Tiny Knit Superheroes Hit Etsy So Your Dolls Can Pretend to Be Villains

Posted on by

When I think of superheroes, I usually envision large, hulking men or women in tights, capable of taking down the most evil of supervillains. They usually don’t conjure up images of tiny, cuddly knits which are small enough for the cat to swallow.

But the textile artists of Sweden’s Crivens Studio clearly have the latter in their minds. They handmake and sell these miniscule superheroes which measure just about  1″ tall each. Each tiny hero is knit from yarn and the is small enough to let your dolls play with them – assuming you still play with dolls – and your dolls still play with dolls too.

They’re currently available for $25(USD) each in Batman, Superman and Iron Man versions, and if you’re more into zombies than superheroes, there’s a couple of those for sale too.

 


Cthulhu Ski Mask is R’lyeh Creepy

I know, I know the pun doesn’t make sense, but so does Cthulhu. And that’s the theme of this product so I was actually being clever. I just didn’t realize I was being clever that way. And that’s one of the reasons why the folks at Toy Vault are cleverer. The other reason being their indoctrination of crowd funders to back their Cthulhu Knitted Ski Mask.

The Cthulhu Knitted Ski Mask is just like the Cthulhu knit ski hat, except it has one hell of a unibrow and more upper case letters in its name.

Bravo sir. Bravo. I bet half of the backers pledged just because of that superb pitch. Come brethren, summon your browsers and head to Kickstarter. A sacrifice of at least $20 (USD) gets you a Cthulhu Knitted Ski Mask. May your fellow skiers or robbers have mercy on your soul.

Boba Fett Coffee Cup Cozy: Double Tall Fett Latte, Please.

Posted on by

You jeered when he captured Han Solo and loaded him aboard Slave I. You cheered when he fell to his “death” into the Sarlacc pit (even though it was a lame way to die, and it turns out Fett survived after all.) Now be thrilled as Boba Fett keeps your cup of coffee warm. Now this bounty hunter works for you.

This coffee cozy was made by Etsy seller littlepopos. It’s really adorable and is just $22(USD) but it isn’t the only cool cozy that she has for sale. How about a companion cube cozy from Portal 2? Maybe a Sentry Turret beanie hat?

If your taste runs more toward Pokémon, then check out this Pikachu coffee cozy. There are just too many cool items to buy from her shop. Stuff to keep you or your coffee warm; stuff to keep your head warm. Boba fett is probably my favorite. What do you guys think?
