Gremlins Book & Record Stories On YouTube!
Hey Folks!
Growing up, I was extremely fond of Book & Record sets. For those who are unfamiliar, Book & Records were usually children’s storybooks that came with records of someone reading the story to you. Just like the label says. Book and Record.
There were Book & Records for everything imaginable in the 80’s, and into the 90’s there was a considerable amount of book and cassettes as well.
Youtube user Greedo7372000 has posted all 5 Gremlins Book & Records for your enjoyment. They don’t feature the art or storybook, but the audio should hopefully be enough for you to get a sample of what they were like.
Ahh, the snapping and popping of vinyl records. Those were great sounds…

Rambling Stuffs, Fan Submissions and Win Gremlins on DVD!
Hey folks, hope everyone had a safe and fun Christmas or whatever you may celebrate, free of being given vicious little monsters for presents.
I have been running 
around like a Gremlin with its head cut off between work and taking care of things around the house, a
nd just got knocked out of duty by a killer cold. While I am sure you are not interested in my health status and hyperbolically imminent demise, just thought you might like to know why I haven’t updated in a month.
However, Friend Of Gremlins Online, The Black Nerd, Andre Meadows, once again comes to the rescue and saves me from
actually having to post content, and instead show off his awesome videos! This time he is giving away 4 copies of Gremlins on DVD!
Just watch the video to find out how to win! It seems pretty easy, and I would love someone from Gremlins Online to win…I mean come on, you guys are the most awesome gremlins fans out there so you should naturally get free DVDs and stuff for simply existing. Plus we are all keeping the hope alive for a Gremlins 3 in the future so that right there is more than enough qualification to win DVDs and books and lotteries and everything else neat out there.
Apparently the cold meds are kicking in and I am obviously rambling on and on, just maybe making a little less sense than I usually do, so I should probably end this post. So of course, I won’t. (More info plus stuff about “fan submissions” after the jump)
Gremlins In Los Angeles?
Hey everyone!
A Friend Of Gremlins Online, Andre “The Black Nerd ” Meadows just put up his newest Black Nerd Comedy video, which is about one night around Midnight in Los Angeles, as well as his thoughts on Gremlins….and where they may lurk!
Check it out and let me know what you think!
Jun Planning awesomeness!
Hey Folks,
As many of you know, I work at a collectibles store in southern Wisconsin, and we have a very active online business as well as a local retail store. (Our online shop is at http://www.ultimatetshirts.com) We recently got these Jun Planning Statues in stock and after taking a peek in the boxes, I had to put them up!
These are produced by Craftlabel in the states, but are licensed Gremlins merchandise designed by the one-and-only Jun Planning co in Japan! Stripe is about 12″ tall, and frankly I would not want to wake up to him on my dresser, since it probably is the most realistic sculpt I have ever seen of a Gremlin. I think Stripe’s candy is a little bit oversized but it still looks rad as hell.
Gizmo is adorable, about 6″ tall with his pillow, and really a nice display piece.
They don’t have any points of articulation, as they are statues posed intentionally meant to convey emotion and in Stripe’s case, malevolence.
Speaking personally, the Stripe statue is what I hope my wife has stowed away in a closet somewhere for Christmas. She knows how much I love our green-skinned friends.
Part of the reason I am posting this is because apparently some of our visitors haven’t seen these statues before, and also because if Gremlins stuff starts being a huge seller at our store, I can probably convince my boss to get a ton more neat and possibly exclusive stuff in stock! (Things like T-shirt designs, hats, stuff like that)
Anyways I will talk to the boss man later today to see if I can get a discount for you Gremlins Online users as a “Thank You” for being super awesome and helping make this site as great as it is.
I normally don’t post sales type stuff on the site, as I don’t want to give you guys a bad site or something, but as I personally am working there and I have seen our customer comments, I think I can safely put the Gremlins Online! Pod of approval on ultimatetshirts.com. Besides, if anything went wrong, I can go yell at the shipping team myself for you guys.
I don’t think we will be getting restocked on these before christmas, so whatever we have in the warehouse is what we have. Feel free to print this out and add it to your christmas wishlist!
Take care folks and remember, stay out of the light!
Third 3G Poster unveiled! Nostalgia abounds!
Hey folks I just got an email from the folks at the 3G Art Show and they have released the third poster for the event running September 3-22 in Los Angeles, CA.
For those who missed the last post on the show, the Autumn Society & Gallery is putting on an art gallery featuring art that was inspired by three iconic 80’s movies. Specifically, Ghostbusters, Gremlins and Goonies.
All three of these films captured the imagination of audiences, young and old alike and still have a strong presence in Pop Culture to this day. Of course the thing that caught my eye was the Gremlins portion, however I have a soft spot in my hollowed-out shell of a heart that is reserved for Ghostbusters and Goonies. Growing up in the 80’s as Hulk Hogan reminded me to Say My Prayers and Eat My Vitamins, Gremlins and Ghostbusters for the most part were the two films that enamored me more than anything. They were movies that took the subject matter seriously, and played it straight while having humor intertwined with frightening or creepy scenes. Goonies was never as huge of an influence on me personally, but it did have a special slot on my VHS shelf dedicated to that childhood dream of perilous adventure.
(more blogging and pictures and art and stuff past the break! Read more! Be enthralled!)
