    A great combination of three of my favourite things. Chucks, Grim Fandango, and You Am I.

    Kotaku you are far too kind to show my shoes! I always beam with pride when they grace this blog.


    Kotaku readers, you to are far too kind for your comments. Really like the opportunity to talk to people about them.


    I won't give my site a plug 9not sure if that's the done thing?) but my shoes go under the name KyozoKicks, so with a quick google search you should find me & my shoes!


    Another pair will be on the way soon no doubt, let's just say the (tri) force is strong with them!

    With bony hands I hold my partner
    On soul-less feet we cross the floor
    The music stops as if to answer
    An empty knocking at the door.
    It seems his skin was sweet as mango
    When last I held him to my breast
    But now we dance this grim fandango
    And will four years before we rest.

    Hands down, the shape of the head is what took me the longest to get right. It seems to be an ongoing problem with Grim art work! If I recall the GF fan made models (which were excellent) had an odd shaped head in the end!

    @Nick Tonks: Imo, I don't think it's anyone fault other than the original artists. Grim Fandango had a very original art-direction.

    Props for picking my favorite costume for the Manny.

    There's a song for my younger beginning korean students in a song book called The Purple Sneaker Song.

    Only in that picture i don't count "four little purple sneakers" like the lyrics say.

    I count four...in my living room. Two low-top purple suede All-Stars, and two hi-top purple leather chucks that say "PurpleDave" down the back. I don't know that they really qualify as "little", though...

    Normally game-themed sneakers are ugly as sin.


    I can't decide if these are an exception or not, but oddly enough I still want to wear them either way.

    The question I want to know is:


    If you disagree with someone, do these shoes give you the opportunity to kick them in the face?

    I am normally not into this kind of thing, and would never dream of wearing something so gaudy, but I really like these. The images just seem to be fantastic for sneakers.


    If I had these I would place them somewhere in my apartment on some sort of pedestal...as art!
