Monkeys
More fantabulous new products have arrived today… it’s like Christmas! All we need now is a turkey roast, some dire telly and a large glass of mulled wine
Must dash, the products won’t display themselves you know (it would be so cool if they did).

Godfather Red Rose Poster
We’ve got three kick ass gangster posters to show you today. Gangsters flicks are usually a viseral and arresting experience, which is probably why they are so popular. These posters are based on two of the greatest crime dramas ever made, The Godfather and Scarface. Arguably the magnificent Godfather beats Scarface hands down but Scarface has amased a cult following to rival virtually any film.
All three are well cool and would look amazing in a bedroom or funky living space.

Superman Kryptonite Nevermore Poster
We’re rather partial to superheroes, they all have cool powers we can only dream of and live in a world where what they do really makes a difference. It must be an honour and a privilege to be a superhero but also a burden too. How many of you have imagined yourself to be Spiderman or Superman when playing as a kid. We certainly do. Alas those days are gone, so thank the lord for comic books and films that still allow us to be immersed in their special world.
Superheroes have been around since the 1930s and are still as popular as ever, a testament to their longevity.
These three bangin’ new products are inspired by the two grand daddies of DC Comics, Superman and Batman.
Superman is the greatest superhero bar none. Yep that’s right, we’ll take Superman over Gambit, Cyclops, the Silver Surfer, Spiderman and even Wolverine. Don’t misunderstand us, we’re not dissing other superheroes, we love them all, it’s just that we love Superman more. He has god-like powers, is virtually invulnerable and cares so much for others, the dude rocks. We love the original Superman films (well just the first two) and Singer’s Superman Returns released in 2006. Hopefully we’ll see a new Superman film (very very soon). For us, he doesn’t just fly, he soars!
Batman, the king of gadgets and thanks to the new Christopher Nolan Batman films he’s been returned to his rightful place as one of the most accessible (and cool) superheroes. Ok I know what you’re going to say but you only like Superman. Which is of course not true. We LOVE Batman, we went absolutely crazy over The Dark Knight and have now watched it well over 10 times. He’s human, he doesn’t have superpowers, just ninja like abilities combined with snazzy gadgets to fight the criminality in Gotham. He’s a silent guardian, a watchful protector, a dark knight.
There’s three fab new posters for your perusal, two Superman and one Batman.

Ok we’re off for now peeps, we’ve got criminals to apprehend!

Mimobot Pink Meletta USB Flash Drive
These well cool USB flash drives are just the thing for the style conscious woman. We’ve already added three Star Wars flash drives to our range so we thought it’s time to add some more girly ones. There’s three Mimobots to look at, one Hello Kitty and two artist designed versions. We hope you’ll agree they’re pretty darn fantabulous.
Mimobots are funky designer flash drives for the discerning computer geek. In fact they’re the world’s first character based USB flash drive collection. Flash drives have been mostly boring and uninspiring… until now.
Mimobots don’t just store your data. For added kick ass value they come with pre-loaded wallpapers, screensavers, icons and sound bytes so you can personalise your computer. The pre-loaded sound clips allow you to hear your Mimobot’s innermost thoughts when you insert or remove it… sweet! Each Mimobot has a 4GB capacity which is enough storage for 1,000 songs and 3,500 photos.
Check out these funky flash drives below, you’ll love them (we promise).
