A Floppy Floppy Disc
Thursday, February 25th, 2010Please excuse the Dairy’s late start today. Things got kind of interesting around here, but here I am and there you are. Let us continue with our daily ramblings, shall we?
If there was any good way to start the day it would be hugging a relic of the past, personified into something cute and personable. [...]
Fetus Popple
Tuesday, February 23rd, 2010Oh dear God.
Craftster thebeatcowboy made this fetus model for an embryology class, and instead of just keeping it simple and creepy like most fetus replication models, she kept it old school and made it into a freaking Popple.
I made this 3 years ago for Embryology class, and I was inspired by the Knitted Digestive [...]
Toy Fair 2010: Banana Design Lab Snugglies
Thursday, February 18th, 2010Like any convention, Toy Fair was pretty exhausting and it didn’t help that we had lunch 5 hours after I was ready to start stuffing my face. But as I nearly fell asleep, wandering the aisles of crazy people with toys, I stumbled upon the Banana Design Lab booth where I finally got to give [...]
Toy Fair 2010: Brinca Dada’s Emerson House
Wednesday, February 17th, 2010Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you the most gorgeous doll house I have ever had the pleasure of laying eyes upon, Brinca Dada’s Emerson House. Now I understand modern architecture isn’t for everyone, but I happen to be fans of its fans. What can I say? I’m a modern girl. Must be all that [...]
Toy Fair 2010: Iwako Eye Candy!!!
Wednesday, February 17th, 2010There were plenty of yummy things to gaze upon over at the Iwako booth, but nothing beat the stacks upon stacks of boxes of erasers, my favorite school supply. I used to collect erasers as a kid and though my magical collection has mysteriously disappeared over the years, I’ve managed to salvage a few gems. [...]
Toy Fair 2010: Fun Sand
Wednesday, February 17th, 2010After Paul and I were randomly accosted by some woman with some kind of something something for kids with something or another, we sought refuge in the Fun Sand booth across the way. Good thing we did because that stuff was weeeeiiirrrdddd. As I mentioned yesterday, there were no children at Toy Fair, so we [...]
Toy Fair 2010: Areaware’s Cubebot
Wednesday, February 17th, 2010Wooden toys will always be a classic and transforming robots will always be a hit. So what happens when you put two together? Cubebot! Areaware’s booth was definitely a breath of fresh air deep in the dark belly of Toy Fair after aisles and aisles of boring board games and cheesy outdoor activity scooters. I [...]
Toy Fair 2010: Living Dead Dolls Are Drop Dead Gorgeous
Tuesday, February 16th, 2010While visiting the LBP figures over at Mezco, I got a chance to get up close to some upcoming Living Dead Dolls series. And by up close, I mean they were in a glass case. Good enough for me, their creepy gorgeousness shined through. Unfortunately, these photos do them absolutely no justice. Mind you, this [...]
Toy Fair 2010: LittleBigPlanet Figures!
Tuesday, February 16th, 2010I had to dive through a backed up pile of boys from the Diamond booth to get to these little LBP figures over at Mezco and I’m glad I did since I was awarded with my very own LBP keychain for being a good LittleBigWarrior.
Judging by the envious look in Coop’s eyes, I might want [...]
Toy Fair 2010: Funko Plushies Sets
Tuesday, February 16th, 2010While waiting on one of the boys, I noticed these adorable Justice League plushies from far away over at Funko’s booth. I thought to myself, “Oh man, those better be Justice League plushies or else.” Luckily for Funko, they were. And lucky for all of us, they also come in The Wizard of Oz and [...]
Toy Fair 2010: Domo-Kun At Dark Horse!
Tuesday, February 16th, 2010Over at Dark Horse there was a glass case stocked with Domo-Kun and I may or may not have began drooling all over myself when I saw it. In retrospect, it was really Paige who tuned me into the lovable monster and now I just can’t get enough. So mama Paige, which one is your [...]
Toy Fair 2010: On The Floor
Tuesday, February 16th, 2010Yesterday, a team of Gamervisioneers (Luke, Coop, Paul and I) ventured up to the Big Apple for this year’s mega fabulous Toy Fair! Just try and wrap your head around the concept of a giant building filled with toys and adults, yet no children to get in your way. It’s kind of awesome. And it’s [...]
The Dairy’s Gone Toy Fair-ing
Monday, February 15th, 2010Don’t wait up for me, kiddaloos. I’ll be in NYC looking at toys. Jealous? Yeah, well even I’m jealous of myself.
Catch ya on the flip side.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Fingers
Thursday, February 11th, 2010Hey man, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are pretty cool and all, but when it comes to finger puppets, it’s all about Splinter. Bawww, look at him. He’s so cute! Though I’m sure his ninjutsu has seen better days. Like when he had arms and legs…
The Fighting Turtles Finger Puppet Set is available from the [...]
Skip The Chocolates – Valentine’s Day Box Of Microbes!
Tuesday, February 2nd, 2010ThinkGeek’s microbe plushies are pretty great as is. I totally gave Dom salmonella for Christmas once, and it was great! So why not skip the chocolates, the roses and the trashy lingerie and give your loved one a heart-shaped box of all the things Valentine’s Day is made out of, including sperm, egg, penicillin, amoeba [...]
Round Monopoly?
Sunday, January 31st, 2010Celebrating its 75th anniversary of tearing families apart, Monopoly plans on going round later this year and I’m actually horrified. Not that Monopoly and I have ever had a special connection. I’ve always kind of hated it, mostly because I always lose. Miserably. And it’s not pretty. Seriously, I nearly killed two of my wonderful [...]
Star Wars Play-Doh!!!!
Sunday, January 24th, 2010Awwwww, Star Wars Play-Doh! This brings back so many memories of my Play-Doh diner that I had as a kid, which coincidentally, was around the same time I watched a lot of Star Wars. If only my worlds would combined then, I would have been a clay carbonite, droid oozing master! Better late than never [...]
iPhone Steering Wheel
Monday, January 18th, 2010Just when I thought there weren’t enough K’NEX in the world, boom, there they are. And they’re doing something cooler than just being a crane or a Ferris wheel. I take that back. There’s nothing better than a K’NEX crane or Ferris wheel, but at least the steering wheel is adapting to an even more [...]
LEGO Birthday Candles
Sunday, January 17th, 2010Ok, they’re not technically LEGOs. They’re Blokz. Whatever that means. Actually, I do know what that means. “Prevention of a ridiculously expensive lawsuit.” Fair enough. Moving on. Celebrate a new year of getting old by staying eternally young… at heart. Ha! You can’t reverse aging! But apparently you can staple your eyebrows to your forehead.
Blokz [...]
