Top Cartoon Voices - Who are they?
Are you an animaniac? Crazy for cartoons? Well you probably have a great collection of Cartoon T-Shirts already (if not, why not?) but have you ever really thought about some of the voices behind your favourite animated characters?
Me neither, so I set off in search of some of my favourite characters and voices. Here's what I found....
Grandpa Huxtable was a Thundercat!
Between 1984 & 1992, Earle Hyman played Grandpa Russell Huxtable in The Cosby Show. Despite being a trombone playing, Hillman College graduate and a really bad buyer of sweaters in this popular sitcom he was also moonlighting as a humanoid warrior feline from outer space, Panthro.
Panthro was the resident mechanic in the cartoon Thundercats and was also the least clothed member after Snarf.
JIMBOOOOOOOOO!
Your brain does funny things. Its amazing what it picks up, stores & reacts to. Whilst going about my daily duties I must have subconciously noticed the Jimbo T-Shirts as I spent most of the day and the majority of that evening humming the Jimbo and the Jet-Sets theme tune and mumbling 'JIMBOOOOO!!' just like the air traffic controller at the end of the opening credits.
Well, if you've ever tried to get a song out of your head you will know its easier said than done but as I've learnt with this example, trying to forget a theme tune that only contains one word (Jimbo) is nothing short of a nightmare!!!
I have no idea how to avoid this slightly annoying situation happening again but one thing I do know is that I won't take browsing through our Cartoon T-Shirts so lightly from now on.
So I suppose the point to this blog is a friendly warning that shopping with TruffleShuffle.com can cause some serious feelings of Nostalgia. To prove my point, I dare you to watch the theme tune to Jimbo and the Jet-Set below and not hum it for the rest of your day!!
Funky In Punky!
Introducing Urban Species exciting new collaborations!
We are very proud to present two of Urban Species brand new collaborations, they have designed exciting new ranges with esteemed artist Sidney Maurer and iconic publication Life Magazine. Released together these fab new Urban Species T-Shirts celebrate famous Hollywood, Sports and Music icons as well as nostalgic 90's pop culture. I'll give a quick run down of these brand new tees.
Girls wanted to get with him, guys wanted to be him, Johnny Depp was the epitome of cool in the 80's and 90's (and still is in our opinion!). This awesome tee, celebrates this icon against a jazzy 90's background and is part of the new Life Magazine collection for Urban Species.
This great, new, vintage style tee from the Life Magazine collection for Urban Species celebrates the genius of one of America's greatest musicians, Johnny Cash who brought us such cult classics as, I Walk The Line and Ring Of Fire.
Will Smith was where is was at in the 80's and 90's. Not only was he hot, cool and funny, he had a starring role in US comedy Fresh Prince Of Bel Air and a penchant for rapping alongside Jazzy Jeff. What a treat this Urban Species tee is, from their Life Magazine collection, we are loving the 90's style design which shows Will off to a tee!
