Watchmen Rorschach Beanie Mask (click to enlarge)

I don’t know if this Watchmen Rorschach Beanie Mask is “cool” or just plain “freaky’, but either way I had to post it.

Rorschach is easily one of the coolest super-hero characters to ever grace the comic/film world. The character was created by Watchmen writer Alan Moore and artist Dave Gibbons.  He wears this mask which displays morphing inkblots.

I’ve read the inkblots are said to reflect his emotions, although I’ve also read the inkblots are randomly generated based on the shapes used in the psychological “Rorschach inkblot test”, a test where subjects have their perceptions of what they see in inkblots analyzed.

Gandalf the Grey's cloak from 'The Lord of the Rings'

This is mighty expensive but a mighty awesome piece of movie collectible clothing – a made to order exact replica of Gandalf the Grey’s cloak from the original Lord of the Rings.

It is made by Stansborough, who provided the material for the original cloak for The Lord Of The Rings.  It took over 10 years to create the special wool breed of unique grey sheep known as the ‘Stansborough Grey’ and now they are the only kind in the world.  The ‘Stansborough Grey’ sheep wool is spun and then woven on 1890’s looms at the Stansborough Weaving Mill in Wellington.

Comes in three lengths, S, M and L with a 6-inch (15 cm) difference in length – the cloak pin in the image isn’t included.

Price: NZD $1,906.67.

Wolverine's Jacket from the first 'X-Men' Movie

Before I say more, yes I’m aware this photo of Wolverine is from X-Men Origins: Wolverine and not the first X-Men movie.  After searching and not finding an image quick enough I decided it really didn’t matter too much.

To be clear, this collectible is modeled on Wolverine’s Jacket from X-Men and not the one in X-Men Origins: Wolverine.  But it’s close nonetheless.

Now that we’ve cleared that up, this replica jacket is advertised as having been “extensively researched and replicated using only the finest authentic materials as worn in X-Men, the first movie of the blockbuster trilogy” and as “the only jacket replicating all details and approved by both Marvel and 20th Century Fox.”
