Hiatus

This is the second hiatus this fan site has had in 15 years.

I don’t know how to explain it without a long awkward series of reasons…so lets just skip that. :)

If there are any future updates, I will post them…you can subscribe to the rss feed to be notified of updates.
I hope you enjoy the site as it is.

Site Tweaks

If anything breaks on this site, you can be sure who’s to blame…
I’ve been tinkering about with the forum – minor improvements and modifications.
It’s not been that active, but I like to keep it around all the same.
We’ve had the member gallery bridged with it for a year or two, but I hadn’t managed to utilise it that effectively until lately. It can be viewed in the tabs at the bottom.

I was hoping to kick off a total site re-vamp this month…it’s just one of those things I would like to do, then reality comes along! This hamster layout is three years old.

Earthworm Jim Toys at Comic Con

New prototypes of Earthworm Jim toys and a plush Jim doll by Mezco Toys were showcased at this years Comic Con in San Diego.
They are said to be coming out later this year.

I think they look well sculpted and painted…the standing figure is modelled on an old video game cover by Michael Koelsh.

If I could give some opinion on my “dream” EWJ toy, it would be to make Jim look friendlier…more the way Doug TenNapel and Mike Dietz make him look – less grotesque or muscle bound! :)

Tommy Tallarico was visiting the con and took a couple pictures last Friday! (Rocket Worm Facebook) :)
