This must have taken quite some time to make... a whirlwind tour of the wonderful world of Leopard. Nice.
No not toys made by the Birmingham based Capsule girls who put on great events like Supersonic, but toys from Japanese vending machines. Pingmag have done a great round up of the scene showcasing some of the best and strangest on offer.
Scroll down the article to see the “Don’t eat these! They are poisonous mushrooms!” range of toys.
“A collection of vintage logos from a
mid-70's edition of the book World of
Logotypes”
Head over to this Flickr set to see some truly great and inspiring logo work. This book reminds me very much of the books by Yasaburo Kuwayama. It's funny to see so many logos in this collection which remind the mind of logos created fairly recently.
[Edit: Thanks for the keen eye Tiago]
This is ACE! This is probably is an internet phenomenon already — if not, you saw it here first — and I got it from here...
PingMag once again come up with the goods — this time with a feature on New Graphic Design in China. Some utterly fantastic work, highly recommended. I’ve picked my faves below.


Finally got my hands on a Wii and Mario Kart Wii after holding out for months until the launch date. I'm a massive fan of Mario Kart and hammered the DS version to death. The Wii version has a more robust online play and some of the tracks are fantastic (Maple Leaf is my current fave).
So I throw down the gauntlet to any readers with a Wii and Mario Kart, my MK friend code is: 2148 8301 0963 — drop your MK friend code in the comments below and I'll see you on the highways of Mushroom City!
Pingmag have a nice collection of pretty fish bait. Ohhh the colours — I like to take reference from colour schemes from abstract sources like this.
Ha!! (Also via swissmiss)
Have a great weekend! :)
