Kirby and the Rainbow Curse, in all it’s claymation glory, is coming out in 3 days. Pre-order it now on the eShop and it will pre-download so you can play at 12:01am.
Above you can see some of the development of the clay figures and sets, which the team scanned in and used as the basis for the games 3D models. I hope they kept the fingerprints in there. Then I can pause the game, steal a fingerprint, go to Tokyo, break in, and steal all the secrets.
The Iron Giant Deluxe Figure by Mondo will be available for pre-order starting tomorrow (January 22th 2015).

Seattle Dog Figures Out Buses, Starts Riding Solo To The Dog Park
Seattle’s public transit system has had a ruff go of things lately, and that has riders smiling.
You see, of the 120 million riders who used the system last year, one of them is actually a dog. Seattle’s KOMO-TV reports the 2-year-old black Labrador mix, named Eclipse, has become a regular fixture on the city’s D-Line after she figured out how to ride the bus alone to the dog park.
Find out how this pup learned how to ride the bus by herself here.
