Creature Comforts Figurine- Pickles The Dog
The bad news you won't find these in any stores except eBay. The good news is you can order them from the UK - there's a site called The Prezzy Shop that sells this figurine (along with others from the show). You can buy Pickles for about $14.00 U.S. + shipping. If that doesn't work, try aadrmarket.com's Creature Comforts shop, which has it for $10.00 + shipping.

HOTTER AND FACTORY ROLL OUT ANKLE INJURY
Here's an intricate take on pixelation from London-based director Wade Shotter, formerly a freelance illustrator and agency AD now repped by Factory Films in the UK and Fish 'n' Clips downunder. The track is "Ankle Injury" by Fujiya & Miyagi and the animation comes courtesy of Aukland's versatile Yukfoo. The band's previous video by Brighton animation studio Blunt74 was posted on Feed here. And how, you may ask, did I find that previous post so fast? Check out the new "Search FEED" function in the right column.
