Okay okay. I promise (I think) that this is the last Rock Band post I'll do (for a while). Remember how when the Wii first came out everyone got their respective undergarments in a twist because of the wildly customizable Mii's? Imagine Mii's but with more cowbell and you've got the Rock Band rock star generator.
With a humongous range of hairstyles, outfits, shoes, accessories, and tattoos, each typically available in any color that you could possibly want, you can create really crazy looking rock star identities to serve as your virtual vehicle to Rockdom. While the form of the characters are relatively simple, their body structures maintaining a similar cartooney proportion to a lot of Jamie Hewlett's characters, the style and musical sensibility you want to evoke in your character has such a large range of possibilities. In other words, its a lot of fun.

I bought a new toy today from Kid Robot. I purchased the just released figurine of Noodle from Gorillaz, one of my most favorite cartoon characters ever. She's small and hardcore and kawaii at the same time. It was a great purchase, and I got a sweet bag. We'll call it an early birthday gift to myself. Fair enough, right?
