You Need Nickelodeon!

Have you got fond memories of rushing home from school and slumping in front of the amazing kids channel Nickelodeon for hours on end?  Or maybe you even appreciated the finer points of it's cartoons as an adult, like I do now!  Either way, we've got a treat for you to help remember those halcyon days!

First up we have the deliciously dark Invader Zim!  This series was about an extraterrestrial named Zim from the Planet Irk, and his ongoing mission to destroy the planet Earth, which (luckily for us) never seemed to go to plan!  Our tee features his quirky and loveable robot servant GIR, who was the ultimate fan favourite from the show.

Next up we have the awesomely bright and colourful show Rocko's Modern Life which aired between 1993 and 1996.  This show was based around the surreal adventures of a wallaby named Rocko, and his life in the city of O-Town.  Originally from Australia, it showed the hardships of Rocko adjusting to the American way of life!  Our brand new T-Shirt focuses on Rocko and his faithful dingodog Spunky.

The Weekly Retro Movie Rundown 12!

Oh my stars! The days get longer and the weeks get shorter but the weekend remains the same - full of  nostalgic cinematic retroactive joyfulness!

We totally enjoyed “Raiders Of The Lost Ark” last weekend so we’re dead happy to see that “Temple Of Doom” is on this weekend. There’s a real mixed bag of treats in store including a randy British spy, giant green people, an alien and the Batman, “Ever dance with the devil in the pale moon light?” now I love Batman but I still don’t know what that line means or why I remember it, anyone help me out with this?!

Have a happy retro Weekend Folks :-)

Review your recent purchase for a chance to win £50!

With the end of the month approaching - we're looking forward to reading all the amazing reviews gathered over the month of July!

The review section of the website is a great way to leave feedback on a product, provide new customers with first hand experience of our customer service and delivery times.

It really couldn't be easier - all you have to do is pop your funny thinking cap on, head over to TruffleShuffle - find the product you wish to review and tell us all about your shopping experience with us.

Lst months winner bagged herself a £50 gift voucher by telling us about her purchase of the (incredibly popular) Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Backpack!

''This is one of the best purchases I have ever made. I've always loved the TMNT. I love the facts that it's strong and I can fit my macbook in it! For me fitting my macbook in a bag to go on holiday is an essential, I can't go a day without the internet (guilty). Also my kitten loves chilling in it. I looked for this back pack everywhere and I only saw US online stores selling them, so I went on truffle shuffle (which was my first time visiting the site) and I was so amazed by all the cool stuff that you guys were selling, I was literally drooling on my keyboard... When I saw you guys were selling the back pack I did a flip in the air and slid down a rainbow on a unicorn (true story) and I bought it straight away. I was inspired to buy this back pack when I saw LMFAO's Party Rock Anthem and Jenna Marbles videos, I was like "That's a cool back pack I want to buy one" so that's what I obviously did :) The service was amazing and quick, only took two days. I also realised that Truffle Shuffle's location is in Bristol which is where I live! Because of the amazing challenge I plan on buying more stuff from Truffle Shuffle. I have my eyes on a Darth Vader t-shirt (Fun fact: My grandad was good friends with David Prowse aka Darth Vader) and a hat for my magical pet unicorn. I sent a bunch of links to the truffle shuffle store to my friend through facebook and she loves the store and wants to buy everything. 5 stars ***** Thanks for my Ninja Turtle Back Pack Truffle shuffle!''

The Weekly Retro Movie Rundown 9!

It seems like this summer it’s almost impossible to get away from watching some form of sporting event, like the agony of watching England play in the euro’s, Wimbledon’s upon us this weekend and in the not so distant future the Olympics start in case you missed that bloke you never met running down your street carrying a torch! So, like a fat kid avoiding P.E I’ve faked a note from our mother excusing us from any physical activity and we fully expect to get away with it too. If you would like to join us on the proverbial side lines we have a mean packed lunch full of  gooey retro goodness and creamy nostalgia to get your movie loving fangs stuck into. Hope you enjoy!

Have a happy retro weekend :-)
