And you call yourself an Apple fanboy? Dressing up like a mutton-chopped Steve jobs (true to life!) while your buddy tromps about in a cyborg suit comprised of vintage Mac parts — that’s showing your fandom.
The photo was snapped in Chongqing, China, but other details have been elusive. Were they cosplaying for a con? Was this an impromptu tribute to the late Apple CEO? Am I the only one that thinks the cyborg looks like Kanti from FLCL? Check out the full image of the dynamic duo below. [MIC Gadget via Cult of Mac via Geekosystem]

How on earth do you make a robot that fights with a bass guitar so hard to watch?

Saturday, February 11, 2012 at 2:18 AMProbably because it’s more about Naotas coming of age and a parody of previous Gainax robot titles than a serious show about robots fighting.
But than again I may be a bit biased, it is my second favourite show after G1 Transformers.
