I just began watching OBAN STAR RACER. Man, what a great show! Great characters, beautiful design, quality animation, epic story. Even though the show is geared at 8 to 12 year olds, there's something for everyone to enjoy. I've heard that the show will eventually be broadcast in around 80 countries...so no matter where you are in the world, you're bound to find a way to watch it.Much like Muttpop, the team behind Oban Star Racer is a multi-national group. Although originally conceived by Savin Yeatman-Eiffel and his SAV! THE WORLD company, he worked closely with an amazingly talented Japanese animation team to bring the animated universe to fruition. The results speak loudly for themselves.Here's a wonderful sequence where main character MOLLY races one of my favorite characters: THE SPIRIT.

Recently Muttpop Bob was telling you about THE MYSTERIOUS STRANGER, the animation who traumatized him. If you follow this link, you'll find an excerpt of RA, a French short movie that I've seen in 1984. I wasn't traumatized because I was too old already but I still think it's one of the scariest piece of art I've seen in my life. I know at some point it was released on a tape with a few other shorts. If somebody could find me a copy, he'll get a nice gift!

I didn't know why but this morning I woke up thinking about TAVARES, a disco band form the seventies that I didn't even like. I made a search, found this picture and realized why I though about them: because of their amazing look!

We don't know anything about him... yet. Art by Gobi.

This is something we're thinking about. A series of super deformed LUCHADORES FIVE toys.
