Somebody Set Up Us The Bob-omb. posted on November 21, 2006 10:00 AM by rethwyll.
With the all the Consu-kids whipping themselves into indie rock (with glasses!) frenzies over the Nintendo Wii, we are reminiscing fondly about the weeks and weeks of gameplay that we spent on the old-skool Nintendo game consoles. Oh, those sweet, simple, 16-bit days, making our way through level after level of Doki Doki Pan...uhhhh, we mean Super Mario 2. Oh the repetitive stress injuries we developed dodging Birdos and Shy Guys and, our personal favorite, the adorable but deadly Bob-ombs. We loved grabbing these guys and running about, boinking adversaries in the noggin with their little round explosive compatriots. Wouldn't it be great if we could dispose of our rivals like this in real life? With these crocheted Bob-omb dolls, we can at least give it a shot! Maybe we'll get lucky and their fuses will poke our arch-nemesis in the eye, giving us enough time to bound over him and into the plant tube in the break room.
