My friend just told me about these, which I think are thoroughly fabboo!
For anyone who hasn't played Little Big Planet, Sackboy is your little character and you can dress him up in a variety of outfits. Every now & then Sony release new patches for LBP which provide new outfits/accessories for Sackboy, along with a few in-game-stickers & other levels for the game. In the past there have been patches for Metal Gear Solid 4 characters, and even the Ghostbusters. Yesterday the Watchmen became available...
What you get are the outfits for Silk Spectre II, Rorschach, Nite Owl II & Ozymandias. What? No Dr Manhattan?! Well, this is a kids game! But it's also really easy to create a blue coloured naked Sackboy and use one of the stickers to give him the hydrogen marking on his forehead.
I can imagine a lot of hardcore Alan Moore fans growing outraged by this. To them I mean no offence when I say 'lighten up'. We've had Watchmen coffee & blue condoms so I'm sure Alan Moore is beyond caring, and this is a really REALLY fun game to play! I hope you like these too...
And just because it's fun, here is machinima.com's rendition of the Watchmen film using home-made Sackboys (not these that you can buy... they were clever enough to make this months ago)
