Whenever the great movie gods reveal and amazing new adventure from one of the top superheroes, it's a pretty big deal right? We'll imagine getting to see something from the likes of Batman, Superman AND Wonder Woman all rolled into one full throttle, action-packed adventure! Imagine no more because this is reality!

Now... this is probably no huge surprise to many of you (unless you've been living underground for the last few years....if so...welcome back! The Kardashians are still a thing and Leo finally bagged an Oscar), but perhaps one of THEEE most anticipated films of recent times is just days away and we're pretty gosh darn excited!

So what's it all about?? Well.... fearing the actions of Superman are left unchecked, Batman takes on the man of steel, while the world wrestles with what kind of a hero it really needs. With Batman and Superman at each others throats, a new threat known as Doomsday, created by Lex Luthor might force them to put aside their differences to help save Metropolis. Take a peep at this trailer for a slice of the action.

So! Are you ready? Here at Truffle Towers, to help us get into the swing of things and make sure we're looking the part for our staff cinema trip, we've been feasting on all our latest and greatest Superhero TShirts and accessories. Check out some of our favourite items from this huge range....

Now when it comes to talking about classic or iconic cars of the world (which we probably do more than we'd like to admit), it's near impossible without eventually uttering the name of one of the biggest motoring companies in the whole wide world, Volkswagen.

Creating some of the most recognised and revered vehicles ever to exist, VW have certainly made their mark on almost everyone in the land, whether you've owned on of their classics or you know someone who does/did. Some of their finest work so far has come in the form of the classic Campervan and the super-cool Beetles which have gained a cult level of following since their were first produced.

Always looking for funky new ways to show off our quirky interests, we've just taken stock of some simply amazing new Volkswagen Duvet sets from brand Ashley Wilde which are just about as awesome as things get. Even if we do say so! Take a peep....

As a lot of you movie fans in the land will know, many films are good, some are truly great, but even fewer reach the level of cult classic. Top Gun is one such film.

Released back in 1986, (which despite what we might actually think is a little more than fifteen years ago.... scary), Top Gun has risen to become a true crowning glory of 80s cinema with its action-packed fighter jet scenes, heart tugging story of loss and struggle, one of the best soundtracks ever and....yes....sure the odd topless volleyball and locker room scenes. Well it was the 80s.

Here at TruffleShuffle, Top Gun has been on of our true staples and we've stocked a huge range of exclusive Top Gun TShirts for ...ooooh... well, longer than we'd like to remember. Always looking to up our game, we've been busy once again creating some exclusive new Maverick designs which are sure to tickle your fashion taste-buds. Take a flyby and check them out below....

1. It was almost a failure

Now this might come as a shock, but back when this game was first released, multiplayer was relatively new. Launching into arcades, the concept of playing another human rather then just the AI didn't instantly catch on. However after a fair few weeks and good word of mouth, competition between players became a big deal and still is today.
