The kaiju series continues! I prevailed in persuading Buffalo to make a Gamera hat companion for Godzilla, Ghidorah, Mothra, and King Kong. It was hard to photograph. You need to see it in person to fully appreciate its charm. All of the kaiju hats are in the Etsy store (links above). Gamera here. 🎵 Gamera is really neat. He is filled with turtle meat. We all love you Gamera! 🎵

Buffalo says this is the last in the kaiju series, but I'm campaigning for a Gamera hat. She doesn't want to do it because she's never seen a Gamera movie. Time to crack open that sweet MST3K Gamera deluxe tin. Anyhoo, behold the majesty that is Mothra (singing tiny twins not included). Remember the kaiju hat Buffalo finished a couple of months ago, Godzilla and King Ghidorah fighting on Mount Fuji? If not, scroll down to the previous blog post. Godzilla and Ghidorah account for one part of the MonsterVerse but we cannot forget the King. I am speaking of Kong, of course. Lest you think King Kong and Godzilla belong in different universes, Legendary Entertainment and Warner Bros. are in the midst of a shared universe franchise that includes both of them [films: Godzilla (2014), Kong: Skull Island (2017), Godzilla: King of the Monsters (2019), and the upcoming Godzilla vs. Kong (2021)]. Buffalo's Kong is old school. Instead of fighting a Japanese kaiju, he takes out his aggression on the Empire State Building. Behold! It has been ages since I blogged, but to be fair it's been a while since Buffalo made anything new. Now that she's been furloughed from her day job she's producing again. She has launched a new kaiju series of hats. It is still very much a work in progress, but I thought I'd share her work so far. First up, the guy we all know and love, Godzilla (or Gojira, if you prefer).
After crocheting Godzilla, Buffalo went to work on King Ghidorah, the Three-Headed Monster.  I love his wings.  But what can these two behemoths fight over? My laptop?  Nah. Mount Fuji!  Yes, that is a hat. Her original plan was to attach the kaiju securely to the hat, but they are so much fun to play with that now she's thinking of making them removable. What do you think?
Stay tuned for more. |
