The Weekly Retro Movie Rundown 250
Sweet home Alabama! Another weekend is here which means...... time for our Retro Movie Rundown!!
Drilling, welding, stitching and gluing our way to soap box building glory, we find ourselves dragging our Frankenstein's monster like creation to the top of our nearest and biggest hill. Pausing for a moment to take one final look at our creation in all it's glory, we'll then launch our way down the course, hitting ramps and nailing corners as we go. Will we beat the pack or will we just beat our creation into more parts then we began with? Only time will tell. Chocks away!
Have a happy retro weekend!

Happy Video Games Day! Level Up Your Game With Our Top Gamer Treats...
Happy Video Games Day everyone!! Whether you're a fan of Nintendo, PlayStation, X-Box, Sega, mobile gaming or even retro classics like Atari or the Commodore, today is the day to shut those curtains tight, stock up on snacks and game the day away!
In celebration I'm going to list the favourite gaming moments I've had throughout my life and would love to hear some of your own!
This is where it all started, my first ever video game on the NES! A truly iconic game that has stood the test of time, I'll never forget discovering the Mushroom Kingdom for the first time. Mario is still going strong too, every one of his games is almost guaranteed to be an exciting play!
The very first Pokemon game on the Game Boy! Everyone had their own favourite starter (mine was Squirtle) and who can forget catching their very first Pikachu!? There were 151 to catch in this first game (did anyone manage to get a Mew?) which seems like a tiny amount compared to the 800+ there are now!
The Weekly Retro Movie Rundown 249
Crisps and dip at the ready! It's another retro movie filled weekend folks. Let's tuck in...
Like many of you retro movie lovers in the land, we spend a lot of our time waiting for a special delivery. Sometimes it's some classic retro 80s clothing, sometimes it's that new tap you're had to replace (exciting!), however sometimes, juuuust sometimes it's something a whole lot more amazing and wondiferous! When it arrives, you're so excited and relieved that you completely forget all the drama, heartache and frustration that came in the moments before. Being completely overwhelmed with emotions and joy at the sight of your shiny new thing and what it will mean. Some deliveries are good, some a great and some are simply the best things ever...
Have a happy retro weekend!

The Raccoons Turn 32! Stay Tuned For A New Look Return...
Two huge bits of new here for you peeps, firstly the absolute legendary retro 80s cartoon The Raccoons turns 32 years old today (yes... this makes us feel old too), and secondly, it's back!!
Yep, during our recent interview with The Raccoons creator Kevin Gillis, we discovered that he is busy working away on a Raccoons comeback and they are creating all new episodes for us to binge on the floor in front of the TV in our PJs with a bowl of cereal.... just like old times. Exciting!
With a slightly new and more modern look using the latest animation technology, The Raccoons are set to hit our screens once more with a crisp, bold new look which aims to still capture the magic of the classic show we all know and love.
What's more, Kevin kindly send us some snaps of the initial designs for this return and we couldn't resist sharing them with you guys. Let's take a look!
Just from this logo of the mighty Evergreen Forest, we can see that things are looking bolder, brighter, and more crisp. Moving with the times, modern animation allows shows to be made much quicker and with much more dynamic movements.
