Our Amazing New Spongebob Squarepants Guitars Are Music To Our Ears

If you didn't know already, it's pretty much a crime not to love Spongebob!

Ever since he popped along back in 1999 (can you believe it!?) we've been addicted to this cheeky and oh-so innocent sponge from Bikini Bottom along with his pet snail, Gary and of course best friend Patrick Star....the starfish.

You never quite know what Spongebob and co will be up to next, but one thing's for sure, it won't be anything normal and they'll be doing their best to 'accidentally' annoy their neighbour Squidward! Love it!

With so much to love from this cult show, we're always on the hunt for new and exciting ways to show off our love and pick up some cool new Spongebob Merchandise which is what we've just done with our fab new range of Spongebob guitars and musical accessories!

Exclusive New 'I Survived Jurassic Park' T-Shirts!

Just when you thought our exclusive range of Jurassic Park T-Shirts couldn't fossil-bly get any better, we've only gone and done it!

Inspired by one of the most iconic theme parks ever, Jurassic Park was home to some of the world's most dangerous and deadly creatures including a whole host of genetically re-created Dinosaurs from prehistoric times, all of which were the brainchild of an elderly billionaire philanthropist. Pretty standard stuff right?

As we're sure all you retro movie lovers will know, during one of the parks tours, a huge storm hits fictional Isla Nublar, an islet located off Costa Rica. To make matter worse, their geeky computer programmer, Dennis Nedry who has been bribed to steal dinosaur embryos disables all security systems in the park to allow him to gain access and steal what he needs. Things quickly turn from bad to worse as all the ancient beasts begin to break free and run amok with only freedom and hunting on their minds!

.

One of the biggest films of the 90s, this Steven Spielberg classic will certainly always have a home in our personal movie collections and now even more love from our exclusive range of movie T-Shirts!

TruffleShuffle Insider: Meet…Michelle

Here it is! Working our way through all the lovely names and faces of the TruffleShuffle dream team, we’ve been taking a little time each month to put one unsuspecting victim member of staff in the spotlight as we fire a whirlwind of questions at them and see what spins back out.

This time it’s the turn of the voice of TruffleShuffle Michelle to take on our rapid fire questions as we chat to her and share with you guys who she is, what she does here and what rocks her world.... other than cool tshirts of course! Hold on to your hats folks!

What do you do here at Truffle Towers?

I take care of Customer service at TruffleShuffle. This also includes dealing with Ebay, Amazon and all other projects we dig our claws into! I also share the responsibility of describing all the exciting items we sell on the website. The next time you read a description on the site, you should say it in a Scottish accent...because I'm Scottish - so it makes sense, obviously!
