. I'll post my holiday haul soon, but I still have my birthday to survive today. I'm sure I'll be devouring a Carvel ice cream cake at some point, so that's a damn good start.
Okay, on with the gifts! Post lists of whatcha got and feel free to include photos of your Christmas holiday hauls! Let's see just how spoiled you bastards really are!
Just in time for Christmas, my buddy Andre Meadows (aka: Black Nerd) and I decided we needed to come up with some replacements for Santa Claus should the jolly ol' guy ever kick the proverbial bucket. So here are two videos - one on my channel, one on his - featuring some of our selections for Santa replacements. Please drop a comment in each of our Youtube channels to let us know what ya think of the videos and who you think would make a good replacement for Santa!
PART 1:

Hope you enjoy both videos and hope you all are having a spiffy holiday season! More site updates coming soon.
p.s.: In case you missed it, we also shot two Christmas videos together last year that you can watch here.
