Happy Labbit Mini Series Hops into June
I think this might be my favorite series of mini Labbits. I especially like the ones with metallic finishes and the ones blowing bubbles. They’ll be $4.99 each and will be available next Thursday, June 7.

A Little Bit On The Leeroy Jenkins Side: Leeroy Jenkins as a bank heist. What if the viral World of Warcraft video from 2005 was a caper instead of a dungeon raid? This video was conceived by doug & serge inc. and directed by Finn O’Hara for the CFC Worldwide Short Film Festival taking place June 5 -10, 2012.

Urban Outfitters x Kidrobot Live Sketch Recap
I went to Urban Outfitters’ Live Sketch event last week and it was actually pretty fun. There weren’t a whole lot of people, and strangely enough, none of them had ever customized a toy before. We were given Kidrobot-branded markers but no paint, probably so that things didn’t get messy. I had never used the markers before and was pleasantly surprised. As expected, the ink was easy to smudge and left noticeable streaks, but the colors were vibrant. At the end of the event, one person won a Mega Munny. Unfortunately, he admitted that he was going to sell it. Oh well. Check out the results above.
There weren’t any artists at the Cambridge, MA event, but Shawnimal, Julie West, and Marka27 were at other locations. Their custom Munnys are available on Urban’s site.
A Little Bit on the Jet Set Radio x Albotasquid Side: I was checking out the entries for Sega’s Jet Set Radio graffiti contest and noticed something black and blue and eight-legged. FamousAfterDeath submitted an entry featuring our Albotasquid. He didn’t win, but he totally should have.

A Little Bit on the ‘Your Patch Needs a Patch’ Side: I usually wait until a game gets a physical release with all the DLC before I buy, but with all the hubub about the game’s ending, I picked up Mass Effect 3 when it was on sale a few weeks ago. The game had a glitch where players couldn’t import their custom characters’ faces if they were created in ME1 like mine (as opposed to ME2). But I heard that Bioware had patched the issue so I didn’t worry. Well, I finally threw the game in yesterday, let the 360 apply the patches, and guess what. My face is still broken.
I checked out Bioware’s support forums and it looks like the patch fixed the problem for most players but not all. It’s been about a month since this has been discovered but Bioware haven’t even acknowledged the problem. Good thing I’ve invested 80 hours into this character.
Now that consoles are almost always connected to the Internet, there’s no escaping the mentality of “ship now, patch later,” so I tend not to complain. But when your patches don’t even fix the problem I tend to regret giving you my $40.
Daily Graffiti: Battle Chasers is one of my favorite comic book series of all time. The artist/writer Joe “MAD!” Madureira is tied with Humberto Ramos as my favorite comic artist, so this wall is special to me and gives me lots and lots of feelings.
Artists involved include MYZE, NUANS, DSPRI, APASHE, SETH2, SPOT, MERLYN, CEVYS, SPAZM, KEYLER, MITE, XEROU. Pic by Thias (°-°).
A Little Bit On The Invincible Scooter Man Side: The Iron Man scooter is kind of amazing. If only it had an actual Arc Reactor, but I’d settle for GPS with a Jarvis voice.
