Inspired by Darren Rawlins, Our Favourite Retro Cars Transformed!
Howdy TruffleShufflers! This week we found a cracking little Tumblr page from the very talented Darren Rawlins. Heâs done a series of cartoons that takes the cars from some iconic retro shows and imagines what theyâd look like as TRANSFORMERS!
Have a look at his work here.... darrenrawlings.tumblr.com whilst we run down our Top 5 Transformers from Retro Shows Inspired by Darren Rawlins!
.
1) First up, itâs a TruffleShuffle favourite, The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtlesâ Party Wagon! Built by Donatello, this awesome van came with all kinds of handy accessories, including missiles, breakaway doors, a radio broadcaster and parts of it could even be used as a ramp to get the Turtles out of trouble! We think the Transformer version would be pretty badass, especially if it had a few karate lessons from Splinter!
2) In a close second, we just had to pick the Batmobile. Itâs been through dozens of crazy incarnations and hosted a vast array of mental weaponry but Darren has opted for the red-detailed one from the 60s TV show and Tim Burtonâs sleek 1989 entry. Now, the TV show Batmobile displayed more gadgets than you can shake a batarang at in its 2 year run on our screens, but Burtonâs incarnation famously included grappling hooks to scale walls, a bulletproof finish and one stonking great afterburner at the back. That makes for one pretty terrifying Transformer if you ask us, letâs hope heâs not a Decepticon...

Sadly! Gone are the days of big baggy jeans, chokers, denim shirts and biker shorts....well for most of us anyways!
BUT do not fear, while a lot of the big trends from the decade have long gone, there's still plenty of ways to show your love for these amazing times with some retro 90s inspired tees!
Like a lot of the classic flicks from the 80s, it seems there are a whole list of amazing films and TV shows from the decade that gave us the Spice Girls and hit show F.R.I.E.N.D.S.
Take a trip down the not so distant past with some of our very best selling 90s T-Shirts...
Certainly one of the greatest chick flicks of the 90's, Clueless too the world by storm as we entered the weird and wonderful world of Cher, Tai and Dionne. This cult classic was a lively adaptation of 1816 Jane Austen novel 'Emma' and featured the lives of the ultra-rich at Beverly Hills high school.
Only Fools and Horses Sport Relief Special This Friday!
Can you 'Adam an Eve' it?! Get ready to 'Giraffe' like never before as one of the most iconic and loved sitcoms which originally ran from 1981 to 2003 is back for a one off ten minute special this week!
You heard it right folks, with a whole host of the original cast hitting the small screen as their classic characters once again, as well as some special gusts, this year's Sport Relief if shaping up to be one of the most historic yet!
Over 10 years on from the shows last episode (amazing to think!), this latest script will focus around Del Boys birthday and promises to be packed with lashing of the original humour and personalities as ever before. We can't wait!
Comic Relief CEO, Kevin Cahill, had this to say about the return:
"Only Fools and Horses is one of the greatest sitcoms of all time. It's incredible that those involved with the show since the very beginning have come together for this Sport Relief special and we're especially touched that Jim and Dan Sullivan wrote the sketch together using some of their dad John's old notes. To be able to record a new Only Fools and Horses sketch is in itself very special but for David Beckham, who is a huge fan of the show, to be part of this is truly brilliant."
