We Love Fine unveiled it’s new Adventure Time Collection today by telling the story of how Princess Bubblegum invites the royalty of OO to her birthday party. Alas! Peppermint Butler has made off with the birthday pie!

Springing to life from the quirky fashion geek-torial, are the stars of this new collection, the fun and fantastic sweaters and knits.

Being giant fans of ‘Adventure Time’ we were more than honored to be asked to represent Princess Bubblegum and Marceline. We’re excited to bring you some exclusive behind the scenes footage from the entire shoot:

Cosplay Round Up: Anime Expo 2015

July 7, 2015 0 Comments read CONVENTIONS, COSPLAY

Another year of Anime Expo flew by, closing it’s 24th year.
As we’re coming down from our AX high, and gearing up for San Diego Comic Con, here’s a cool round up of cosplayers and cosplay gatherings we saw this year.

This year there was an abundance of love for classic shoujo manga like Sailor Moon, classic CLAMP Series, League of Legends. We also appreciated the abundance of sport anime cosplay, and the funny memes.

Many cosplayers were also able to make use of the pre-made photo sets that AX brings back every year, as well as the cosplay repair stations.

League of Legends – Battle Bunny Katarina

League of Legends – Battle Bunny Nidalee and Jinx

BECOME THE PARTY WOLF: SDCC2014 List of Where to Get Crunk Like a Nerd Rock Star

July 20, 2014 4 Comments read ADVENTURES, COMICS, CONVENTIONS, EVENTS, SAN DIEGO COMIC CON

There are three types of San Diego Comic Con attendees:

1. Pokemon Masters: “I GOTTA CATCH ALL OF THE RARE POKEYMANS/LIMITED GOODS/ COLLECTIBLE ITEMS!!” You’ll see these fine folk lined up in the convention hall awaiting their preciousssss. They probably don’t talk in ALL CAPS but.. they’re THINKING IN ALL CAPS.

2. Die Hards (aka Bruce Willys): “I must attend all pertinent panels, meetings signings, and appearances of the show/series/comic/subculture that I am into. Otherwise, I CANNOT CALL MYSELF A TRUE FAN.”

3. Party Wolves: “Where. Da. Party. At.” Yeah, we sort of care about the other stuff, but mostly we wanna party with our nerdy selves.

Although we here at Defective Geeks are an equal mix of all of these types of nerdy personas, this post will focus on the most obscure of the three… LOS PARTY LOBOS EXTREMOS.

Comic Con is all about fandoms, but it’s also about getting to party with your best nerd pals, and hopefully scoring some free refreshment all while rubbing elbows with celebrities from the series/title/films/books you love. While the list below certainly isn’t comprehensive, it’s definitely refined down to the ones you can actually expect to get into with a wee bit of effort! Remember to pace yourselves, party animals. Thursday has the most parties, and Saturday the least, which means the chances of you maxing out and tossing cookies before the week really gets started are high! BEWARE THE PARTY FOUL. Party responsibly, and bring water with you EVERYWHERE.

And if you wanna know where WE are during the con, we will be all over social media shenanigans, party info, and embarrassing photos:
