GIVEAWAY: Win a Custom Green Lantern Mask from Haute Heroes!

by Howie Decker @HowardTheDeck

Last year we had the chance to catch up with Maria Palafox (@teenygeek). We were treated to a great conversation about video games, cosplay, LEGO, She-Ra and more. It was a good thing we caught her then, since things have gotten much busier for her. Palafox has opened her very own cosplay shop- Haute Heroes! […]

The 10 Best Jimmy Kimmel Tweets from Julie Bowen’s Account

by Howie Decker @HowardTheDeck

This week Julie Bowen appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live. The two made a bet: whoever won a foot race around the studio would take over the other’s Twitter account. Julie Bowen lost, and the world won. Kimmel took full advantage of piloting Bowen’s social media account. We happen to know firsthand that the real […]

Chart Tells You How To Create More Free Time

by Howie Decker @HowardTheDeck

Everyone would love some extra free time. How many items on your to-do list are forsaken because “there just aren’t enough hours in the day”? Frequently, we tell ourselves that the things we don’t get to do must not be that important, or we’d find a way to get them done. But what if […]

From Sexy Jedi to Surly NFL Coaches: UnderScoopFire’s Day Out

by Howie Decker @HowardTheDeck

I had a playdate! Well, two actually. Yesterday I was cordially invited to visit with two of my favorite websites. I did my best to be witty and clownish yet respectful and courteous. It’s a tough personality cocktail to maintain. Do me a solid and check out each site! (Even if you don’t read […]

Custom ‘Mike Tyson’s Punch-Out’ Action Figures are as Awesome as You’d Think

by Howie Decker @HowardTheDeck

It scares me to think about how much awesome stuff like this I missed out on before I joined Twitter. Credit to Battle Armor Joe (@sharepointjoe) for tweeting this Instagram pic from blackmajor: I did a little digging to try to nail down the original source, and found that our friend Rick Marshall […]

Mer-Man is Gonna Be My Gateway Drug

by Howie Decker @HowardTheDeck

Damn you Mer-man. Since my full-on toy renaissance in 2010, I’ve immersed myself in many of the old toy lines I grew up playing with. I’ve collected and re-collected some of the lines I loved, the figures I used to have and the ones I wanted but never got. I grew up in the […]

by Howie Decker @HowardTheDeck

It’s back! Before we start, if you haven’t seen the original UnderScoopFire Royal Rumble (let’s call it USF Rumble I) you must read it before proceeding!

No Bluth Reunion on the New Season of Arrested Development & Why Disney Should Take the Same Path with Star Wars

by Howie Decker @HowardTheDeck

There’s a report on Pajiba that gives Arrested Development fans some insight into the new season that debuts on Netflix this spring. From the article: “Arrested Development” is not exactly a full reunion of the cast, as each episode will focus on only one character. Of the 14 episodes, only Jason Bateman will appear in […]

The Greatest Thing to Happen in 1990: The Ultimate Warrior on The Arsenio Hall Show

by Howie Decker @HowardTheDeck

I honestly don’t know where to start. Children of the 80s, regardless of their level of WWF fandom, were aware of the Ultimate Warrior. He was an odd choice for a near-crossover star, making a few mainstream appearances and national advertising endorsements. For all of the flashy and specialized WWF Superstars of the day, […]

‘Baseball Card Vandals’ = The Funniest Thing You’ll See Today
