Shrinky Dink Skateboards

The beauty is, it gets smaller, see? Insert joke about street skating decks here. Shrinky Dinks used to be pretty popular, but they don’t seem to be around much anymore. Maybe it’s because the patent expired and someone figured out a way to apply the technology to inkjet paper. The company’s official web site doesn’t […]

I can see your doodle

There’s enough Bart Simpson skateboarding merchandise out there to choke a horse, not to mention bore it to death, but this motorized Doodle Double Dare set is amusing when dissected. Quick, what’s the first you imagine when you think of a naked dude and twin sisters? I’m kind of surprised this one got made. Since […]

Bart Ball for sporting kids with A.D.D.

First Bart Simpson ruined prime time TV (and killed the Cosby Show) with his sassy mouth and disrespectful, underachieving attitude. Now he’s trying to ruin baseball too.Sporting equipment with pictures of people engaged in entirely different sports always amuses me. It’s like they are saying “Look, I know you don’t want to be doing this […]

Nike toys with skateboarding

Ha! Made you look! So, save your “Don’t do it” speeches. If you are going to geek out over shoes and skateboard toys, this Reese Forbes Nike SB figure would be your wet dream. He came with extra shoes and shoe boxes. I guess these are hard to come by. I don’t know when they […]

Thumb Bunny

Skateboarding really is dead! A disappointing marketing turnout for Valentine’s Day has been followed up with a similarly anemic skateboarding Easter. The Scooby-Doo extreme Easter baskets are nowhere to be seen this year, and so far the only thing I’ve found is a pocket skateboard game (Skate Jam) that is housed in the chassis of […]

Exclusive Photos:
Danny Way practicing for Luxor jump

A skate photographer only gets a few lucky breaks in his or her life. (Actually, where are the female photogs?) All my time and effort has paid off now that I gained secret access to Danny Way’s training facility for his upcoming skateboard mega jump of the Luxor Hotel and Casino. I’m headed to the […]

When is an action figure not an action figure?

When is an action figure not an action figure? When it’s life size, because then it’s a mannequin, or some sort of sex toy. Chalk this up to things I don’t understand, like sneaker fetishes. Coarse Toys makes some action figures, or collection figures? I don’t know what you are supposed to call them. Some […]

$Math Mission$

Riders on a Math Mission

Sure, it’s got nice packaging, fancy electronics and a marketing campaign to back it up, but I bet this Math Mission game for the Leaptster Learning Game System isn’t nearly half as gnar as Radical Mathematical.

…and the Little People Asian Boy who rides it.

Up for auction we have rare and hard to find Fisher Price Skateboard and the Little People Asian Boy who rides it. Fisher-Price Little People are an iconic toy. They started out being constructed entirely out of wood in 1960, eventually adding plastic bits and ultimately ended up being molded out of plastic completely until […]
