Toys that are so, so ugly, yet I can't look away

New toys by Medicom, priced at $100 each. They're compelling in their hideousness, and maybe a little too reminiscent of blackface?

Wikipedia explains:
The World Of Golden Eggs is a collection of non-linear sketches, set in the American-style, fictional town of Turkey's Hill. Each episode is about 15 minutes in length and is broken down into the "main story" as broadcast by the town's fictional TV station, "THBC"(Turkey's Hill Broad Casting) and broken up by fictitious adverts and concluded with an English lesson based on content from the episode's main story line. The main story is usually subtitled in English. The subtitles try to reflect the tone of the dialogue which can lead to strange or grammatically incorrect subtitles due to its comedic nature and the use of non-conventional Japanese.

Each story is loosely linked to a main story, but is presented from the different perspectives of the vast cast of characters.

The show has a musical influence, with many of the characters involved in music in some way. Some of the music from the show has even appeared on MTV and has been the basis for the video games based on the show.
It was adapted into games for the Wii and DS. And there's lots of videos at Youtube.

When Mickey Mouse tried to kill himself






Genuine comic strips featuring a suicidal Mickey Mouse. This is currenltly featured at Reddit, but I saw that Comic Book Legends featured them a while back. Interestingly, the CBL article recommended visiting Barnacle Press to see more of the strips, but they had been removed because "even though those strips were terrific, in the Public Domain, and easily the most popular material on the site, we didn’t really feel comfortable with the attention they garnered from sites that linked to them. We didn’t want to be known as the novelty site where you can see Mickey try to kill himself!"
