Newish! The Onell Design Glyos OSM Cthulhu-Nautilus Rlyehzoth is really great, and if there wasn't a beautiful metallic red version with blue I'd say it was the best flavor of this figure. So you'll want both. So read on, and come back tomorrow for more!

Via Columbus Circle: 8-Bit Rhythm Land for Famicom and 16-Bit Rhythm Land for Mega Drive. They're not cheap as such, and a few importers are stocking them.

Famicom (NES) is about $45, while Mega Drive (Genesis) is about $53. And wouldn't you know it, there's a trailer! There aren't a lot of new 16bit games, so when we see them, we post them.

It seems they're also making a Super Famicom to GameBoy Color adapter. If that isn't enough, CES is going on in Vegas right now - Hyperkin announced a HDTV Zapper, and there may be other weird retro game things announced. Some of which might even come out. I'm looking at you, Ultra Game Boy.

Via Instagram: 16bit.com on Instagram by Adam Pawlus. Right now it's gratuitous toy photos and some shots when I'm driving around town as I get the hang of this thing. I didn't have a GameBoy Camera when I was a kid - but I did pick up a couple of them recently, and here we are.

Can you do this with a filter on your phone? Probably. But I've got GameBoys and cameras and we're doing it the hard way.

Mini Figure Militia has Oozarian Green OMFG Series 1 and Mordles figure packs and the prices ain't bad. Given inflation with indie figures, $12 for the formerly $10 series 1 of OMFG is a bargain - and $14 for 10 Mordles is no slouch either.

Both are strongly recommended if you don't already have the molds in other colors. The pictures look great!

Via MyGrodd: Imaginext Blind Bag Series 12 May Have Made an Appearance! Five new-to-you figures are on display, including Adventure People Clawtron, a building robot inspired by Big, some sort of animal mascot, a superhero/bicyclist type, and Fran.

It's assumed this is series 12 - there aren't a lot of other wacky Imaginext themeless sets coming to market, and it's not inconsistent with the previous motifs we've seen in this line. There may be a sixth figure to be revealed, or these may be something else entirely. Hail, Clawtron.
