The Most Dangerous Box, Since Jack

Minion Militia Kit

Unbeknownst to almost everyone, the Minion Militia phenomenon silently swept the globe in late 2005. Despite sporadic sightings in the forests of Montana and the backwoods of Maine, the scope of the underground global network was unknown until a Minion Militia Kit was uncovered during in an Anti-Cube raid in April of 2006. According to Kaiju cult experts, the Minion Militia Kit heralds the arrival of a new breed of super fan. Not only do these Cube supporters wear scary facemasks and hooded Cube sweatshirts, but these free-willed humans stand ready to bare arms in the defense of Dr. Cube's Posse at a moments notice.

Incredibly, the Kaiju Mall got its hands on exactly 100 Minion Militia Kits. Each Kit includes a pleather Minion face mask, a hospital scrub shirt with a Cube and crossbones logo on the back, two Militia lapel pins, a coupon for Anti-Hero anti-freeze, a wet nap, and a limited edition, signed and number, "Minions Attack" poster by Vinnie Arnone. All these contents come packaged in a hand-screened collectable box. These kits are hand number, limited to 100, and a mere $40.

Bideo Evidence

Sure the dastardly Dr. Cube is promising to kill off a Kaiju Big Battel superstar at the upcoming Battel, but everyone knows that Kung-Fu Chicken Noodle is the Kaiju with the most kills on record. Many a monster has lost his life or limbs at the hands of the Killa Can. The proof is in the Bideo: check out the new Midori No Kaiju vs Kung-Fu Chicken Noodle video from Autumnal Shogun Showdown featuring Kung-Fu Chicken Noodle and the late great Midori No Kaiju. Viewer discretion is advised; gallons of red monster blood are shed.

Road to Ambition, Podcast-type

Several months ago, the Kaiju Commissioner proclaimed that Uchu Chu and Kung-Fu Chicken Noodle were to be the top co-contenders for the Kaiju Championship Belt. This decision caused quite an uproar amongst all five Kaiju Big Battel factions. Now, amid accusations of favoritism, the Commissioner has decided to open up the #1 contender spot to all comers, with a brand new Big Battel Tournament: Road to Ambition. Unibouzu, Dusto Bunny, and Force Trooper Robo, are just a few of the eligible contenders entered into the tournament. Whoever comes out on top of the Road to Ambition bracket, will go on to fight Dr. Cube for the Kaiju Championship Belt on May 26th.

In an effort to provide timely coverage of the Road to Ambition tournament, the Commissioner has announced the launch of the Podfighto! The first episode of this podcast, bring you Louden Noxious's play-by-play commentary for the first four of seven tournament fightos: American Beetle Vs Unibouzu, Soup Vs Dusto, Uchu Chu Vs Slo Feng, and Force Trooper Robo Vs a most unusual contestant (you'll have to hear it to believe it)! The three final fights of the Road to Ambition Tournament will be released in next week's Podfighto!

Question of the Week

Why do Kaiju have to die?

First Fighto Announced

The Kaiju Commissioner has announced the first fighto at the upcoming Big Battel. Kaiju's two greatest tag teams ever, Los Plantanos and The Apes of Wraths will do the tag-team tango at Anime Boston 2006. The freedom-fighting Plantain Twins have been itching for some retribution against Cube's menacing beasts ever since Dr. Cube's Posse kidnapped Silver Potato on their watch at Tinsel Town Showdown. Not only will the Plantain Twins be fighting the Apes of Wrath but they have also volunteered to provide security for the entire Boston cityscape, including the towering Prudential Center.

While the Plantain Twins are feeling confident, the Posse has an axe of their own to grind. Just last month, Pedro and Pablo sent one of Cube's Super Minions to the big Minion Militia camp in the sky.

Intern Promoted to Vegetius

After successfully training under American Beetle and defeating Call-Me-Kevin at the Xbox 360 Zero Hour Battel, the Hero Intern moved on to train under Kaiju's leading Hero, Neo Teppen. The Kaiju Commissioner is so pleased with the Intern's development under Teppen that he has scheduled The Hero Intern to take on the Rogue beast Vegitius at the upcoming Anime Boston Battel.

Vegitius has recently been accused of soiling the Hero camping site on the banks of the rustic Charles River, and the Commissioner feels the Intern needs to teach the feral beast a lesson in respecting other people's property. Will the Hero Intern be able to defeat the super heavy Vegitius or will he fail miserably and taint the entire Hero Intern program? Find out on May 26th!
