A new Pulp Alley gang, courtesy of Jonathan Coulton
« on: March 23, 2015, 12:21:13 AM »
Welcome to my secret lair on Skullcrusher Mountain




I hope that you've enjoyed your stay so far



I see you've met my assistant Scarface
His appearance is quite disturbing
But I assure you he's harmless enough
He's a sweetheart, calls me master
And he has a way of finding pretty things and bringing them to me



Oh, and I'm so into you
But I'm way too smart for you
Even my henchmen think I'm crazy
I'm not surprised that you agree
If you could find some way to be
A little bit less afraid of me
You'd see the voices that control me from inside my head
Say I shouldn't kill you yet



I made this half-pony, half-monkey monster to please you
But I get the feeling that you don't like it
What's with all the screaming?



You like monkeys, you like ponies
Maybe you don't like monsters so much
Maybe I used too many monkeys



Isn't it enough to know that I ruined a pony making a gift for you?

Oh, and I'm so into you
But I'm way too smart for you
Even my henchmen think I'm crazy
I'm not surprised that you agree
If you could find some way to be
A little bit less afraid of me
You'd see the voices that control me from inside my head
Say I shouldn't kill you yet

Picture the two of us alone inside my golden submarine



While up above the waves my doomsday squad ignites the atmosphere



And all the fools who lead their foolish lives may find it quite explosive



Well it won't mean half as much to me if I don't have you here


You know it isn't easy living here on Skullcrusher Mountain
Maybe you could cut me just a little slack
Would it kill you to be civil?
I've been patient, I've been gracious
And this mountain is covered with wolves



Hear them howling, my hungry children
Maybe you should stay and have another drink and think about me and you

Oh, and I'm so into you
But I'm way too smart for you
Even my henchmen think I'm crazy
I'm not surprised that you agree
If you could find some way to be
A little bit less afraid of me
You'd see the voices that control me from inside my head
Say I shouldn't kill you yet
I shouldn't kill you yet
I shouldn't kill you yet



And done...

I have had this project interfering and interrupting everything else until I could get it all out of my skull.  I am...spent.  It started when I was perusing ebay for Monsterpocalypse stuff when I had Coulton's music playing in the background, and I went 'Oh, these monkeys would be a good doomsday squad...' and the next thing I know, I was finding stuff for everything.

Extra points to whoever figures out why I have those particular numbers on the ape jump packs. 

I am now considering making some extra levels to my Fallout Vault, so that I can also use it as Skullcrusher Mountain, but that is a less intrusive mental conundrum.

Ha ha! Brilliant. So much barmy goodness. I was really starting to wonder what was going to turn up next. My favourites are the scientist on his podium and the damsel in distress. Who makes the apes in the green armour?

They are Monsterpocalypse figures, from the pre-painted collectible range.  The podium is a 'teleport pad' from a 3D printer I found on EBay.  This project was just FUN...

That is brilliant.

I'd forgotten how much fun Jonathan Coulton's stuff is. "First of May" is a favourite, which I will NOT link to from here - but go hit YouTube with safe search turned off and nobody easily offended/too young within earshot.  :D

Yeah, I have ended up buying everything he has done, but I am not going to do a 1st of May league...
