Well, let me introduce to you a little company called Wild Work and their newest release “The Five Element” action figure. Wow… what a load of crap this is. If you are like me, you are a fan of Luc Benson’s The Fifth Element starring Bruce Willis (Korben Dallas) and Milla Jovovich (Leeloo). If you aren’t familiar with The Fifth Element, than you mind as well jump into that volcano in Iceland. Well, instead of doing it the right way and getting the license to make an official Leeloo action figure, Wild Work created a crap-tacular “parody” of Leeloo and called it The Five Element. Considering most “parody” generic figures are slightly different from the real deal, Wild Work pretty much copied Leeloo’s costumes exactly as it is in the film. I would be so angry about this if the figure was actually decently done, however, oddly shaped body and less than spectacular quality of the stitching on the clothing really hurts my eyes. Leeloo was definitely an ass kickin’ vixen, yet Five Elements screams the exact opposite. Its definitely NOT a sexy figure. Kinda looks like shes wearing diapers considering her ass is a bit deformed. For any of you that is willing to buy this despicable figure, its going to set ya back about $100.
GRADE: 1 out of 10 dead Ewoks. Its truly disgusting to look at.

So… this is definitely… new. Hong Kong toy designer/manufacturer, Hot Toys is pretty well known for their amazing articulate 1:6 scale action figures and impressive sculpting skills. Well, Hot Toys recently started offering generic 1:6 scale action figures called “Hot Toys True Types” for collectors to buy that wants to make customized action figures. Standing at around 12 inches and with 38 points of articulation, collectors can dress True Types figures as military, fantasy, sci-fi, etc. themed characters. Hot Toys is offering the male True Type figures in three different styles. Unfortunately, the “African American” Advanced version True Type action figures looks a bit like President Obama. Just look at that face! Can it be anyone else? Even worse is that all True Type action figures come butt-nekked. If you are down with seeing Presidential skin, this is your figure! As much as I am a loyal fan of Hot Toys, I think sculpting the face so close to the most powerful man in the United States was a unfortunate mistake. Expect these True Type action figures for sales in August for about 35-45 dollars. Good gawd, President Obama is buff as hell! /stare
GRADE: 5 out of 10 dead Ewoks. I can’t help, but stare…
Hit the jump to see more. Don’t say I didn’t warn ya.

WHAT THE HELL DOES ALL THIS MEAN?! Anyone that follows my Twitter knows all to well the hatred I feel for these vile furry bastards. Unfortunately, director/producer Rob Tyler of Portland, Oregon does not share my feels as he created a wonderfully sickening karaoke video of the song sung by the Ewoks during their celebration at the end of Star Wars Return of the Jedi. Look at that screen shot above! That bastard Ewok is holding Lord Vader’s head on a stake. This is sooooo wrong…
Hit the jump. Behold the terror.

Anyone buy an iPad yet? Considering the fact that I am still waiting till the “end of April” for Apple to ship me my iPad 3G, I couldn’t help but shit a brick when I laid eyes on the iPad L on dannychoo. I pretty much broke my wireless mouse only to notice that the update for the iPad L was on April 1st. Of course, a sigh of relief came over me when I realized that it was a hoax, but I became pretty impressed with the convincing prank. The so-called iPad L was suppose to feature a snazzy 16 inch touch screen at a 1600×1200 resolution. Considering the joke priced the iPad L with a hefty price tag of 82,800 yen (over $880), ya have to think whether the legions of Apple fans would buy this monstrosity. I think so. I would…
